18 March 2010 No the PPF scheme will not withdrawn w. e. f. 01.04.2011. It is that any withdrawal of amount from PPF invested after 01.04.2011 will not be tax free i. e. you will have o pay tax on the same.

However whatever amount you have invested upto 31.03.2011 and withdrawn any time after that will continue to be tax free under the direct tax code also.
