Dear Visitors I need an advice regarding investment in property. I want to construct my house in 2 years. I have 6 lacs now so where should I invest them. I have two options in my mind.

1. Defense saving certificates
2. NFC 2 file

Please suggest any better option with details. Your help in this regard will be extremely appreciated.

Regards

Good luck

DR. USMAN

Defence saving certificates are for 10 years durantion and have a lower interest rate than special saving certificates. I would suggest you to buy a plot in NFC and the balance to invest in 3 year tenor special saving certificates.

Thanks a lot Farid-UAE and Pk.
Is there any better option than NFC 2 in this budget?

Hi Dr. Usman

I would not recommend investing in saving certificates for the simple reason of interest....if u avoid this option due to 'interest' then whatever investment you make in any property, it will give a high return insha-ALLAH. This is atleast my own belief and personal experience too...the moment I decided not to be involved in any interest-based activity, ALLAH started adding 'barkat' in my income...May ALLAH help all of us following the right path. Best Regards.

better option than double shah is to buy Dollars and after 3 years convert them back to rupee.
A safer and a sure method. If not double you will easily end up with 9 to 10 lacs.

Dr. Usman,

please dont buy saving certificates because its haram..u should know that interest is 100 percent HARAAM, its war against ALLAH SUBHAN O TAALAH. so just invest it in any NFC-2 or in any other good scheme.I would like to inform all my PAKISTANI BROTHERS that INTEREST (SOOD) its HARAAM ( === Eidted by Moderator - HK ===) so please please please stop eating SOOD.
