Yes, you can open PPF account in your child's name but it will be managed and operated by the parent/guardian. The interest earned on PPF is tax-free. After the child reaches major, the child will be able to manage the account independently. You may claim deduction u/s 80C for deposits made in the account for the year, which shall not exceed 1 lacs.
