LIC’s New Jeevan Anand Plan is a Participating Life Assurance plan, which offers a combination of protection and savings. It offers the promised fund to the family on the death of the policyholder. If the policyholder lives till the end of the policy term, he/she gets a lump sum benefit. Through its loan facility, this plan also takes care of liquidity needs.
In case of the demise of the insured person, the beneficiary receives the sum assured on death along with bonuses. The death benefit will be equal to 125% of the basic sum assured or 7 times the annual premium, whichever is higher.
In case the life insured survives the entire tenure of the policy, LIC pays him/her the Basic Sum Assured amount along with the Accrued Bonuses.
This LIC policy shall participate in the profits of the Corporation. Based on the profits in a year, LIC declares a bonus rate, which accrues every year and is paid along with the death or maturity benefit.
