Abstract

The present study was conducted in Jorhat district of Assam. Total of 120 respondents were selected for the study. The objective of the study was to see the number of respondents belonging to two different professions (government & private) who have registered Atal Pension Yojana (APY) scheme and to study the attitude of respondents towards different aspects of APY scheme. It was found that most of the respondents under the two different professions have registered APY scheme. It was also found that they have favorable attitude towards different aspects of APY scheme. However, it was observed that some respondents have not yet registered the scheme as they are not familiar with the banking system and also due to low rate of interest of the scheme. Z- test also showed significant difference in the attitude towards the benefits through APY scheme between government and private employees.
