Equity (Class E) tier-1 has averaged ~12.5% over 10 yrs; Government bonds (Class G) ~7.5%; Corporate bonds (Class C) ~9%. Auto-choice life-cycle funds glide from equity-heavy to debt as you age.

60% of the corpus is tax-free at age 60. The remaining 40% must be used to buy an annuity, which is then taxed at slab. Net post-tax beats most other long-term retirement vehicles.
