Lic Future Plus Plan Benefits

Maturity Benefits: Benefits on Vesting

On the survival of the policyholder up to the vesting date, the bid value of the units held in the

policyholders account will be utilized to provide a pension based on the then prevailing immediate annuity rates under relevant annuity options. 

Under Future Plus policy, the policyholder have to intimate his/ her choice of annuity option to the Corporation 6 months prior to the vesting date.  An option will also be there to commute up to one-third of the Bid Value of the units held in the Policyholder’s Unit Account which shall be paid as a lump sum.

There will also be an option to purchase pension from any other insurance company. But the policyholder will have to inform LIC 6 months prior to the vesting date. Then the bid value in

policyholders unit account will be transferred directly to the chosen company.

If in case the amount of bid value at the vesting date is insufficient to purchase the minimum amount of pension allowed by LIC, then the balance in the Policyholder’s Unit Account at the vesting date shall be refunded to the Policyholder.

If premiums have been paid for less than 3 years and no further premiums are duly paid, then the policy will become paid up and

Maturity claim = bid value of units held in policyholders’ unit account – surrender charges (if any)

If premiums have been paid for 3 years or more and further premiums are not duly paid, then the policy will become paid up and 

Maturity claim = bid value of units held in policyholders’ unit account + surrender charges (if any)

Death Benefits:

1) Suicide:

If Life insured commits suicide at any time on or after the date on which the risk has commenced but before expiry of 1 year from date of commencement of risk, and the policy is with life cover or without life cover, then

Death claim will be payable to the extent of bid value of units held in the policyholders unit account.

2) Policy with life cover and date of death before or on the due date of policy or within auto

   cover period:

If death of the life assured takes place within policy term and death date is before or on the date of FUP (First Unpaid Premium), then

Death claim = Sum Assured under Basic plan + bid value of units held in policyholders’ unit account as per NAV as on the date of intimation.

If the death takes place as on the due date of premium, then

Death claim = life cover charge + Accident Benefit + Critical illness rider charge of the premium due

If the death is accidental, then

Death claim = life cover charge + Accident Benefit + Critical illness rider charge of the premium due + accident benefit sum assured

If premiums have been paid for less than 3 years and further premiums have not been duly paid, then

auto cover of 6 months from due date of FUP (First Unpaid Premium) is available.

If death occurs during this 6 month period, then

Death claim = sum assured under basic plan + bid value of units held in policyholders

unit account as on the date of intimation.

If premiums have been paid for 3 years or more and further premiums have not been duly paid, then

Auto cover facility will be available throughout remaining policy term, subject to minimum balance condition.

Death claim amount may be paid in lump sum or in the form of pension as per the choice of the nominee.

Policy without life cover:

If policy is taken without life cover, then there will be no auto cover, hence

Death claim = bid value of units held in policyholders’ unit account as on the date of intimation.

If the nominee opts for the pension, then  as per prevailing immediate annuity rates,

he/she has the choice to take one-third of the amount as lump sum and the balance in the form of annuity.
