Sukanya Samriddhi is 8.2% for October to December 2026

The Sukanya Samriddhi calculator uses 8.2% for October to December 2026. The government reviews small-savings rates every quarter, so the page does not treat 8.2% as the rate for later quarters. A deposit is ₹250 to ₹1.5 lakh in a financial year.

Quarter this rate is for 1 October 2026 to 31 December 2026
