Sir, I am having Two kids of age 3 to 8 years. I had opened PPF accounts in their name. Can I deposit 70,000/- to one of my kids account from my HUF account & can take 80CC benefit in my HUF file. Can my father can make gift to another Kids of Rs. 70,000/- & deposit its cheque to his PPF account without taking 80cc benefit. I want to know Weather it can not be truoblesome for me either by PPF law or Incometax law.

Being the guardian of the kids you have opened PPF Accounts in the names of your children.
I am of the opinion that limit Rs.70000/- covers the deposits in the accounts of the children as well as of yours.
From 13.05.2010 ,Govt has banned on new PPF accounts for HUF( hindu undivided family) .
