Ways to Login to your NPS Account

Many major banks have provided an option on their respective online banking website for NPS subscribers which, for now, directs the users to either the Karvy NPS Portal or the NSDL NPS Portal depending on which provider the bank is registered with. Hence, there is currently no separate bank-wise NPS Login portal for use by subscribers of the National Pension System. Given below are the different ways to login-
