SUKANYA SAMRIDDHI YOJANA

    Invest Top ELSS Funds Online 

Interest rate: 8.3% Tenure: 14 years

If you have a daughter below 10 years, the Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana is a better option than the PPF because it offers a higher interest rate. Like the PPF, the interest earned is tax free and there is an annual cap of `1.5 lakh on the investment. Accounts can be opened in any post office or designated banks with a minimum investment of `1,000. A parent can open an account for a maximum of two daughters, but the combined investment in the two accounts cannot exceed `1.5 lakh in a year.

Some experts argue that the debt-based Sukanya scheme is not the best way to save for a long term goal. This is true, because equity-based options can deliver higher returns. This is why experts advise that the SSY should be used in combination with other investments, such as equity funds, for saving for a child's future goals. The good part is that the girl child tag lends a sense of purpose to the investment. The maturity proceeds of other investments are often squandered. On the other hand, the Sukanya scheme helps a family save the daughter's education and marriage.
