Rs. 1 Lac in National Savings Can Earn 200% Profit

The Indian government recently adjusted profit rates for popular National Savings schemes, effective September 2026. Among these, Defence Savings Certificates now offer a staggering 200 percent return on investment after a decade. For every Rs. 100,000 invested, a maturity value of Rs. 300,000 awaits at the 10-year mark.

Under the revised schedule, these certificates maintain a 10-year maturity period. After the first year, the investment grows to Rs. 110,000, and this pattern of doubling continues. By year two, the amount reaches Rs. 121,000; three years see Rs. 133,000, four years result in Rs. 147,000, and five years yield Rs. 163,000.

The growth accelerates further: six years bring Rs. 182,000, followed by Rs. 204,000 at seven years, Rs. 230,000 at eight years, and Rs. 262,000 at nine years. At the end of the 10-year tenure, the initial Rs. 100,000 investment blossoms into Rs. 300,000.

In addition to Defence Savings Certificates, Behod Savings Certificates also see a revised profit rate as part of the updated National Savings returns. These changes come into effect from September 2026, reflecting the government's updated profit schedule for National Savings schemes.
