Yes, eligible...
The good news is that now senior citizens above age 65 (up to 70 years)are also allowed to open a National Pension System (NPS) account.Now any Indian Citizen, resident or non-resident and Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) between the age of 65-70 years can also join NPS and continue or defer their NPS Account up to the age of 75 years.
