PNB SCSS Calculator — Frequently Asked Questions

Opening and operating an SCSS account with Punjab National Bank.

Most PNB branches handle SCSS as the bank is an authorised agency bank with wide coverage. It is still worth confirming with your home branch first, as the account is typically opened where your existing savings account and KYC records are held.

Yes, you may hold accounts at more than one institution, but the overall SCSS investment ceiling applies to you as an individual across all accounts combined, not per institution. Exceeding it makes the excess deposit ineligible for scheme interest.

Submit Form 15H at your PNB home branch at the start of each financial year, or through PNB internet banking where the facility is enabled. This prevents TDS being deducted from your quarterly interest when your total income is below the taxable limit.
