Given the average interest of 8.2 percent, which is subject to change, the amount would become approximately Rs 70 lakh on the maturity in 2042.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"22\" class=\"story_para_22\">While Rs 70 lakh may sound like a big amount today, its real value will depend on inflation over the next two decades.
