Endowment Life Insurance Plans Offered By LIC

An endowment life insurance policy is a policy that couples the benefits of the concept of life insurance with the concept of savings. These policies, unlike pure term insurance, provide death and maturity benefits.

Many of these LIC policies also come with surrender values, which is a certain percentage of the premiums paid, and paid-up values.

The death benefits with these policies is the sum assured under the policy which can start from Rs. 50,000 and go on to any amount, depending on approval from the insurance underwriters. These policies can be enhanced using various riders that provide additional benefits if the policyholder passes away or is left disabled as a result of an unfortunate incident. Some of the policies that come in the purview of an endowment plan offer the option to pay the premiums in monthly instalments and some even offer discounts on premiums that are paid annually.
