80C Deduction Optimizer

Which 80C slots to fill first – ELSS, PPF, EPF, life insurance, home loan principal – to maximise your ₹1.5L deduction.

How much are you putting into each 80C instrument this year?

₹1,50,000 annual ceiling. Fill the top-ranked slots first.

  • EPF employee share

    Auto

    Your paycheque already deducts this. It counts toward 80C without any extra action.

    Lock-in: Till retirement / job change

  • Home loan principal

    If applicable

    The principal portion of your home-loan EMI qualifies under 80C. Free money – already paying anyway.

    Lock-in: 5-year clawback if property sold

  • ELSS mutual funds

    Equity SIP

    3-year lock-in, 12-14% expected CAGR. The shortest lock among 80C options with real equity returns.

    Lock-in: 3 years

  • PPF

    Guaranteed 7.1%

    15-year lock-in. Tax-free returns at maturity. Great for the risk-averse portion of the allocation.

    Lock-in: 15 years

  • Sukanya Samriddhi

    Girl child

    8.2% tax-free for daughters under 10. Higher than PPF – use if you have an eligible girl child.

    Lock-in: Till age 21 of the child

  • Life insurance premium

    Pure term only

    Premiums paid for self + spouse + kids. Use for a pure-term plan. Traditional LIC endowment is almost never optimal.

    Lock-in: Annual

  • NSC / 5-yr tax-saver FD

    Debt

    Fixed return, 5-year lock. Interest is taxable. Usually the last-resort slot to fill.

    Lock-in: 5 years

80C used this year

₹30,000

/ ₹1,50,000

Fill these next (₹1,20,000 left)

  1. 1

    Home loan principal

    The principal portion of your home-loan EMI qualifies under 80C. Free money – already paying anyway.

  3. 3

    15-year lock-in. Tax-free returns at maturity. Great for the risk-averse portion of the allocation.
