Assume that a customer invests Rs 100,000 in this scheme @ 8% p.a. in fixed deposit for five years. He will get a benefit of Rs 30,600 at 30.6 % on the eligible investment of INR 100,000 assuming that he is in Rs 2,50000 lac to Rs 10,0000 lac tax bracket, thus his effective investment would be Rs 69,400. He would earn Rs 8000 (08 percent on 1 lac) as interest per annum, which would translate to a return of 11.5 percent on the effective investment of Rs 69,400.
