What Is Big With Sukanya Samriddhi Account aka Selvamagal Semipu With Calculator Chart

The talk of the town and many places are about a new scheme going hot on whatsapp circulation, it is not about “Sukanya Samriddhi Account”, and it is about making money or a kind of investment to the expectations of people who are looking to make easy money. The scheme about parents having a daughter who is below 10 years, they need to open an account in her name by paying Rs. 1000 for the first time and has to pay Rs. 100 every month till she completes the age of 21 will get Rs. 6,50,000 for her marriage. How it is possible? Even one who opens an account for his or her infant baby and pays that monthly Rs. 100 at the age of 21, with interest it will come to Rs. 40,000 or so, but how come the amount jump to Rs. 6,50,000 seems a fake message in the name of “Selva Maghal Thirumana Thittam” (Disclaimer: Please, check for such a scheme).
If you google and do a search for “Selva Maghal Thirumana Thittam”, you will find a lot of marriage halls in Tamil Nadu but not the information about scheme. What I found was “Sukanya Samriddhi Account” or “Selvamagal Semipu”, which is a Girl Child Prosperity Scheme where a parent or guardian needs to open an account in girl’s name in a post office or authorized commercial bank and earn an interest currently 9.1% (FY 2014-15)  to whatever the amount the deposited in that account to a maximum cap of Rs. 1,50,000 per account per year and the amount is exempted under section 80C of income tax, India.
Be sure that one may not get Rs. 6,50,000 on paying Rs. 100 every month till the girl attains the age of 21, it is a Girl Child Prosperity Scheme named “Sukanya Samriddhi Account” launched with effective notification from Ministry of Finance with notification number G.S.R.863(E) Dated 02.12.2014, scheme will be governed by ‘Sukanya Samriddhi Account Rules, 2014’

Partial withdrawal up to 50 per cent of the account balance is allowed to meet education expenses of the girl child till she attains 18 years of age. The account will remain operative for 21 years from the date of opening of the account or till marriage of the girl child.
