Exception Allows Opening Three Sukanya Samriddhi Accounts to Build Rs 2 Crore Corpus
The Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana (SSY) typically permits opening accounts for two girl children, but families with twins or triplets born during the first or second childbirth can open a third account. By investing the maximum annual amount of Rs 1.5 lakh in each account at an 8.2% interest rate, the combined maturity value of three accounts could reach approximately Rs 2.15 crore by the time the daughters turn 21. This exception offers a government-backed, tax-free savings opportunity for eligible families.
