Ppf account in name of minor

This query is : Resolved 

27 November 2012 Hi,

I have PPF account for myself and i am depositing 1 Lakh in that account every year.
My question is, can i open another PPF account for my son which is minor and can i deposit amount say 30 thousand yearly in it ?
i understand that tax can be saved up to only 1 Lakh as per 80C but can i open PPF account for minor just for investment purpose ?

Regards
yogi
