How LIC Jeevan Umang policy works

Under this plan, the policyholder pays premiums regularly, for the premium paying term of 30 years, and after the end of the premium paying term, they receive 8% of the Basic Sum Assured as the Survival Benefit.

For example, you purchased LIC Jeevan Umang at the age of 26 years for the policy cover of Rs. 4.5 Lacs. If you pay Rs. 42 per day for the first 30 years of the policy term (which will be a total of Rs.. 4,17,420 throughout the premium paying term), you will receive Rs. 36,000 per month, from the 31st year onwards.
