The 1st method will give you more interest , for the simple reason that earliar the money got into your PPF account. Its always going to give you more interest if you put more money in PPF earliar .
Don’t think so much about interest. The small (very small) difference in your case will not have big impact in you. If you want to start just start it. THINK SIMPLE !!!
thanks for the reply but can u say which method is best
Dear Gnanesh, in addition to your first method, try to invest always between 1st to 5th of every month & also try to invest max. at the start of the FY i.e. in the month of april or May to get higher interest.
Thanks
