Reclaim National Insurance

Hi Gurus,
I have been paying NI for the past 4 years and am here on a tier 2 Visa (WP for the first 3 years). If I am relocating back to India, is it possible to reclaim anything on the National Insurance I have paid so far?

as I understand it, you can only claim tax or NI back if you leave part way through the tax year and as a result did not earn enough to reach the relevent thresholds for NI and income tax contributions. If you earnt more than your personal allowance in the tax year when you leave the UK, then you are unlikely to be able to get anything back.
