Tax Benefits Calculation of Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana

The deposited amount in the  Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana is eligible for a tax deduction of up to Rs. 1,50,000 per year under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act in the old regime. Below is the detailed explanation for the same: 

  • Tax Deduction under Section 80C: Deposits up to ₹1.5 lakh per annum are eligible for deduction under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
  • Tax-Free Interest and Maturity: The interest your money earns and the full amount you get at maturity are completely tax-free. SSY is an "EEE" scheme, exempt when you invest, exempt on interest, and exempt when you withdraw.

Example Tax Calculation

If your annual income is Rs. 7,50,000 and you have invested Rs. 1,35,000 in Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana, your taxable income would be calculated as follows:

  • Yearly Income = Rs. 7,50,000
  • Standard deduction = Rs. 50,000
  • Deduction under Section 80C for SSY = Rs. 1,35,000
  • Your final taxable income would be = Rs. 5,65,000

You will pay a tax of Rs. 33,800. If you had not invested in Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana, you would have paid a tax of Rs. 59,400.

In Policybazaar’s Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana calculator, you just need to enter the yearly investment amount, the age of the girl child, and the investment start year, and the calculator will show you the maturity amount instantly.

It simplifies complex calculations to help you effectively plan your finances for your daughter’s future needs.
  • What is Sukanya Rs. 10,000 per month?

    This means depositing Rs. 10,000 every month into the SSY account. Over the 15-year deposit period plus 6-year lock-in, this can grow to a significant corpus (potentially around Rs. 1 crore) with compounded interest at 8.2%.
  • How is Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana calculated by the post office?

    The Post Office SSY calculator applies the government-set interest rate to annual or monthly contributions over the 21-year tenure. It sums deposits and compounded interest each year to estimate the maturity amount.
  • What is Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana 1500 per month post office?

    Investing Rs. 1,500 monthly (Rs. 18,000 yearly) in SSY for 15 years can yield a maturity corpus of around Rs. 10-11 lakhs after 21 years, including compounded interest.
  • What is Sukanya 1000 per month?

    It refers to monthly contributions of Rs. 1,000 in the SSY account. Such deposits over 15 years with 8.2% interest can mature to about Rs. 5.4 lakhs after 21 years.
  • What is SSY 5000 per month?

    Investing Rs. 5,000 monthly (Rs. 60,000 annually) is a higher contribution level to build a larger corpus for the girl child. The maturity amount and interest earned can be calculated using the SSY calculator for this input.
  • How does the Policybazaar SSY Calculator calculate the maturity amount?

    It calculates maturity by compounding the annual deposits with the current SSY interest rate (compounded yearly) over the investment period of typically 21 years. It adds up all deposits and interest accrued each year to provide the total maturity amount you can expect at the end of the scheme.
  • What is the deposit 2000 per month in Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana?

    Depositing Rs. 2,000 monthly results in a maturity amount close to Rs. 10.78 lakhs after 21 years at 8.2% interest, assuming consistent monthly deposits for 15 years followed by a 6-year lock-in period.
  • What is the deposit for SSY after 15 years?

    You can only deposit into the SSY account for 15 years from the account opening date. After 15 years, no further deposits are allowed, but the balance continues to earn interest until maturity at 21 years.
  • How much money will I get after 21 years of Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana?

    Maturity depends on your total annual deposits and interest. For example, investing Rs. 50,000 annually for 15 years at 8.2% yields about Rs. 23.94 lakhs. Investing the maximum Rs. 1.5 lakh annually can grow to around Rs. 69.28 lakhs or more after 21 years.
