In today’s modern era, women are progressing alongside men. They are earning good incomes by working in private sectors, businesses, government jobs, and other places.
However, many women in the country lack financial literacy. This means they do not have a good understanding of where, how, and in what way to invest money.
To address this, the government has introduced several beneficial schemes specifically for women.
These schemes offer good returns and discounts on interest rates. Today, we will tell you about these great government schemes designed especially for women.
Mahila Samman Savings Certificate Scheme
The Mahila Samman Savings Certificate Scheme is designed specifically for women. Women can get an interest rate of 7.5% by investing in this scheme.
For example, if you invest Rs 2 lakh in this scheme, at an interest rate of 7.5%, you will receive Rs 2,32,044 at maturity after two years. Women can invest in this scheme for a maximum of two years.
Sukanya Samriddhi Scheme
The Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana aims to secure the future of daughters. By investing in this scheme, you currently receive an interest rate of 8.2%.
If your daughter is less than 10 years old, you can open an account for her in this scheme at the nearest post office.
LIC Aadhar Shila Scheme
The LIC Aadhar Shila Scheme is another excellent scheme for women. It is a non-linked personal life insurance scheme.
Girls from 8 years old to women up to 55 years old can invest in this scheme. After investing, you will receive a fixed amount at the time of maturity.
