    Initial plan is for 15 years only. Towards the end you have the option to continue in 5-yr blocks. I think you’ll need to fill in a form to make this subscription.

    2.When its mature the amount is more then 50 lac.this all amount is tax free & taxable.

    All tax free.

    3. Only deposit value taxable & only interest are taxable and both are tax free

    Both the principal deposits and earned interests are tax free.

    The entire amount receivable on maturity (principal + interest) is tax free as per current tax laws. However this might change in future if and when the proposed Direct Tax Code becomes legally operational.

    I think he wants to ask whether the amount he deposited is taxable or only the interest earned on maturity is taxable.

    I didn’t get your question.
