Sample illustration of premium of LIC New Endowment Plan:

The below illustration is for a healthy male (non-tobacco user) opting for a sum assured = Rs.1,00,000 and policy term = 25 years respectively.

LIC New Endowment Plan

Let us understand with an example:

Ramesh has purchased a LIC New Endowment Plan for 25 years and for Sum Assured of Rs 10 lacs. Now, if the Simple Reversionary Bonus for a particular year is Rs 30, then the Bonus that accrues for Ramesh is:

Bonus= 30/1,000 X Sum Assured = 30/1,000 X 10,00,000= 30,000 for that year.

If the Bonus is assumed to be the same every year for the entire policy tenure of 25 years, then his Simple Reversionary Bonus = 30,000 X 25 = 7,50,000

The Final Addition Bonus does not get multiplied by the number of years. Thus, if Final Addition Bonus is Rs.200 per thousand Sum Assured, then Final Additional Bonus would be calculated as Rs 200/1,000 * Rs.10,00,000 = Rs.2,00,000

Total Bonus = Simple Reversionary Bonus + Final Addition Bonus
Total Bonus = Rs.7,50,000 + Rs.2,00,000 = Rs 9,50,000

FAQs

tab-faqs-header-icon
angle down iconWhat happens if you stop paying the premium?

If the premiums are not paid within Grace Period, the policy lapses and all benefits cease. However, if at least 3 years’ premiums have been paid, the policy acquires a Paid up Value for a Reduced Sum Assured but the policy would be eligible for any future regular additions.

Reduced Sum Assured = Basic Sum Assured *(Number of Premiums Paid / Total Number of Premiums Payable)

The policy can however be revived within 2 consecutive years from the date of first unpaid premium.

angle down iconWhat happens if you want to surrender the policy?

The policy can be surrendered only after it accrues Cash Value after at least 3 years’ premiums have been paid.This percentage will depend on the policy term and policy year in which the policy is surrendered and specified as per the table mentioned.

angle down iconWhat happens if you want a loan against your policy?

Loan can be availed under the policy provided the policy has acquired a surrender value and subject to the terms and conditions.
