How can married couples get an annual pension of Rs 72,000 under the Pradhan Mantri Shram Yogi Maan-Dhan (PM-SYM) scheme?
Here is a simple calculation to understand how a couple can earn an annual pension of Rs 72,000. For example, if a person is 30 years old, the monthly contribution to the plans would be around Rs 100 per month-a couple thus spends Rs 200 per month. So, while the individual contribution would be Rs 1200 in a year, after attaining 60 years, the individual would get Rs 36,000 as an annual pension (annual pension of Rs 72,000 for a couple).
