One of the Post Office savings plans, Kisan Vikas Patra, makes the audacious claim that it will double investors' funds with a guaranteed return. It is one of the small savings programmes backed by the central government. The scheme was initially proposed back in 1988.Although the initial goal of the Kisan Vikas Patra scheme was to double farmers' funds, it is now open to everybody.

The duration of this plan is 124 months, or 10 years and 4 months. Your lumpsum investment, if made between 1 April 2022, and 30 June 2022, will get doubled in worth after the duration of 10 years and 4 months.Beneficial features of Kisan Vikas Patra:
