SSY Calculator – Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana Maturity Calculator

Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana (SSY) is a flagship sovereign savings scheme launched under the Government of India's 'Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao' initiative.

Designed specifically for the financial security and higher education of the girl child, it offers the highest sovereign interest rate among all small-savings schemes (currently 8.2% p.a.).

What is Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana?

Parents or legal guardians can open an SSY account for a girl child below 10 years of age. Contributions are required for the first 15 years, while the account matures after 21 years from account opening.

Key Benefits of SSY

Highest interest rate among government-backed savings instruments (8.2% p.a. compounded annually).

Guaranteed maturity proceeds transferred directly to the daughter for higher education or marriage.
