Jeevan Suraksha Bandhan

 

It's a time for High Five for every Indian!! After four super successful schemes launched by Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi earlier, another one was launched on August 01, 2015 in the name of Pradhan Mantri Sneha Bandhan Yojana now named as Suraksha Bandhan with an objective to encourage brothers to gift security schemes to their sisters and also enhance financial inclusion. This social security scheme would be driven by various banks and insurance companies which are offering the newly launched cheapest insurance schemes.

Benefits/Features of Suraksha Bandhan

This scheme is especially made for Raksha Bandhan festival in which brother can buy gift cheques with pre-fixed denomination and gift it to his sister. The gift cheques can be purchased any time in a year and gifted for any occasion.

Where to purchase gift card from? You can buy gift cheques from all the banks which are offering PMSBY and PMJJBY.

How will the money get deposited? Receiver of the gift card needs to visit her bank and deposit the card. If there is no bank account then zero balance bank account can be opened. You can also open zero balance account under Jan Dhan Yojana.

Here are the details of three gift cheques:

  1. Jeevan suraksha gift cheque of Rs. 351 will be used to pay one year premium of Suraksha Bima Yojana and Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana. Here's a table showing how this amount will be used and the balance that would be credited to the bank account of the recipient for future premium payment.

  2. Suraksha Bima Yojana: Cheapest insurance scheme for accidental death and disability.
  3. Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana: Cheapest life insurance scheme.

NPS for Tax Saving

The NPS is a great way to save tax if you don't mind locking in your money till you retire. Till last year, the taxability of the NPS was a big issue. But last year's Budget changed the rules and made 40% of the corpus tax free. The PFRDA wants that the balance 60% to be exempt from tax as well. The emphasis is on increasing pension coverage. So, allowing EEE status (to NPS ) is our major demand (in the Budget NPS is especially useful for investors who may have exhausted the `1.5 lakh investment limit under Section 80C but want to save more.   Another way the NPS can cut tax is by rejigging the salary.If a company deposits up to 10% of the basic salary of an employee in the NPS under Section 80CCD(2d), the amount will be tax free. Turn to page 28 to see how much tax this can save. However, the take-home pay of the employee will come down. Invest Rs 1,50,000 and Save Tax upto Rs 46,350 under Section 80C.

Retirement planning from a long-term perspective

Invest In Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Buy Gold Mutual Funds     `HOW green was my valley'. This title comes from a movie I had watched many years ago. A little boy's journey into adulthood and the story of a Welsh valley's turn of-the-century descent from pristine paradise to despoiled coal mining.   I thought of the title because it is comparatively reflective of a person's life ­ the glorious years when he is earning and the sun down years when he is not having his regular job and, hence, his living standards comes down. The reason is a combination of things. Inflation of food items, transport, increase in health related costs in the later years of life and increase in expenses in almost all basic amenities of life. In India, the social security system is almost non-existent. In some states, wherever it is available, the scales of benefits are extremely modest...

BHIM App

BANK FDs for Tax Saving

This is probably the easiest way to save tax if you have a Netbanking account . After the demonetisation and the digital push, almost everyone has one. A few clicks of the mouse and your tax planning is done. However, as mentioned earlier, this convenience comes at a very high cost. Interest rates have come down significantly and are close to 7-7.5% right now. The bigger problem is that the interest is fully taxable. It is added to the income of the investor and taxed at the marginal rate applicable to him. In the highest 30% tax bracket , the post-tax yield is close to 5%. Even so, tax-saving fixed deposits are suitable for risk averse investors, especially senior citizens who might already have hit the ` 15 lakh ceiling in the Senior Citizens' Saving Scheme and don't want to lock in money for the long term in a PPF account . Though NSCs offer higher rates than most banks, many senior citizens prefer to invest in deposits of their own banks, because they get better service ...
