Government Savings Scheme Calculators for India

India's post office and government-backed savings schemes offer some of the safest and most tax-efficient investment options available. Understanding the returns, lock-in periods, and eligibility conditions of each scheme is essential before investing. Our calculators make this easy.

PPF Calculator

The Public Provident Fund (PPF) is one of India's oldest and most trusted long-term savings instruments. With a 15-year lock-in period, tax-free interest, and Section 80C deduction on contributions, it is a cornerstone of most Indian middle-class financial plans. Our PPF Calculator shows your year-wise balance, cumulative interest earned, and maturity value based on your annual contribution and the current PPF interest rate.

Sukanya Samriddhi Account Calculator

The Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana (SSY) is a government scheme designed to encourage saving for a girl child's education and marriage. Contributions earn a higher interest rate than PPF, are tax-deductible under Section 80C, and the maturity proceeds are fully tax-free. The calculator shows the projected maturity amount based on your annual deposit.

NSC, SCSS, and KVP

The National Savings Certificate (NSC) is a 5-year fixed-income instrument available at post offices, offering guaranteed returns. The Senior Citizen Savings Scheme (SCSS) offers one of the highest interest rates for Indians aged 60+, paid quarterly. The Kisan Vikas Patra (KVP) doubles your investment at a fixed tenure. Our calculators for each of these tools show maturity value, interest earned, and effective yield.

Atal Pension Yojana

The Atal Pension Yojana (APY) is a pension scheme for the unorganised sector. Based on your age and chosen pension amount (₹1,000–₹5,000/month), the calculator shows your required monthly contribution.

All interest rates used are the latest officially declared rates. These tools are for informational purposes — always verify with the official India Post or government portal before investing.
