SSY Account: From time to time, many schemes are run by the Central and State Governments for the women and girls of the country. Through these schemes the government tries to make women self-reliant.
Similarly, Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana (SSY) is being run by the Central Government for such daughters. The scheme has been launched by the Modi government at the Center to make special daughters self-reliant. Through this scheme, you can create a big fund by gradually depositing small amounts of money. At present, interest on Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana is 8 percent per annum.
There is no risk in investing in SSY. By investing in this scheme you can improve the future of your daughters. In this, the maturity amount is received when the daughter turns 21 years of age. This is the highest interest paying scheme among small savings schemes. The interest rates of Small Savings Scheme are reviewed every quarter.
How much return will you get on a monthly investment of Rs 5000?
By depositing Rs 5000 every month in Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana, you will have to deposit Rs 60,000 in a year. In this way, you will invest a total of Rs 9,00,000 in 15 years. Do not deposit money between 15 and 21 years. But interest will continue to be added on your amount at the rate of 8 percent.
