Senior Citizen Savings Scheme (SCSS): Know how much return you will get on investment from Rs 1 to Rs 15 lakh in SCSS
Senior Citizen Savings Scheme has emerged as one of the best and safest retirement investment options for senior citizens. The government-run scheme offers attractive returns to investors.
People invest in retirement funds for a secure post-retirement life where they don't have to depend on anyone for their daily expenses of buying essentials and medicines. It comes as great support when one is not in a situation to earn money through doing an office job, running a business, or doing a blue-collar job. For that, it is necessary to invest money in your retirement fund so that you get returns in the face of interest rates and your invested money also keeps growing. Senior Citizen Savings Scheme (SCSS) has been started specially for such people.
One is eligible to get an interest rate of 8.2 per cent in the SCSS. Any person whose age is 60 years or older can invest in the scheme. Apart from this, people in the age group of 55–60 years who have taken VRS and retired defence personnel, whose age is at least 60 years, can also invest in this scheme.
Maximum investment limit
One can start investing in the SCSS for as little as Rs 1,000 and can invest a maximum of Rs 30 lakh. The maximum investment limit had been doubled from its earlier limit of Rs 15 lakh.
The deposited amount matures after 5 years from the date of account opening. Interest is given on the deposited amount on a quarterly basis. Apart from this, the scheme also provides tax benefits to senior citizens.
