🔁 Money-Back Benefits Over TimeThis policy acts like a money-back plan, where periodic payouts are made during the term, and the remaining sum is paid on maturity:
-
14-Year Policy: 30% of the sum assured in the 10th & 12th year
-
16-Year Policy: 35% in the 12th & 14th year
-
18-Year Policy: 40% in the 14th & 16th year
-
20-Year Policy: 45% in the 16th & 18th year
-
The balance amount is paid at maturity along with bonuses.
The Jeevan Shiromani policy comes with in-built critical illness coverage. If diagnosed with a listed severe illness, 10% of the sum assured is paid immediately. Additionally, loans can be availed after 1 year, provided premiums are up to date. The loan amount depends on the policy's surrender value, and interest rates are decided by LIC from time to time.
⚰️ Death BenefitIn the unfortunate event of the policyholder's demise during the term, the nominee receives the sum assured along with bonuses, making it a robust protection tool for families.
