NSC provides total capital protection and interest guarantees. They are unable to provide returns that outpace inflation, like tax-saving mutual funds and the National Pension System, like the majority of fixed income plans. </p><p class="text-base ">The National Savings Certificate is a personal savings program that the government has encouraged. As a result, neither trusts nor Hindu Undivided Families (HUFs) can invest in it. Additionally, NRIs (non-resident Indians) cannot buy NSC certificates. The program is exclusively available to independent Indian residents. </p><div class="mb-2.5 py-1"><div class="grid grid-cols-12 gap-2.5"><div class=" lg:col-span-6 md:col-span-6 col-span-12"><div
