About Atal Pension Yojana Calculator

The Atal Pension Yojana (APY) Calculator computes the monthly contribution required to achieve a guaranteed pension of ₹1,000 to ₹5,000 per month after age 60. APY is a government-backed pension scheme primarily for unorganized sector workers, offering guaranteed lifelong pension with co-contribution of 50% of total contribution or ₹1,000 per year (whichever is lower) for eligible subscribers. The calculator shows contribution amounts for all five pension slabs based on the subscriber's entry age.

Atal Pension Yojana, launched on May 9, 2015, is administered by the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA). The scheme provides a guaranteed minimum pension ranging from ₹1,000 to ₹5,000 per month, depending on the subscriber's choice. Earlier, the government co-contributed 50% of the subscriber's contribution (up to ₹1,000/year) for those who joined before December 31, 2015. The spouse is eligible to continue the account or claim the corpus on the subscriber's death. Our calculator helps determine the optimal contribution for your desired pension level.
