Kisan Vikas Patra Calculator

Find the value of a Kisan Vikas Patra deposit at any point before or at maturity.

How it is calculated

The government publishes KVP's doubling period directly each quarter, rather than a headline interest rate — this calculator works out the value at any number of months held by scaling toward that known doubling point.

Formula

Value at any point: Deposit × 2^(months held ÷ doubling months)

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take KVP to double?

Currently 115 months (9 years 7 months), as published by the government for the Jan-Mar 2026 quarter — check the latest notification, since this period is revised periodically.

Is there a tax benefit on KVP?

No. Unlike PPF, NSC, or a 5-year tax-saving FD, a KVP deposit does not qualify for a Section 80C deduction, and the interest earned is fully taxable.
