The short answer

Depositing ₹1.5 lakh/year in PPF at 7.1% for 15 years builds about ₹40.7 lakh — and every rupee is tax-free (EEE status). Extend in 5-year blocks after maturity and compounding keeps working; many people run PPF for 25–30 years as their debt anchor.

How to use the ppf calculator

  1. Enter your yearly deposit.
  2. Set the rate and duration.
  3. See the tax-free maturity value.
