For the first time in history, PPF rates will be lower than NSC Rates
They are trying to shift people from tax saving mode to wealth creation. Modified NTR is the first step in that direction.
Isn't PPF @ 8.15% ?
No. 7.1% & changes quarterly.
No government scheme is 8.15%.
Old tax scheme will be scraped so by not increasing ppf rate govt preparing citizens
Have few old Tax Saver FDs at 5.35% interest. Is there a method to break these and make new FDs at 7% ? I can see Partial/Full Closure option for Standard ones but not for Tax Savers 🙁 Anyone who did, please share your experience
TS fd can't be broken before maturity date
Waiting for FD rates to go up.
