NSC is often compared with tax-saver FD and PPF. The key distinction is that NSC interest is taxable, but interest for the first four years is commonly treated as reinvested for Section 80C planning, within the overall cap.

NSC suits investors who want a fixed 5-year government-backed product and can handle tax reporting of accrued interest.
