SCSS is a government savings scheme for senior citizens (age 60+). Interest is payable quarterly. Maximum deposit: ₹30 lakh. Maturity: 5 years, extendable by 3 years. TDS applies if interest exceeds ₹50,000/year (₹1L for seniors).
How is this calculated?
Quarterly Interest = (Principal × Rate × 3) / (12 × 100). The principal is returned at maturity. Interest rates are set by the government quarterly. Premature closure: 1% penalty if closed within 1 year, 0.5% after 1 year.
