										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Punjab National Bank ( PNB ) has fixed the investment limit in &#8216;Sugam Fixed Deposit&#8217; scheme. A maximum of Rs 10 lakh can be invested in this scheme.</strong></p>

<p><strong>What was the limit earlier?</strong></p>
<p>The bank has said that more than Rs 10 lakh deposited in FD will be renewed under a separate FD at the time of maturity. PNB&#8217;s easy FD scheme is popular because there is no penalty for premature withdrawal. Earlier, the minimum limit for deposit in this scheme of the bank was Rs 10,000. The maximum deposit limit was Rs 10 crore. After the change in the rules of the scheme, only premature withdrawal up to Rs 10 lakh will be exempted from penalty.</p>

<p>The tenure of the easy FD scheme ranges from 46 days to 120 months. A person can open this account either singly or jointly with another person. This account can also be opened in the name of a child of 10 years and above. Money can be withdrawn from this account before maturity. But, at least 1000 rupees have to be withdrawn in one go.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Union Budget 2023-24: Less than 15 days are left for the presentation of the Union Budget. Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will present the budget for the financial year 2023-24 on 1 February 2023.</strong></p>
<p>Before the budget, the Finance Minister said that the central government will continue to work for the middle class. She said that she herself is from the middle class, so she understands the problems and pressures of this class. He also said that the BJP-led NDA government (NDA Govt.) has not imposed any new tax on the middle class in any budget.</p>
<p>Let us tell you that most of the tax payers are from the middle class only. The Finance Minister said that no new tax has been imposed on the middle class family by the Modi government. He said that those earning up to Rs 5 lakh have been kept out of the purview of income tax by the government.</p>
<p>In the upcoming budget also, the government will continue to work for the middle class. Sitharaman said that middle class families use public transport the most. Keeping this in mind, Metro was brought to more than 27 places. India&#8217;s largest population from the middle class, the Finance Minister said that many middle class people are going towards the cities in search of jobs. We are continuously focusing on Smart City.</p>
<p>The largest section of India&#8217;s population is associated with the middle class. In such a situation, a lot of expectations are being made from the budget on 1st February. This is the last full budget of the current government before the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. In such a situation, it is expected that new announcements can be made by the government regarding income tax, health and jobs.</p>
<p>On behalf of the employed people, there has already been a demand from the Finance Minister to increase the income tax exemption limit and increase the investment limit under section 80C. In this budget, the standard deduction limit can be increased from 50 thousand to 75 thousand by the government.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Public Provident Fund: </strong>Every year the month of January comes with new hopes. During this time, the expectations of the common man also increase a lot from the Union Budget. From businessmen to saldy clauses and finance experts, everyone has their own wish list.</p>
<p>It is also true that our long term goals can be fulfilled only through less income tax and tax savings. Everyone has given their recommendations regarding the budget. The biggest demand from the job profession is to make income up to Rs 5 lakh tax free. Apart from this, there is also a demand to increase the investment limit under Section 80C of Income Tax.</p>
<p>In the recommendation sent by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), it has been recommended to increase the annual deposit limit of PPF from Rs 1.5 lakh to Rs 3 lakh. Along with the employed, this is also a favorite savings scheme for businessmen. If this step is taken by the government, then it will prove to be the most beneficial announcement for non-salaried people, because such people do not even have the option of investing in EPF.</p>
<p><strong>It is necessary to increase the deposit limit of PPF</strong></p>
<p>In the suggestion sent by ICAI, it was said that it is necessary to increase the deposit limit of PPF. Because it is a safe and tax effective savings scheme. ICAI has also been asked to allow separate deductions on premiums for house insurance, travel insurance, personal accident insurance etc. to encourage tax payers to invest.</p>
<p><strong>50% HRA benefit available in other metro cities as well</strong></p>
<p>When it comes to House Rent Allowance (HRA), tax payers get the benefit of income tax deduction. This benefit is also available on the basis of metro and non-metro cities. Now experts have also suggested that apart from Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai, the benefit of dearness allowance of 50 percent of the basic salary should also be available in other metro cities.</p>
<p><strong>What is PPF?</strong></p>
<p>Public Provident Fund (PPF) is one of the most popular, long-term investment options in India. This is a savings scheme for investors to save for a long time after retirement. According to experts, opening a PPF account in the name of one&#8217;s life partner will also double the investor&#8217;s PPF investment limit, although the income tax exemption limit will still be Rs 1.5 lakh.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>There is about a month left for the Union Budget to be presented. On February 1, the budget for the next financial year will be presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman.</strong></p>
<p>But before this, the Finance Minister is being informed about their demands on behalf of different sectors. Along with this, the Union Finance Minister is being demanded to give relief in the upcoming budget.</p>
<p><strong>Modi government&#8217;s last budget</strong></p>
<p>Sources also claim that the government is thinking of giving relief to both farmers and employed people in this budget. Actually, this will be the last budget of the Modi government before the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. In the Union Budget, the limit of savings under section 80C is expected to be increased from Rs 1.5 lakh to Rs 2.5 lakh. In the Pre-Budget Memorandum 2023 from ICAI, the common man has been asked to save more.</p>
<p>Demand for relief for a long time There is a demand from the common man to give relief under 80C for a long time. ICAI has also demanded to increase the investment limit in Public Provident Fund (PPF). At present this limit is 1.5 lakh, which is being demanded to be increased to 3 lakh. ICAI&#8217;s argument behind the demand for increasing the PPF limit is that it is a safe investment option for businessmen and job professionals.</p>
<p>Due to the accumulation of PF of the employed, there is not much scope for investment under it. In such a situation, he has limited options for tax saving. For the last several years, there is a demand to increase the limit of Rs 1.5 lakh under 80C. Apart from this, ICAI has also requested the Finance Ministry to increase the limit of expenditure under 80DDB.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Employees&#8217; Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) may approve a proposal to increase the investment limit in shares and related investment products from the existing 15 per cent to 20 per cent. The proposal is likely to be approved in the meeting of EPFO ​​trustees to be held on July 29 and 30.</p>
<p>The Employees&#8217; Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) may approve a proposal to increase the investment limit in shares and related investment products from the existing 15 per cent to 20 per cent. The proposal is likely to be approved in the meeting of EPFO ​​trustees to be held on July 29 and 30. At present, the EPFO ​​can invest five per cent to 15 per cent of the investment eligible deposits in equity or equity related schemes.</p>
<h3><strong>Investment limit can be made up to 20%</strong></h3>
<p><span>The proposal to increase this limit to 20 per cent has been considered and approved by the Finance Audit and Investment Committee (FAIC) of EPFO. The recommendation of FAIC will be placed before the Central Board of Trustees (CBT), the apex decision making body of EPFO, for consideration and approval. According to a PTI report, the source said that the Central Board of Trustees, headed by the Union Labor Minister, may approve an increase in the investment limit in equity and equity related schemes of FAIC from the existing five to 15 per cent to 20 per cent.</span></p>
<p><span>In a written reply to a question in the Lok Sabha, Minister of State for Labor and Employment, Rameshwar Teli on Monday said that the FIAC, a sub-committee of the CBT, has recommended to consider raising the equity and equity related investment limit from 5-15 per cent to 5-20 per cent. .</span></p>
<h3><strong>Investment in</strong></h3>
<h3><strong>ETF</strong></h3>
<h3><strong>s was approved in August 2015</strong></h3>
<p><span>EPFO had approved investment in Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) in August 2015. At that time, five per cent of investible deposits were invested in equity-linked products. For the current financial year, it has been increased to 15 percent.</span></p>
<p><span>Teli also said that EPFO&#8217;s return on equity related investments has increased to 16.27 per cent in 2021 from 14.67 per cent in 2020-21. However, trade unions have been opposing EPFO&#8217;s investment in the stock market. The reason for this is that there is no government guarantee on this investment.</span></p>
<p><span>Apart from this, let us tell you that in this meeting a decision can be taken regarding the formation of Central Pension Disbursal System. 73 lakh pensioners will get the benefit of this and pension can be transferred to everyone&#8217;s account simultaneously. At present EPFO ​​has 138 regional offices. All these offices give benefit to the beneficiaries in their pension account according to their own. In such a situation, pensioners get pension on different days and at different times.</span></p><p>The post <a href="https://www.rightsofemployees.com/epfo-alert-epfo-%e2%80%8b%e2%80%8bmay-increase-the-limit-of-investment-in-shares-trustees-meeting-expected-to-approve-the-proposal/">EPFO Alert: EPFO ​​may increase the limit of investment in shares, trustees’ meeting expected to approve the proposal</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.rightsofemployees.com">Rightsofemployees.com</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><span>PPF Tax Saving: </span></strong><span> Public Provident Fund ie PPF is such a great way of investment, in which you get good returns, as well as tax exemption. </span></p>
<p><span>This is an investment falling in the EEE category, that is, there is no tax on investment, interest and maturity amount. You get great interest on investment in PPF as well as tax exemption on investments up to Rs 1.5 lakh per annum. This is the reason why people are worried about investing in PPF. But you can also get more profit from this investment. If you keep some important things in mind before investing in PPF, then you will be in profit. </span></p>
<h2><strong><span>Investment limit in PPF will be doubled </span></strong></h2>
<p><span>Investors in PPF not only get assured returns, but also get income tax exemption under Section 80C of Income Tax on investments up to Rs 1.5 lakh. Many times it also happens that even after the limit of PPF investment is over, the investor is left with money and he is looking for investment options. According to tax experts, if the investor is married, then he can open a PPF account in the name of his wife or husband and invest Rs 1.5 lakh separately in it.</span></p>

<h3><strong><span>These benefits are available on investment in PPF </span></strong></h3>
<p>According to experts, if you open a PPF account in the name of your life partner, then the limit of PPF investment will also double, although even then the income tax exemption limit will still be Rs 1.5 lakh. Even if you get 1.5 lakh income tax exemption, but it has many other benefits. PPF investment limit doubles to Rs 3 lakh. Being in the EEE category, the investor gets tax exemption on the interest and maturity amount of PPF.</p>
<h3><strong><span>These provisions have no effect </span></strong></h3>
<p><span>Income from any sum or gift given by you to your wife will be added to your income under section 64 of Income Tax. However, in case of PPF which is completely tax free on account of EEE, the provisions of clubbing have no effect.  </span></p>

<h3><strong><span>Great trick for married people</span></strong></h3>
<p><span>In this, when your partner&#8217;s PPF account matures in future, then the income from your initial investment in your partner&#8217;s PPF account will be added to your income year after year. Therefore, this option also gives married people a chance to double their contribution in the PPF account. This is a better option especially for those people who want to take less risk and do not want to make market linked investments like NPS, Mutual Funds, where the risk appetite is high. Let us tell you that the interest rate of PPF has been fixed at 7.1% for the July-September quarter.</span></p><p>The post <a href="https://www.rightsofemployees.com/investment-limit-in-ppf-will-be-doubled-tax-will-be-saved-and-returns-will-also-be-available-know-the-trick/">Investment limit in PPF will be doubled!
