Yes, I think NSC is the right option as govt receives money FM investor and invest in other development tasks and earns revenue while deciding whatever rate of int it decides from time to time pay to public no liability at all always reduces rate of int whenever debt FM other sides increases.

Life insurance policy is a national debt, because it has to be rapy on the occurance of particular event. Similarly providnt fund is also needed to pay and also the govt bonds are needed to pay.

But I am not sure about nsc, because I feel it's also a future liability. I doubt the answere.

I think it is similar to different government bonds so it should be taken as a liability but I am not quite sure about it because not sure about the policy issued for national saving certificate.

Answer is Life insurance policies.

NSC is a part of National small savings funds of the government so as to raise funds from the public. Kisan Vikas Patra is also similiar to it.

National Savings Certificate is a certificate used for small savings and income tax saving investments in India. It is part of the postal savings system of Indian Postal Service.

I don't think so. NSC is a scheme, which provides tax deduction to the assessee.

LIC is a company, but the above given is a policy which have to be settled later.

You mean that pf LIC policies and long-term government bond is a debt? but I think long term govt bond is a debt, not NSC its public saving.

Yes I'm also agree with him because if there is no particular reason similarly the provident fund is also to pay the govt bonds.

Answer is life insurance policies. Other 3 are considered in calculating national debt. LIC is an independent corporation.
