PPF or ICICI Wealth Builder II ? where should I invest

[samkapoor77]

Financial advisor of ICICI suggested me to invest Rs. 50,000 p.a. in ICICI Wealth Builder II which will yield return between 10 and 16%. There will be lock-in period of 5 years and it offers tax benefits under section 80C. Earlier I had plan of investing this amount in PPF. But now I am confused as PPF offers 8% return with 15 years lock-in period. Please help in taking a right decision

Read the offer document carefully or else ask the advisor to put 10-16% returns in writing to you. I am sure he won’t write it. Go for PPF.
