How LIC New Jeevan Anand Plan 915 Works with Example

This plan works the same way as any other endowment plan. with some added benefits. Let’s understand this.

Suppose Ram takes this plan with following details:
Age – 30
Sum Assured – 1 Lakh
Policy Term – 25

Based on age, policy term and sum assured selected, Ram’s premium is calculated. Annual premium will be Rs. 4,581. Ram has to pay this premium for the entire duration of the policy term i.e. 20 years as selected by him.

Let’s suppose Ram will get a Simple Reversionary Bonus = Rs. 45 per 1000 sum assured = 45 x (1,00,000 / 1000) = Rs. 4,500 every year. Please note that this bonus rate can vary. We have taken it here for calculation purposes only.

Final Addition Bonus = Rs. 15 per 1000 sum assured = 15 x (1,00,000 / 1000) = Rs. 1500 will be paid at the end of the policy.

• Scenario 1 – If Ram survives the entire policy term and he has paid all the due premiums till date then he will get the Maturity Benefit.
  • Maturity Benefit will be sum assured + Accrued Bonus (Simple Reversionary Bonus declared for 25 years) + Final Addition Bonus (if any). = 1,00,000 + (Rs. 4,500 x 25) + Rs. 1500 = Rs. 2,14,000

Now the policy continues and after the death of the policyholder (Ram) his nominee will get an additional sum assured amount as death benefit.

• Scenario 2 – Now Suppose policyholder dies in the 15th year of the plan.
  • In this case death benefit would be paid to the nominee which will be Sum Assured on death + Accrued Bonus (SAB paid for 15 years) + Final Addition Bonus (if any).

Here the Sum Assured on death is defined as,

• 125% of basic sum assured or
• 10 times the annualised premium

This death benefit should not be less than 105% of total premiums paid till death.

125% of the basic sum assured = 125% of Rs. 1,00,000 = Rs. 1,25,000
10 times the annual premium = 10 x Rs. 4,581 = 45,810
105 % of all premiums paid = 105% x (4,581 x 15) = Rs. 72,150

So it’s clearly visible that from above three options the highest would be Rs. 1,25,000
And therefore Sum Assured on Death will be Rs. 1,25,000
Ram’s nominee will get = Rs. 1,25,000 + (Rs. 4,500 x 15) + Rs. 1500 = Rs. 1,94,000 would be paid to Ram’s nominee and policy will close.
