About the PPF calculator

The Public Provident Fund (PPF) is a government-backed savings scheme with a 15-year term. Deposits qualify for deduction under Section 80C (old tax regime), and the interest and maturity amount are tax-free.

This calculator assumes you deposit the same amount at the start of each year and that the interest rate stays the same.

How to use it

  1. Move the sliders, or type a value into each box.
  2. Watch the results and chart update as you go.
  3. Try different assumptions to see what changes the outcome most, then talk to us about a plan.

The formula

Each year: balance = (balance + deposit) × (1 + r)

  • r: annual PPF interest rate
  • Deposits made by 5 April earn interest for the whole year

Example

Investing ₹1,50,000 every year for 15 years at 7.1%, you invest ₹22,50,000 and the account could be worth about ₹40,68,209 at maturity.
