Team ET Money, how are you so good!!?? Covering all the aspects of a topic in depth with such clarity & fluidity within 17 minutes, consistently every video after video, must surely require tons of expertise and efforts. Thank you very much team ET Money!
Thank you Kunal Mathuria. We are investors ourselves (a lot like the viewers we create content for), so it becomes very easy to bring out relevancy in the content. Afterall the problems, dilemma and curiosity that others face is the same that we go through.
@@ETMONEY hi ETMoney, can you please respond to my comment I posted couple of days ago. I want to know what’s the rule to withdraw money for a NRI. Can a NRI withdraw the money before maturity?
This is just so wonderful. I'm still a new PPf Subscriber having started in March 2021 and knew some of the basics. But still, hatsoff to the team for coming up with this video which showed how much brains has gone behind a simple scheme like PPF and I'm sure the knowledge gained has been nothing short of an eye-opener. Great job and looking forward to more such videos. On a side note, I've even started my investment journey through ET money after getting impressed by their informative videos.
1. Videos are Simple, Elegant, Informative. 2. You are a genius. 3. So much good information provided in a simple manner. 4. One suggestion: Rather than moving the presenter of the video left and right, try to keep him at one side. Makes the viewer concentrate better on the video. 5. Great presenter; he is one of the best speakers. Very clear and looks & sounds sincere.
Withdrawal query: Video says we can withdraw 50% of prev year closing balance. Whereas I was told that it is 50% of 4 year earliers closing balalnce. Please clarify.
@@ETMONEY I went to SBI and they gave me only 50% of what I had on 31st March 2018 saying you can withdraw this much amont. Kindly Confirm if it's not true I would visit them.
This is a headache. Three sources are giving three different information 1. www.cnbctv18.com/personal-finance/are-ppf-withdrawals-taxable-in-india-9860961.htm says that its simply 50% of the amount accumulated in the account at the end of the previous financial year 2. www.livemint.com/money/ask-mint-money/ppf-partial-withdrawal-premature-closure-rules-explained-11626578171960.html says the amount which you can withdraw from your PPF account shall be restricted to higher of fifty per cent of the balance standing at the end of the fourth year immediately preceding the year of withdrawal or at the end of the preceding year. 3. And in complete opposite, article economictimes.indiatimes.com/wealth/invest/how-to-partially-withdraw-from-your-ppf/articleshow/67205654.cms?from=mdr says that the total amount eligible for withdrawal in a particular financial year is the lower of: a) 50% of the PPF account balance at the end of the financial year, preceding the current year, or b) 50% of the PPF account balance at the end of the fourth financial year, preceding the current year. So one is saying 50%, the other is saying lower while the third source is saying higher. Please have a check and do share if you have a better source/info on the same. Thx
What a clear and lucid explanation.... this has cleared many doubts of mine and hopefully of other investors also... thanks ET Money and Shankar Nath in particular for creating such a useful stuff... thanks :)
Suddenly after seeing this video it came to my mind that if we plan in a better way instead of keeping all emergency funds in FD if 5 years of PPF is nearing or completed we can see it an option to keep some part of emergency funds in ppf as we can withdraw 50%
Liked this video even before watching anything because I know Team ET Money always delivers quality content for sure. I have drilled down your channel & watched almost all videos in last 1 month. Thank u Team ET Money for delivering quality content all the times.
Being a PPF subscriber, I didn't knew many of the points. Always grateful for ET Money and their team for seriously making very informative video each time. Nowadays, am sure that your videos will be very good only so I click on like button as soon as I open it 😁 Great job 👌
Hi thanks for clarity on how much i can put minimum every year, also please correct me the amount which i have added this year and the amount which i have received with interest in last year 31st march, and the total amount will be calculated with interest on 31st march and added to my account correct?
As usual another informative video. Just to know more on this, I always belive it is a great financial instrument for the government to raise money considering the lock-in period. The only problem for people like us is the lowering interest rate since 2010. If the government increase the interest rate and also increase the cap (1.5 lac to 2lac) then there will be good fund raising from this financial instrument. And yes this they can do gradually. Also for a retail people like us this will give more benifits like EEE benefit with higher rate of interest and higher cap. A win-win situation for both and may be good for economy.
Thanks. The story we heard was that the original retirement vehicle that the Government of India had designed was the Employee Provident Fund. But then it saw that there are millions who don't fit in this EPF framework as they are self employed or in very small organizations (say 4-5 members). For this, the PPF scheme was created in 1968. So, thats a little history
Thanks for detailed info. I have a query. 1) At what age of kid/ minor a PPF account can be openned. 2) If I take PPF account in my kid name how many times 5 years block can be extended. 3) How many max years it can be continued.

8:50 Is interest calculated from 5th or 6th of the month ? In different websites , it is mentioned differently. If I deposit lumpsum on 5th of April , say 11am morning , will it still be considered for that month's interest calculation or only considered next month ?
We both (me and my husband) are sr citizens have PPF account opened in year 1978 & 1983 respectively renewed more than twice till now. We are now thinking of settling in USA forever. May come back for upto six months in 1-2 years if our health permits. My questions to you are 1) Can we continue our renewed PPF accounts by paying 150000 every year and get the relief under section 80C ? 2) Can we extend them again on completion of 5 year period? 3) If not can we keep the account as it is without adding money to it and for how long?
Thank you, very crisp & informational! After taking print out of online application, SBI (not sure about other banks) gives you another supplementary form to be filled by hand, & submitted in person along with self attested xerox of IDs. After that it is matter of a few minutes.
Very lucid explanation. Thank you so very much.. I would like to know whether we have to submit any application to the bank where the account is maintained on maturity to get the total amount transferred to his SB Account?

Hello I have a query. My friend wants to open a ppf account on his son's name who is 3 months old. My friend doesn't have any active bank account now,so what will be the procedure to open a ppf account? Thank You in advance.You guys are doing awesome work.
Hello Team, in case of partial withdraws, does the tax benefit availed under 80 C in earlier years get revoked. Also is the withdrawn amount interest component taxable? Request for your guidance.
If the interest rate is changed by government. Does it apply to already opened account also? Or the rate will not change until end of your maturity period.
Very insightful. Thanks for the knowledge. However in the scenario of falling interest rates and a long lock-in period, do you still advise to invest in PPF or should we choose debt fund? For tax savings, I am investing in ELSS through etmoney app.
Dear Mr. Nath, on the interest calculation, if deposit on the 6th of a month, you mentioned that months interest will not be given. However, in the next month if I deposit on 2nd, will the interest of this month be compounded from the previous month and paid, if yes, do you really lose interest at all ?
Hi. You don't make interest for the first month - that's a loss. For example - say you deposit 1000 rupees in month1 (on the 6th). No interest is paid for that month. So balance remains at 1000. In month 2 (paid on 2nd), you deposit another 1000 rupees. So 1000+1000 = 2,000 is which you get interest of say 20 rupees. So what did you miss? By depositing earlier than 6th, you could have got 10 rupees interest in month 1 too. So the interest calculation in month 2 would have been on 1000+10+1000 = 2010. So yes, you do lose money by not depositing it within the first few days. And as you rightly said, the compounding factor will ensure that this loss becomes bigger over time
Just a quick question, is it possible to have separate PPF account for husband and wife, like minor is there a condition that the total should be 1.5 lakhs or can have more
Hi Etmoney, can one extend with a mix of with contribution and without contribution after maturity For e.g. after maturity for the first 5 year block can it be without contribution however the next 5 year block can it be with contribution

Hi... Your videos are very informative... Thanks for the research. Could you please clarify how interest is calculated on PPF investment? I invest 10000 at 7.1 in year 1 and in year 2 say the int rate becomes 8, then will the 10000+int get int at rate 8, or this 10000 keeps getting 7.1 until maturity?
Good presentation and well articulated. Wanted a confirmation on my following observation - assuming that I am withdrawing 1.5L from my savings account for investing in PPF then the the best day for investing in PPF is the 4th day of the month (and not any day between the 1st and 5th as is commonly understood) since the 1.5L which would be earning interest from the 1st to the 3rd of the month in the savings account while if put before that in PPF it would end up not earning any interest. Is my understanding correct ?
Thanks..This was quite informative. Liked and subscribed. I want to to know in case of death of fmly member, which authority can we approach for any grievances. Any guidance would be highly appreciated

Dear ETMoney, Have a question. I'm currently in NRI status and didn't open any PPF a/c. Planning to come for vacation and stay for 3 months in India and come back. During my vacation days Can I open PPF a/c & later continue as NRI?. What is the open option for me . Please assist
Hi. As far as we know, non-residents cannot open a PPF account. You might want to take a 2nd opinion with your nearest bank on this
Hi can you clarify if I submit an amount on 5th of month, will the interest of that month be calculated for that amount or not
Hi. Waiting for your reply
Yes it will be calculated.
Hi... Your videos are very informative... Thanks for the research.
Could you please clarify how interest is calculated on PPF investment? I invest 10000 at 7.1 in year 1 and in year 2 say the int rate becomes 8, then will the 10000+int get int at rate 8, or this 10000 keeps getting 7.1 until maturity?
Thanks. The account balance will be used in calculating the interest for the year
Quite comprehensive 👍
Glad you liked it. Thx!
Can we get the roi 7.1 throughout the 15 years.. Is earlier invested persons getting the same? Please reply
The government decides on the interest rate every quarter depending on the interest rates and bond yields.
Good presentation and well articulated. Wanted a confirmation on my following observation - assuming that I am withdrawing 1.5L from my savings account for investing in PPF then the the best day for investing in PPF is the 4th day of the month (and not any day between the 1st and 5th as is commonly understood) since the 1.5L which would be earning interest from the 1st to the 3rd of the month in the savings account while if put before that in PPF it would end up not earning any interest. Is my understanding correct ?
Thank you. I am not well-versed with bank savings account interest calculations, you might have to check this one with some banker.
Can we open another PPF account after the initial 15 Yrs completion?
