In times such as this, when everyone wants to save as much money as they can. Here’s a savings plan that will get you as much as Rs 26 lakh in return for an investment of merely Rs 1000 per month. The Public Provident Fund (PPF) is one such scheme that ensures guaranteed return. National Savings Organization in 1968 was directed at making small savings a profitable investment option. IF the tenure is chosen properly, PPF, in the long term, will yield very good returns.



Public Provident Fund currently offers an interest rate of 7.1 per cent. A minimum of Rs 500 and a maximum of Rs 1.5 lakh per annum can be deposited every year in a PPF account at present. A PPF account matures in 15 years, after which you can either withdraw all your money or extend the PPF account for a block of 5 years each.

1. If one invests Rs 1,000 every month for 15 years, then they will deposit Rs 1.80 lakh by the end of 15 years.

On the said amount, they will get Rs 3.25 lakh. Their interest in this at 7.1 will be Rs 1.45 lakh.

2. Extend PPF for 5 years after maturity

Now if one extends PPF for 5 years, and continues to invest Rs 1000 every month, then after 5 years, the amount of Rs 3.25 lakh will increase to Rs 5.32 lakh.

3. PPF extended second time for 5 years again

After 5 years, if one continues the PPF investment again for 5 years, the money in their PPF account will increase to Rs 8.24 lakh.

4. PPF extended for the third time for 5 years





If one extends this PPF account for the third time, for 5 years, then the total investment period will be 30 years while the amount in PPF account will increase to Rs 12.36 lakh.

5. PPF extended for the fourth time for 5 years

If one extends the PPF account yet another 5 years after 30 years, the account will increase to Rs 18.15 lakh.

6. PPF extended for the fifth time for 5 years

After 35 years, if one extends the PPF account for 5 more years, and keeps investing Rs 1000 a month, the money in their PPF account will increase to Rs 26.32 lakh.

By this, an investment of Rs 1000 that you started at the age of 20 will be Rs 26.32 lakhs till retirement.
