For Rs.3 lakhs, the total bonus amount will be 35 x (3,00,000/1000) = Rs.10,500. Over 12 years, the bonus will amount to Rs.1,26,000.
How to Calculate the Premium & Maturity Amount of LIC New Endowment Plan 914?
You can use the LIC New Endowment Plan 914 premium calculator to estimate the premiums before buying it. The premium amount has no bearing on the bonus amount. However, if you stop paying the premium at any point or surrender your policy, any applicable bonus shall stop accruing.
To calculate the maturity value, you can use the LIC New Endowment Plan 914 maturity amount calculator. Here is how you can calculate this policy’s maturity amount.
Assuming that you are a 30-year-old male looking to assure a sum of Rs.3 Lakhs for a policy term of 12 years. Using the LIC New Endowment Plan 914 premium calculator, the annual premium comes to be Rs.27,039.
The bonus comes out to be Rs.1,26,000. The final maturity value will be equal to the sum assured on maturity plus bonuses. This brings the total to Rs.(3,00,000 + 1,26,000) = Rs.4,26,000.
In Summary
The LIC New Endowment Plan 914 Bonus Rate for 2020-21 was declared as per the valuation done on 31st March 2021. These rates can be different next year, which is why it is important to remain updated throughout.
