Jeevan Anand LIC Policy Details with Example
Let me explain everything that i told above with an example to understand even better.
Example – Mr. Kiran wants buy a policy new jeevan anand policy. His profile is as follows.
Age: 30 Years | Term: 20 Years | Sum Assured: Rs.10 Lakhs
The 1st year premium chart will be as follows.
| Basic Premium | GST (4.5%) | Total Premium | |
| Yearly | 56849 | 2558 | 59407 |
| Half-Yearly | 28725 | 1293 | 30018 |
| Quarterly | 14513 | 653 | 15166 |
| Monthly | 4838 | 218 | 5056 |
After 1st year, GST on basic premium will be 2.25%. Correspondingly the premium that you pay from 2nd on wards will be as follows
| Basic Premium | GST (4.5%) | Total Premium | |
| Yearly | 56849 | 1279 | 58128 |
| Half-Yearly | 28725 | 646 | 29371 |
| Quarterly | 14513 | 327 | 14840 |
| Monthly | 4838 | 109 | 4947 |
Also let us assume that the Simple Reversionary Bonus declared every year average as Rs.45 per Rs.1000 sum assured. As i already told you, this is not fixed, it is different every year declared by LIC based on its performance during the financial year. It also different based upon the term that you choose. We are assuming average bonus to make it simple.
The following table shows the Actual Bonus Declared by LIC from 2014 to 2018. You can als0 view future bonus declared by lic on this page.
| Year | 15 Year Term | 16 to 20 Year Term | 21 to 35 Year Term |
| 2014 | 40 | 44 | 48 |
| 2015 | 41 | 45 | 49 |
| 2016 | 41 | 45 | 49 |
| 2017 | 41 | 45 | 49 |
| 2018 | 41 | 45 | 49 |
Now, Rs.45 per Rs.1000 will become Rs.45000 for Rs.10 Lakh sum assured {45 x (10,00,000/1000) = Rs.45000}.
Now, let me explain how much benefit the policy holder or the nominee will receive in different cases.
Case 1:Kiran Dies after 15 years of paying premium:
In this case, policy term is still 5 years more. Kiran paid policy premium for 15 years and died before maturity of the policy. His nominee will receive the following benefits as per the policy terms.
As i explained above, his nominee will receive the highest of the 3 components, i.e.,
- 125% of basic sum assured = 125% of Rs.10 Lakhs = Rs.12,50,000
- 10 times the annual premium = Rs.56849 * 10 = Rs.5,68,490 (Here we have to consider basic premium amount only. We have to exclude GST from total premium that he paid)
- 105% of all premiums paid = (105% of (56849 * 15)) = (105% of (8,52,735)) = Rs.895371.75
His nominee will receive Rs.12,50,000 (Plus)
Simple Reversionary Bonus = 15 x 45000 = Rs.6,75,000 (Plus)
Final additional Bonus = Rs. 20 per 1000 Sum Assured. That means a Final Addition Bonus of 20 x (10,00,000/1,000) = Rs. 20,000.
So, His nominee will receive a total amount of Rs.19,45,000 (Rs.1250000 + Rs.675000 + Rs.20000).
| Total Premium Paid | Rs.891105 |
| Basic Sum Assured | Rs.1250000 |
| Simple Reversionary Bonus | Rs.675000 |
| Additional Bonus | Rs.20000 |
| Total Death Benefit | Rs.1945000 |
Case 2:Kiran Survives till the end of Policy Term
In this case, kiran survived till the end of policy term, hence he is entitled receive maturity benefit of ‘Basic Sum Assured + Simple Reversionary Bonus + Final Additional Bonus’.
Basic Sum Assured = Rs.10,00,000
Simple Reversionary Bonus = 20 x 45000 = Rs.9,00,000 (Plus)
Final additional Bonus = Rs. 20 per 1000 Sum Assured. That means a Final Addition Bonus of 20 x (10,00,000/1,000) = Rs. 20,000.
Hence, Kiran receives the maturity benefit = Rs.1000000 + Rs.900000 + Rs.20000 = Rs.19,20,000
Case 3:Kiran Died at any time after Policy Term
In this case, Kiran already received maturity benefit. Now, he died after completion of policy term. His nominee is entitled to receive basic sum assured.
Hence, his nominee will receive Rs.10 Lakhs.
