National Savings Certificate premature closure allowed only for death, valid pledge, or court order with tiered early redemption amounts. Premature closure is permitted only on death, valid pledge forfeiture by a Gazetted Officer, or court order. Closure within one year yields only principal; closure after one year but before three years yields interest at the Post Office Savings Account rate for complete months held. Closure after three years invokes tiered premature-closure tables that set the amount payable per 1000 rupees for specified sub-periods, with different tables applying according to the account opening period.
