How this is calculated

Deposits run for 15 years from opening; the account matures 21 years from opening. Interest compounds yearly.

years 1–15: (balance + deposit) × (1 + r); years 16–21: balance × (1 + r)

Deposits count toward 80C in the old regime; interest and maturity are tax-free. The rate is set each quarter and assumed constant here.
