The Ministry of Finance India has retained the General Provident Fund (GPF) interest rate at 7.1% for the April–June 2026 quarter. The rate is effective from April 1 to June 30, 2026, with no change from the previous quarter.
The announced rate will apply to GPF as well as similar government-managed funds, including the Contributory Provident Fund (CPF) and All India Services Provident Fund.
The government reviews these rates every quarter, but for the current period, it has opted to maintain stability. The decision ensures consistent returns for government employees relying on these schemes for long-term savings and retirement planning.
