How it works

A Sukanya Samriddhi account can be opened for a girl below 10 years. You deposit ₹250 to ₹1.5 lakh a year for 15 years; the account matures 21 years after it was opened, earning interest all the while.

The rate is 8.2% for October–December 2026, compounded yearly. Deposits qualify for the 80C deduction in the old regime, and the interest and maturity amount are tax-free.

Questions

When can the money be withdrawn?

Up to half of the balance can be withdrawn for higher education once she turns 18 or passes class 10. The account can also be closed on her marriage after 18.

What is the current SSY rate?

8.2% a year for October–December 2026. The government reviews it every quarter.
