Hi Chitra

The PPF account is eligible for withdrawal when the account has completed five full financial years barring death of the PPF account-holder.

PPF account can be closed before maturity:

  1. Death of the PPF account-holder
  2. Change of residential address of the PPF account-holder
  3. In case of life threatening disease to the PPF account-holder, life partner of the account-holder or any of the dependents of the account-holder.
  4. For higher studies of PPF account-holder or its children
