How you pay it in

PPF pays interest each month on the lowest balance after the 5th and credits it on 31 March (PPF Scheme 2019, para 7). Money paid by 5 April earns all 12 months; a monthly instalment earns only from its own month, so the same yearly amount grows less when paid monthly.

Growth over time

The gap between the two lines is the interest earned — and it widens every year.

PPF formula (monthly instalments)

Standard Formula
Each year: I = r/12 × (12 × B + 78 × m), then B = B + 12 × m + I
Live Calculation (Plugging Your Values)
Monthly instalment (m):₹2,000
Interest rate (r):7.1%
Years (t):15
Substituted Equation:
₹2,000 a month for 15 years at 7.1% = ₹6,31,136
Maturity value:₹6,31,136

B is the balance at the start of the year and m the instalment paid by the 5th of each month. The April instalment earns interest for 12 months, May's for 11, down to March's for 1: 12 + 11 + … + 1 = 78. The year's interest is added on 31 March and earns interest from then on.
