How to Check PPF Account Maturity date in SBI (There are Multiple Ways to Check).

In this post I will list two ways by which you can check PPF account maturity date in SBI. PPF (Public Provident Fund) is one of the best saving option available to resident Indians. It offers a very attractive rate of interest (interest amount is revised by government once in every three months, Yet PPF rate of interest is usually better than highest Fixed Deposit rate offered by banks). This coupled with fact that returns from PPF account are not taxed makes it a most sought after investment avenue.

PPF account matures 15 years after the end of financial year in which it was opened. As an illustrative example consider a PPF account opened on 15th May 2009. This financial year would end by 31st March 2010. 15 years from this date would be 31st March 2025. The PPF maturiy is 1 day after this date, i.e on 1st April 2025 (one observation you can make here is, all PPF accounts would mature on first day of financial year i.e 1st of April).

Theory and formulas apart, it would be nice to have a simple way how one can confirm the exact date the maturity happens. First method by which you can check this maturity date is by using SBI Netbanking facitliy (www.onlinesbi.com). If for any reason you don’t have login credentials for Netbanking you could use the Second method – check the monthly consolidated account statement sent to your registered email ID. To receive this you should have registered your email id with SBI. You can refer to post How to Check Minimum Balance Required in SBI to know all about the mothly eStatement.

Can I find PPF Account Maturity Date from my PPF Account's Pass Book ?

No. The PPF account’s passbook provided by SBI did not have this information. Looking into this book is not going to provide that info! You PPF pass book will only help track the day when you opened the account (the date of first transaction recorded in your PPF passbook)

  3. This article helped me to check my maturity date of the PPF account.
    Thank you so much.

  4. If i open a PPF account on Aug 3rd 2022, whatr would be my maturity Date? Also say that i opened my account with 1,00,000 on Aug 3rd, what should be the next date to deposit my ppf amount for maximum interest, (if im depositing yearly)?

    • In this case your PPF account would mature on 31st March 2038 (15 years from the end of financial year in which you opened the account. That is 15 years from 1/Apr/2023.
      The maximum amount that you could deposit into your PPF account in 1 Year is Rs 1,50,000 (One Lakh fifty thousand rupees). So you would be able to deposit another Rs 50,000 on the next day itself 🙂
      Assuming you deposited another 50K Rs by 4th August 2022 itself you would have to wait till 1st April 2023 to deposit again. But you were also asking about how to maximize your returns.. for maximizing your returns you need to deposit on the 4th of April (As interest is calculated based on amount available between 5th of a month to last day of month. So depositing on 1st of a month is as good as depositing on 4th of the month. You might as well leave your money in savings account for 3 more days to earn savings account interest)
