## Frequently asked questions

### What if I extend this PPF account by 5 more years, to 25 years?

A 20-year PPF account (15 + one 5-year extension) already demonstrates how powerful tax-free compounding is. Extending a ₹50,000/year PPF from 20 to 25 years takes the maturity value from about ₹22.19 lakh to about ₹34.36 lakh, an increase of about 55% on top of just ₹2.5 lakh more in contributions. Try the PPF calculator with annual investment = ₹50,000 and tenure = 25 years.

### What if I invest ₹1,00,000 a year instead of ₹50,000 for the same 20 years?

Doubling the annual contribution to ₹1,00,000 for the same 20-year, 7.1% inputs doubles the maturity value from about ₹22.19 lakh to about ₹44.39 lakh. Try annual investment = ₹1,00,000 and tenure = 20 years on the PPF calculator to confirm.

### How does a ₹50,000/year PPF for 20 years compare to NPS on tax?

PPF contributions up to ₹1.5 lakh/year qualify under Section 80C and all returns are tax-free. At ₹50,000/year your PPF contribution leaves room in your 80C limit for other instruments like ELSS or term insurance. NPS adds a separate ₹50,000 deduction under 80CCD(1B), but 40% of the NPS corpus at retirement must go into a taxable annuity. PPF gives complete tax-free exit, which NPS cannot.
