20-year PPF, pre-filled

This page opens the PPF Calculator with the tenure already set to 20 years — one of the 5-year extension blocks beyond the base 15-year term — at the official 7.1% rate.

The maturity value at the annual limit

Depositing the full ₹1.5 lakh annual limit for 20 years at 7.1%, compounded annually, grows to ₹66.58 L — ₹36.58 L of that is interest, entirely tax-free under both regimes.

Change the yearly deposit

The yearly deposit field stays fully editable up to the ₹1.5 lakh annual limit — lower it to see the maturity value at a smaller contribution.

PPF Calculator Pre-Filled to 20 Years

This is the PPF Calculator with the tenure field already set to 20 years — a 5-year extension block beyond the base 15-year term. At the ₹1.5 lakh annual limit and the official 7.1% rate, it matures to ₹66.58 L.

Why Extensions Compound Dramatically

PPF's real power shows up in extension blocks: because the account keeps compounding at 7.1% annually with fresh ₹1.5 lakh deposits, the gap between a 15-year and a 20-year account is far larger than the extra years alone suggest. This page starts you at 20 years so the extended-horizon numbers are visible immediately.

Editing the Yearly Deposit

The ₹1.5 lakh yearly deposit used for this 20-year projection is the annual limit and the most common real-world pattern — the field stays fully editable down to any smaller amount, with the maturity value recalculating instantly using the same official-rate engine as the main PPF Calculator.
