PPF Calculator Formula
The maturity amount for a Public Provident Fund (PPF) is calculated using the compound interest formula with yearly contributions:
A = P × [ ((1 + r)t - 1) / r ] × (1 + r)
- A = Maturity Amount (Expected Corpus)
- P = Yearly Investment Amount
- r = Annual Interest Rate (in decimal, e.g., 7.1% = 0.071)
- t = Time period in years
The estimated returns (interest earned) are calculated as:
Returns = A - (P × t)
Example
Example:
- Yearly Investment (P): ₹1,50,000
- Interest Rate (r): 7.1% per annum
- Time Period (t): 15 years
Maturity Amount = 1,50,000 × [ ((1 + 0.071)15 - 1) / 0.071 ] × (1 + 0.071) ≈ ₹4,068,209
Maturity Amount: ₹4,068,209
Total Invested: ₹1,50,000 × 15 = ₹22,50,000
Estimated Returns (Interest Earned): ₹1,818,209
💡 If you invest ₹1,50,000 every year for 15 years in a PPF account at 7.1% annual interest, your investment will grow to ₹4,068,209, with an estimated interest of ₹1,818,209.
