Question
Which of the following are the powers and functions of
the Authority as laid down under the PFRDA Act?Solution
Section 14. Duties, powers and functions of Authority: (2) Without prejudice to the generality of the provisions contained in sub-section (1), the powers and functions of the Authority shall include-- (a) regulating the National Pension System and the pension schemes to which this Act applies; (b) approving the schemes, the terms and conditions thereof and laying down norms for the management of the corpus of the pension funds, including investment guidelines under such schemes; (c) registering and regulating intermediaries; (d) issuing to an intermediary, on application, a certificate of registration and renewing, modifying, withdrawing, suspending or cancelling such registration; (e) protecting the interests of subscribers by-- (i) ensuring safety of the contribution of subscribers to various schemes of pension funds to which this Act applies; (ii) ensuring that the intermediation and other operational costs under the National Pension System are economical and reasonable; (f) establishing mechanism for redressal of grievances of subscribers to be determined by regulations; (g) promoting professional or organisations connected with the pension system; (h) adjudication of disputes between intermediaries and between intermediaries and subscribers; (i) collecting data and requiring the intermediaries to collect such data and undertaking and commissioning studies, research and projects; (j) undertaking steps for educating subscribers and the general public on issues relating to pension, retirement savings and related issues and training of intermediaries; (k) standardising dissemination of information about performance of pension funds and performance benchmarks; (l) regulating the regulated assets; (m) levying fees or other charges for carrying out the purposes of this Act; (n) specifying by regulations the form and manner in which books of account shall be maintained and statement of accounts shall be rendered by intermediaries; (o) calling for information from, undertaking inspection of, conducting inquiries and investigations including audit of, intermediaries and other entities or organizations connected with pension funds; (p) exercising such other powers and functions as may be prescribed.
I). p2 - 20p + 51 = 0,
II). 2q2 - 7q + 6 = 0
Equation 1: x² - 90x + 2025 = 0
Equation 2: y² - 88y + 1936 = 0
1.3wx = 40 – wy
2. b2 = 2b + p
3. d2 + d = q
Now, observe the given conditions:
One root of equation...
I. x³= ((4)5+ (15)³)/(3)4
II. 8y³=(-13)3÷ √1521+ (3y)³Â
I. 4x2 + 3√7 x-7 =0
II. 7y2 + 4√7 y-5=0
- Suppose both the roots of q² + kq + 49 = 0 are real and equal, then determine the value of 'k'.
If x² + 2x + 9 = (x – 2) (x – 3), then the resultant equation is:
I. x3 = 1728
II. y2 – 15y + 56 = 0
- If the quadratic equation x² + 18x + n = 0 has real and equal roots, what is the value of n?
In the question, two equations I and II are given. You have to solve both the equations to establish the correct relation between 'p' and 'q' and choose...
