Key points from the chart

  • The account holder deposits ₹1,000 per month or ₹12,000 per year for the first 15 years only. No deposits are made in the last 6 years until maturity.
  • The interest earned is compounded annually. The current SSY interest rate of 8.2% p.a. is considered for this calculation.
  • At the end of the 21-year maturity period, the account holder would have invested a total of ₹1.8 lakh (₹1,80,000).
  • The maturity amount after 21 years will be approximately ₹6.56 lakh (₹6,56,205), out of which nearly ₹4.76 lakh (₹4,76,205) is the interest earned.

So by investing just ₹1,000 per month in Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana for the first 15 years, the account will grow to over ₹6.5 lakh by the end of the 21-year maturity period, providing a return of more than 3.6 times the invested amount of ₹1.8 lakh.
