LIC’s Jeevan Anand Plan is a conventional Savings Plan that does not only cover the insured for the selected policy term, but the life cover is carried forward after the conclusion of the policy term till the entire life of the insured. It also brings in bonuses during the plan term. Consequently, the plan is an Endowment cum Whole Life Insurance Plan.
In the event of death due to an accident before the investor achieves an age of 70 years, the beneficiary will be remunerated with an additional cover amount. This additional accidental death benefit is capped at Rs. 5 lakhs. In case of permanent incapacity due to an accident, this additional cover amount is remunerated in instalments. No extra premium is to be paid in either case. Also, one can avail a Critical Illness rider by paying an additional premium.
Many youngsters settle down in their late 20's or early 30's and thereafter, start thinking over investment options. With increase of numbers of the upper middle class, the investment section received a huge push in the last decade. This early settlement gave extra buffer to cautiously assess diverse available options before investing.
In case of the LIC Jeevan Anand Policy, the policyholder selects the Cover Amount (Sum Assured) and the tenure of the plan when buying the policy. If the insured survives the entire chosen tenure, the chosen Sum Assured and the Accumulated Bonuses are remunerated on maturity. The plan then continues and the policyholder does not have to pay any premium. When the policyholder ultimately dies, the Sum Assured is remunerated once more to the beneficiary.
If the policyholder dies during the tenure of the plan, the Sum Assured and the Accumulated Bonuses would be remunerated to the beneficiary and the plan would expire.
