After the education of the children, the parents get worried about their marriage. Especially the worry about the daughter’s marriage bothers the parents the most. For this, they start saving money from childhood. However, to remove this concern of the common man, the government is running Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana.
Under this scheme, you can open your daughter’s account with only 250 rupees. After opening the account of the daughter, a minimum amount of Rs 250 and a maximum of Rs 1.5 lakh can be deposited every month. The best thing about this scheme is that the interest rate has been kept at 7.6%.
In this scheme, only daughters below the age of 10 years can open accounts and it is mandatory to deposit money in the account for 15 years. On depositing Rs 1000 every month in this scheme, after 15 years the interest rate of 7.6% will be Rs 510371. In this amount, you will deposit only Rs 1 lakh 80 thousand and you will get the remaining Rs 330371 as interest. On the other hand, if you deposit 12 thousand 500 rupees every month, then you will get 74 lakh rupees on maturity.
