Pradhan Mantri Vaya Vandana Yojana (PMVVY) is now available to senior citizens in its new avatar. Being the sole institution allowed to mobilize funds in the scheme, the Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) has come out with the details of the Pradhan Mantri Vaya Vandana Yojana (Modified 2020). PMVVY, which had earlier closed on March 31, 2020, was recently extended by the government for another three financial years till March 2023.
To invest one may approach any LIC agent or buy it directly from the insurer’s website. The extension of PMVVY will come as a relief to senior citizens as the interest rate on bank fixed deposits seems to be falling in a hurry.
