Know what you have to do

You have to do this extension 2 times in a row, which means you have to run this FD for 15 years.

But if you extend this scheme for 5 years, you will get Rs 11,02,349 only as interest and after 10 years your total amount will be Rs 21,02,349. You will have to extend it once more before it matures. In such a situation, on the 15th year, you will get Rs 20,48,297 only as interest on an investment of Rs 10 lakh. On maturity, you will get Rs 30,48,297 on maturity. That is, you will get twice as much interest as your principal and triple your amount.

Understand the rules of extension

Post Office 1 year FD can be extended within 6 months from the date of maturity, 2 year FD within 12 months of maturity period and for extension of 3 and 5 year FD, the post office has to be informed within 18 months of maturity period. Apart from this, you can also request account extension after maturity at the time of opening the account. The interest rate applicable to the respective TD account on the day of maturity will be applicable for the extended period.
