    Good Scheme by the government. This is to promote the Education for the Girl Child which is below par compared to the Education for the Male Child.
    This investment will support the Girl Child during her Wedding and thus will relieve the tension of the parents of accumulating money for the same.
    The best part of the scheme is that one cannot withdraw before the maturity and thus will be utilised specifically for the purpose intended.
    The scheme will give 9.1 compound interest every year, which means,
    If one invest 10000 per year then it becomes 10000 * 14 = 1,40,000 (Premium paying term is 14 years) and the interest will be 1,45,926. So total amount becomes 1,40,000 + 1,45,926 = 2,85,926. After 7 years 15-21, 0 investment, however the interest will be 2,40,123. Thus total amount after the maturity will be 5,26,049 for an annual investment of 10000.

  2. preethy h pillai says:

He also wants to keep this account active till 21 years from the account opening date (or till Child’s age of 25 years). He wants to know, what could be the total approximate interest amount and total maturity amount that he would accumulate under SSA?

    Interest Calculation Sukanya Samriddhi Account – Yearly contribution

  9. Tejas says:

    I had compared the same with LIC. And I found LIC better than the sukanya samriddhi.
    Here is the comparison. If I have missed somewhere let me know.

    Sukanya Samrudhi Yojana

    Its a Post Office New Scheme
    Sukanya Samrudhi yojana…
    9.1% Rate of Interest Compounded…

    For example Pay Rs 12000 for 14yrs & Get Rs 6lac on 21st yr…

    ======================
    LIC has better option than this….
    ======================

    1. Payment Term
    —————————

    In post you have to pay Rs.12000 for 14 years

    In LIC you have to pay Rs.22500 but for 9 years only

    2. Insurance
    —————————

    In case of death of Father

    In post family still have to pay 12000 per year till 14th year

    In LIC no need to pay and family gets 6 lacs immediately in case of accidental death (in case of natural death 3 lacs plus bonus)

    Hence concept of insurance is more important.

    3. TAX FREE RETURNS
    —————————

    In LIC
    premium – 22500
    Need to pay – 9yrs
    Total premium – 2lac

    On 21st year
    get Rs 6,32,000 totally TAX FREE.

    In Post
    premium – 12000
    Need to pay – 14 yrs
    Total premium – 1.80 lac

    On 21st year
    get Rs 6,07,000 TAXABLE

    4. Gauranteed Calculation
    —————————

    In post 9.01% gauranteed for 2014-15 next year onwards it may change

    In post calculation is based on bonus and bonus history of LIC is gaurateed

  10. N P Singh chandigarh says:

    I have two grand daughters.My son is in private job and daughter-in-law on contact service. I am retired officer from BSNL and want to deposit in sukanya samridhi accounts. Can I deposit amount in this account and take benefit under 80C of incometax

    np singh

  11. A P TALPADE says:

    Clarification required:

    If, during the financial year, a maximum deposit of Rs 1,50,000/ is made in the daughter’s account and in subsequent years no deposit is made, is this allowed?

    Or, like PPF account, the parent needs to keep the account alive by making deposits of minimum amount every year upto 21 years.

    Please clarify

  12. Nisha Sahaay says:

    The government is doing a great job now a day’s especially for urban area and common peoples. They announced so many schemes and plans in last 4 – 5 months like Jan Dhan Yojana, Swacchha Bharat Abhiyaan and the most important Sukanya Samriddhi Account under the mission of Beti Bachao Beto Padhao. the best thing is the tax benefit. The government start providing tax deduction for this account under section 80C of the income tax act 1961.

    To-day I went to open SSA Account, nearby post office. Shown DOB certificate which was issued by Embassey of India, from Riyadh Saudi Arabia. child born at Riyadh. The Post Master rejected to accept the birth certificate, saying that there is no clarification came from Govt? to accept it. Or you have provide the school certificate saying that child is admitted for schooling and birth date. This means that, we do not have believe on our own documents. The lot of NRI families, give the birth to child at india and live in aboard for long period, if they provide the birth certificate they will accept it and open the SSA account for them. they can deposit the maximum amount & obtain the benefits of interest rate.
    Even if we are citizen of India, have to prove them again and again we are Indian and staying in India. for each and every thing. Why do not Govt to make on identity Record and it should be recorded each and every entry of the citizen in record and it will identity card should be used for all purposes.
