1.) I already have a PPF account in my name, can I open another PPF account in my child's name? 2.) Can I deposit 1+1 = 2 lacs in a year in both the accounts? 3.) The interest earn by child's PPF will be tax free? 4.) Is there any entry age for minors? My baby is only 2 months old now.

Yes, you can open and deposit in PPF of your children. and 80C maximum cap will be Rs.1 lakh only. interest on PPF account earned by minor will be clubbed with parents income. but interest on PPF is exempted u/s.10(11)
