What is National Savings Certificate?
The National Savings Certificate also called NSC is a type of savings bond scheme that enables customers, usually low- to middle-income investors, to make investments while saving taxes under Section 80c. The NSC, like other fixed-income investments such as Fixed Deposits, provides assured return and complete capital protection.
