LIC Jeevan Amrit Plan is a limited payment endowment policy with bonus facility. Premium needs to be paid for a maximum of 5 years in this plan but the cover continues till the end of the policy. The first year premium under this plan is noticeably higher than the subsequent years’ premium.
In this plan, the Sum Assured + accrued Bonus would be paid as Death Benefit if the life insured dies within the policy tenure. However, if he lives till the policy maturity, then all the premiums paid till date along with accrued Bonus would be paid as Maturity Benefit.
Death Benefit – In case of death of the Life Insured, the nominee receives Sum Assured + Simple Reversionary Bonus + Final Addition Bonus
Maturity Benefit – At the maturity of the policy, the insured will get total Premiums paid till date + Simple Reversionary Bonus + Final Addition Bonus
Income Tax Benefit – Premiums paid under life insurance policy are exempted from tax under Section 80 C and maturity proceeds are exempted from tax under Section 10 (10D)
