PPF – MINOR , urgent help required

POSTED BY kaka kaka ON March 27, 2012 5:24 pm COMMENTS (4)

I have a PPF account in my son’s name and another PPF Account in my name was closed 3 years ago . Although i have been getting interest in My son’s account at least that is being mentioned in the booklet .But recently i came to know that both accounts combined will get interest upto 70,000 (from this year 1,00,000 ) . Effectively since this is the only saving scheme i invested in , i made payments upto maximum amount that is 70,000 . Will my son get interest or that will be deducted when he withdraws the entire amount on maturity from ppf

      Dear Kaka Kaka, as on date there is only one PPF account in operation which is your son’s account & you are merely a guardian for this account. Your own account is not in operation, then where is the problem? So no reason to worry, you can make full 1L Rs. investment in this PPF account of your son & after completion of initial 15 Y period, you (your Son) ‘ll have the option to either close it or renew it for another block of 5Y each time till You (he) feel the need to continue.

      Thanks
