DigiLocker is a digital document wallet. In this, digital copies of important documents can be stored anywhere. According to the ministry, the e-PPO facility is built with Future software. Future Software is a single window platform for pensioners from the beginning of the pension process to the end of the process. This software will give retired employees the option to link their Digilocker to a future account and get an e-PPO.
