If you want to ensure a pleasant life after retirement, then you should consider LIC’s Pension Plan.  In other words,  now you can retire at the age of 40 with Life Insurance Corporation of India’s pension plan.  LIC’s Jeevan Nidhi (Table No.169) is a with-profits Deferred Annuity (Pension) plan. On survival of the policyholder beyond the term of the policy the accumulated amount (i.e. Sum Assured + Guaranteed Additions + Bonuses) is used to generate a pension (annuity) for the policyholder. The plan also provides a risk cover during the deferment period.

c. Benefit On Vesting:

1. Option to commute up to 1/3rd of the amount available on vesting, which shall include the Sum Assured under the Basic Plan together with accrued Guaranteed Additions, simple Reversionary Bonuses, and Terminal Bonus, if any.

2 . Annuity as per the option selected: Annuity on the balance amount if commutation is exercised, otherwise annuity on the full amount.

d. Annuity Options:
On vesting, the annuity installment, mode of an annuity payment, and type of annuity which shall be made available to the Life Assured (Annuitant) / Nominee will depend upon the then prevailing Immediate Annuity plan of the Life Insurance Corporation of India and its terms and conditions.

  4. I have a money back LIC policy called Jeevan Surabhi for 15 yrs (12+3) My policy will be matured in the next year. I want to bring the notice of LIC of India that survival benefit cheques and maturity cheques should be payable at par at all branches of that bank cheque. But now a days also the at par cheque is not being issued by the LIC of India and hence the cheque are sent to the issuing branch for its clearance, which takes 10 to 15 days for its’ crediting in the account of the policy holder and commission charges are also charged by the bank where the policy holder having the bank account for its credit. This practice should be ceased by the LIC of India with immediate effect to avoid delay in payment as well as to save the postal charges charged by the bank concerned.

    Thanks
