1. Taxpayers cannot get Atal pensions

Beginning on October 1, those who have filed income tax returns will not be eligible for the Atal Pension Yojana. That is, those whose income exceeds Rs. 2.50 lakh will not be allowed to enrol in the Atal Pension Yojana. Any Indian citizen between the ages of 18 and 40 may apply to this government pension plan under the current regulations, regardless of whether he or she pays income tax. A monthly pension of 5,000 rupees is offered under this programme.

2. Pay with tokens rather than cards

The RBI has directed that the token system for card payments be put into place starting on October 1. After implementation, customers’ credit card information cannot be stored by merchants, payment aggregators, or payment gateways. Its goal is to stop fraud in internet banking.

3. Mutual Funds Need Nominations

Beginning on October 1, it will be necessary for people investing in mutual funds to provide nomination information following new regulations from market regulator SEBI. Investors who fail to comply must fill out a declaration form stating that they will not use the nomination facility.

4. Possibility of higher interest on small savings

Following the Reserve Bank’s hike in the repo rate, banks raised the interest rates on savings accounts and fixed deposits (FDs). Interest rates on the RD, KCC, PPF and other small savings plans offered by the post office may rise in such a circumstance. On September 30, the Finance Ministry will make a statement. Thus, even modest savings can generate substantial interest.

5. Demat account double verification

To protect the owners of Demat accounts, the market regulator SEBI has announced the implementation of the requirement for double verification as of October 1. Demat account holders will only be permitted to log in under this condition following double verification.

6. Gas cylinder prices may get cheaper 

Each month’s first is used to examine the cost of LPG cylinders. Due to the weakening of the prices of crude oil and natural gas in this situation, it is anticipated that both home and commercial gas cylinder costs will fall this time.

7. Mandatory NPS e-enrollment

The PFRDA has modified the e-nomination procedure for both public and private sector personnel. This will take effect on October 1, 2022. The Nodal Office will have the choice to accept or reject the NPS account holder’s e-nomination request following the new NPS e-nomination procedure. The e-nomination request will be approved in the Central Record Keeping Agencies system if the Nodal Office does not take action against it within 30 days of its allocation (CRAs).

8. CNG costs may increase

After this week’s review, natural gas prices could reach all-time highs. Electricity, fertilisers, and compressed natural gas for automobiles are all made from natural gas. The cost of the domestically produced gas is set by the government. On October 1, the government must update the price of gas. The price that will be paid for gas generated from the state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation’s (ONGC) older fields might increase from $6.1 to $9 per unit (Million British Thermal Unit). For regulated locations, this will be the highest rate ever. Every six months, the government sets the price of gas (1 April and 1 October). Based on the rates of the previous year for gas surplus countries like the US, Canada, and Russia, this price is set on a quarterly basis.
