Debashish Panda, secretary, department of financial services, also said that the contribution for employee pensions under NPS is hiked to 14% from 10% earlier.

“Pension payouts to bank employees could increase to Rs 30,000-35,000 from the earlier cap of Rs 9,284. PSBs’ contribution for employee pensions under NPS hiked to 14% from 10% earlier,” said DFS Secretary.

In the annual performance review, Sitharaman also raised her concerns over the piling up of deposits in the states of eastern India, for which she stated that the credit too needs to be expanded.

“Banks have been asked to create state-wise plans for the North East focusing on logistics, exports from the area,” the finance minister said.

She stated that the industries have the option of raising funds even from outside the banking sector in today’s time. Even banks are raising funds through various avenues. These new aspects need to be studied to target credit where it is needed, she said.
