The Centre is soon likely to announce Aadhaar-based simplified Know Your Customer (KYC) norms for small savings schemes, in a bid to cut down compliance and attract more small investors into these schemes, Business Standard has learnt.

Additionally, banks and post offices will implement enhanced savings limits under Senior Citizens Savings Schemes and Monthly Income Schemes, and introduce the new Mahila Samman Savings Certificate from April 1, as announced in the 2023 Union Budget.

“Aadhaar-based simplified KYC is on the anvil, with an aim to increase access of small investors to small saving schemes,” said a senior government official.
