What is a PPF Calculator?

A PPF calculator estimates the maturity corpus of a Public Provident Fund account from your yearly contribution and tenure. PPF currently earns a government notified rate of about 7.1% per year, revised quarterly, and the account matures after 15 years with fully tax free interest. Because contributions compound annually over a long period, the maturity figure grows surprisingly large, which the calculator shows instantly.

How Does the Canara Bank PPF Calculator Work?

PPF interest compounds annually on contributions made during the year, so the calculator applies the future value formula for yearly deposits:

M = Y x [(1 + r)^n – 1] / r x (1 + r)

M is the maturity value.
Y is your yearly contribution, capped at Rs. 1.5 lakh.
r is the annual PPF rate.
n is the number of years.

Example

Depositing Rs. 1,00,000 every year for 15 years at the current 7.1% rate builds a maturity corpus of about Rs. 27,12,139, of which Rs. 15,00,000 is your own contribution and the rest is tax free interest. The same account extended in 5 year blocks keeps compounding further.
