How to Maximize the PPF Return?

Maximum return can be earned from PPF Account by following a few basic steps-
  • ·         The amount deposited in the account is calculated on monthly bases but the amount is reflected at the end of the financial year. Therefore, depositing the amount at the beginning of the financial year will provide more interest than monthly deposits
  • ·         If you decide to deposit on monthly bases then you must deposit the amount before 5th of every month to earn interest for that month.
  • ·         Open your PPF Account as early as possible. If you are a parent then you can also open PPF account in behalf of your child.
  • ·         If you want to take a Personal Loan then opt for the PPF Loan as the interest rate on PPF Loan is 2% more than the interest rate of that year which is way less than the Personal loan interest rate.
