Frequently Asked Questions

What is the lock-in period for a PPF account?

A Public Provident Fund (PPF) account has a standard 15-year maturity lock-in period. After completing the initial 15 years, you can choose to extend the account in blocks of 5 years at a time, with or without fresh contributions, indefinitely.

Are PPF returns taxable in India?

No. PPF qualifies for the highly coveted Exempt-Exempt-Exempt (EEE) tax category in India. This means that: 1) Your annual deposits (up to ₹1.5 Lakhs) qualify for a tax deduction under Section 80C; 2) The annual compounding interest earned is fully tax-exempt; and 3) The entire final maturity corpus you withdraw is tax-free.
