Post Office: It's not about how much you earn, but how much you save that determines your financial growth. There are many ways to invest. One of the best options is the Post Office Recurring Deposit scheme.

Post Office schemes symbolize security and trust. The Recurring Deposit (RD) is a great option for those with regular income who want to save for the future. Let's explore its benefits.

You can start a Post Office RD with just Rs 100/month. There's no max limit. If you deposit Rs 50,000 monthly, your 5-year investment will be Rs 30 lakhs.

The RD currently offers 6.7% interest, compounded quarterly. Over five years, your total will be about Rs 35.68 lakhs, meaning an extra profit of Rs 5.68 lakhs.

Kids over 10 can open an account with parental help. At 18, they can continue it with new KYC. It's a great way to save for their education and marriage.

If opened before the 15th, pay by the 15th monthly. If after, pay by the month's last working day. A small penalty is charged for missed payments.

After one year of regular deposits, you can get a loan of up to 50% of your balance. The loan has a 2% extra charge. Premature closure is possible after 3 years.
