## Frequently asked questions

### Why invest ₹1,25,000 instead of the maximum ₹1,50,000?

Some investors keep ₹25,000 of their 80C budget for EPF top-ups or term insurance premiums. ₹1,25,000/year in SSY still gives a very large 21-year corpus while leaving a small slice of the 80C limit for other uses. See the ₹1,50,000/year SSY page to see what the extra ₹25,000/year adds.

### What is the Section 80C benefit on a ₹1,25,000/year SSY contribution?

The full ₹1,25,000 qualifies for Section 80C deduction. At the 30% tax slab, this gives a tax saving of roughly ₹37,500/year (plus 4% cess = about ₹39,000). Over 15 deposit years, the cumulative tax saving on contributions alone is approximately ₹5.85 lakh, on top of the tax-free interest and maturity.

### When should I open an SSY account for maximum benefit?

The SSY account can be opened at any time from the girl's birth until she turns 10. Opening it at birth gives a full 21-year compounding window; opening at age 9 gives only 12 years before the account matures (21 years from opening). The earlier you open, the larger the corpus at maturity.
