LIC Jeevan Sugam Plan
LIC Jeevan Sugam Plan is a Single Premium non-Participating Endowment Plan. It is a Traditional Plan without Bonus facility. This is a close ended plan available for a short period of time only.
How it works – In this plan, premium needs to be paid upfront as this is a Single Premium Plan. The Death Benefit provided in this plan is 10 times the single premium paid. The Policy Tenure in this plan is also fixed at 10 years. There is Loyalty Additions available in this plan as well.
The Maturity Sum Assured is different in this plan from the Death Sum Assured. The Maturity Sum Assured is the Maturity Benefit opted for in this plan. The Death Sum Assured is fixed at 10 times the Single Premium paid and is paid to the nominee if the Life Insured dies within the Policy Tenure. If the Life Insured dies after the first 5 policy years, even the Loyalty Additions would be paid along with Death Sum Assured.
According to the Maturity Sum Assured chosen, the premium is calculated as per age at entry of the Life Insured. On survival till Policy Maturity, the Maturity Sum Assured + Loyalty Additions would be paid to the policyholder as Maturity Benefit and the policy terminates.
Let us understand the working of this plan diagrammatically with an example of a 30 year old man opting for Maturity Sum Assured of Rs 60,000.
