Initially, it catered only to government employees, but later expanded its services to all Indian nationals and NRIs, including self-employed individuals. PFRDA focuses on promoting, developing, and regulating organized pension funds, such as the National Pension System (NPS), to meet the old-age income requirements of people in a sustainable manner.
