Imagine being able to give your child a massive financial head start in life, long before they even write their first resume or earn their first paycheck. We all want to secure our kids' futures, but between school fees and daily expenses, building a real, long-term safety net can feel overwhelming. 
## How exactly does NPS Vatsalya help?
NPS Vatsalya acts as a financial time machine, using a government-backed structure to turn small contributions into significant wealth through decades of compounding. By starting early, even a ₹1,000 monthly investment can grow into a fortune. Securely locked until the child turns 18, the account then transitions to them, providing a lifelong financial safety net from their first job through retirement.
