   Do Transfer online.

   The 1st to 5th of each month is the right time to move funds to PPF account. Having said that if one is not able to do bulk deposits it is still okay to consider PPF like a SIP and invest some amount each month.That way your corpus gets built.

      PPF interest is calculated monthly on the lowest balance between the end of the 5th day and last day of month, however the total interest in the year is added back to PPF only at the year-end. So earliar is always always better. read more on this at https://www.jagoinvestor.com/2012/02/how-ppf-interest-is-calculated-video.html

   Dear Santtu, for the current FY, now 1st to 5th october is your possible best shot. From next FY, make it a habit to invest in a single shot between 1st to 5th April to earn full FY’s interest.

   Thanks

   Ashal
