Quick Summary
This discussion addresses how to calculate the interest income from a Kisan Vikas Patra (KVP) purchased in November 2019 for the Financial Year 2021-22, specifically for income tax purposes. While an online calculator was found to be outdated, the consensus is that KVP interest is compounded annually. The thread also touches upon how premature encashment amounts are determined based on the holding period, providing a table for illustration.

This KVP interest calculator is not updated and so cannot be used for KVP purchased in the Financial year 2019-20.

Can you share the sheet with the latest calculation?

On premature encashment of KVP, the amount to be paid depends on the period of holding of the scheme.

For example, the table below indicates the amount required to be paid in case of premature encashment of a Rs.1,000 worth certificate from KVP for the period between 1 July 2019 to 31 March 2020 at interest rate of then 7.6% :

Period of Holding Certificate Amount to be paid (Inclusive of interest)
Less than one year Rs.1,000 (No interest)
Minimum: 2.5 years Maximum: 3 years Rs.1,173
Minimum: 3 years Maximum: 3.5 years Rs.1,211
Minimum: 3.5 years Maximum: 4 years Rs.1,251
Minimum: 4 years Maximum: 4.5 years Rs.1,291
Minimum: 4.5 years Maximum: 5 years Rs.1,333
Minimum: 5 years Maximum: 5.5 years Rs.1,377
Minimum: 5.5 years Maximum: 6 years Rs.1,421
Minimum: 6 years Maximum: 6.5 years Rs.1,467
Minimum: 6.5 years Maximum: 7 years Rs.1,515
Minimum: 7 years Maximum: 7.5 years Rs.1,564
Minimum: 7.5 years Maximum: 8 years Rs.1,615
Minimum: 8 years Maximum: 8.7 years Rs.1,722
Minimum:9 years and above Maximum: Before maturity Rs.1,788
On Maturity Rs.2,000

Sir, as per my understanding, these rates apply for premature encashment of KVPs.

What if we need to calculate the accrued interest for KVP purchased in Nov 2019 for the FY 2021-22? Please share the interest accrued chart for KYV.

Thanks,

Amit

No chart available,  just add interest (compounded) annually.
