its effective period works out to 16 years i.e., the year of opening the account and adding 15 years to it

Yes,you can withdraw. You can take a loan on the PPF from the third year of opening your account to the sixth year. So, if the account is opened during the financial year 2009-10, the first loan can be taken during financial year 2011-12.

The loan amount will be up to a maximum of 25 per cent of the balance in your account at the end of the first financial year. You can make withdrawals during any one year from the sixth year.

wow...if i said "the duration is 15 years" i think i'd feel foolish if i asked "what is the duration?"

i guess that's just me.
