Income Tax benefit - On my children's PPF accounts

[alok07]

I have opened two ppf accounts on my children individually, when they were minor. They have become major now. There are still a couple of years before the ppf matures i.e. completion of 15 years. Pls advice, if I can still claim income tax benefit, when I contribute to my children's PPF accounts.

You can claim tax benefit for your children's PPF account, till your children are minor.

Confused is right. So deposit Rs. 70000/- in your PPF account and take IT claim.
