How the PPF Calculator works

Public Provident Fund is a 15-year EEE account with a yearly contribution cap. The calculator compounds annual (or monthly-equivalent) deposits at the PPF rate you enter — defaulting to the last encoded notification.

Formula / method. Year-end balance = (opening + deposit) × (1 + r). Repeat for 15 years. Extension is in 5-year blocks after maturity.

When to use it. Use it for 80C planning and for a long, tax-free debt allocation. It is not a substitute for the bank/post-office passbook.

How to run a comparison

  1. Open PPF Calculator from Home search, the Finance Studio hub, or this URL.
  2. Copy amounts, rates or dates from a document you already have — not a round marketing figure.
  3. Read the headline result and any breakdown (schedule, slabs, or intermediate rows).
  4. Change one input at a time so you can see what actually moves the answer.
  5. Cross-check with a related calculator below, then confirm statutory rates before you act.

Nothing you type is uploaded for server-side processing. Save or screenshot an output if you need it later; we do not keep a server-side history.

Notes and assumptions

Rate can be changed by the government each quarter. The tool holds the rate you typed for the whole 15 years unless you re-run it.

Results are estimates for education and planning only. They are not financial, tax, medical, or legal advice. Slabs, scheme rates and product terms change; verify against official notifications or a qualified professional before acting.
