Good to know
  • Interest is compounded quarterly and paid annually. Interest already due is not re-invested, so it does not earn further interest.
  • Minimum deposit ₹1,000 (in multiples of ₹100); no maximum limit.
  • The annual interest can be credited to your Post Office Savings or bank account via a written standing-instruction / ECS mandate.
  • The 5-Year TD qualifies for deduction under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
