PPF and EPF
Log PPF as a long-term debt instrument (government-backed) with the current passbook balance. Update after each financial-year contribution and interest credit.
EPF belongs as a retirement asset. Use the EPFO passbook or your employer portal. Include employee + employer corpus; that is the amount that would transfer if you changed jobs.
NPS
NPS has a market-linked value. Record the current corpus from the CRA login, not the amount you contributed. Treat it as locked until the rules allow partial withdrawal.
Gold and SGB
Physical gold, digital gold, and sovereign gold bonds should be separate line items. SGB has a tenure and interest; still count current value as an asset.
Revalue gold monthly or quarterly. A stale gram price quietly drifts your net worth.
Keep it in a sheet you own
CapitalMap lets you record these categories as assets, then syncs them to a Google Sheet in your Drive. You can open the Vault anytime — including after you stop using the app.
