Your website says that revision of interest rate for next two FY 2021-23 and FY 2022-23 will be revised at the beginning of each year in line with Senior Citizen Saving scheme (SCSS) with ceiling of 7.75%. And then you also say that once policy is purchased interest rate will remain same for the next 10 years. Bit confused. Please explain.

Wrote :

The current rate is for the period up to 31-03-2021, which means policies that are purchased before 31-03-2021 will receive this rate for the next 10 years. Revision of rate for 2021-22 and 2022-23 means, revision of rates for new policies which would be purchased in these financial years. Please note this policy is available up to 2022-23.

Yes, it will be included for tax calculation for a particular financial year. Means, for example, if your income from pension is 4,00,000 and yearly pension from this plan is 1,00,000, then total income for tax calculation will be 5,00,000.

Sir, there is no such option of not availing pension. However, you may choose yearly option and let the interest amounts credit in to your account for entire period of 10 years. For 15 Lakh, you will get yearly 1,11,000, so total amount after 10 year will be 15,00,000 + 11,10,000=26,10,000.

Half yearly pension calculation showing Rs. 55000 against rs 15 Lakh, why less? yearly pension should more than monthly as monthly pension accumulation. what & how is 7.66%interest in pmvvy.

Wrote :

27-05-2020 18:34:43

It can be understood as following.
1. For Rs. 55,500 half yearly pension, the purchase price, is Rs. 14,76,064 (not 15 Lakh), while for Rs. 1,11,000 (twice of 55,550) yearly pension, the purchase price is Rs. 14,49,086 (less than 14,76,064).

2. For Rs. 10,00,000 purchase price, the half yearly pension is Rs. 37,600, while for same Rs. 10,00,000 purchase price, the yearly pension is Rs. 76,600 (greater than twice of 37,600).
In case of any further query, please do write.
