New Delhi, Jan 17 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) has notified the point of presence (PoP) regulations for introducing a new simplified system of only one registration for the National Pension System instead of multiple registrations required earlier, the Finance Ministry said on Wednesday.
