LIC presents ‘Whole Life Policy’ in 3 variants
1.       (Table 02) – Regular Premium Payment
2.       (Table 05) – Limited Premium Payment
3.       (Table 08) – Single Premium Payment
Attractions
§  This plan is mainly devised to create an estate for the heirs of the policyholder as it provides
for payment of sum assured plus bonuses on the death of the policyholder.
§   Considering the increased longevity of people, LIC has amended the above provision, thereby
providing for payment in the form of maturity claim on completion of age 80 years or on expiry
of term of 40 years from date of commencement whichever is later.
§  This policy is suitable for people of all ages who wish to protect their families from financial
crises that may occur owing to the policyholder’s premature death.

payment, bonus continues to accrue even after premium is fully paid.

Illustrations : Disclaimer and Assumptions
§   This illustration is applicable to a non-smoker male/female standard (from medical, life style and occupation point of view) life. 
§   The non-guaranteed benefits (1) and (2) in above illustration are calculated so that they are consistent with the Projected Investment Rate of Return assumption of 6% p.a. (Scenario 1) and 10% p.a. (Scenario 2) respectively.  In other words, in preparing this benefit illustration, it is assumed that the Projected Investment Rate of Return that LICI will be able to earn throughout the term of the policy will be 6% p.a. or 10% p.a., as the case may be.  The Projected Investment Rate of Return is not guaranteed.
§   The main objective of the illustration is that the client is able to appreciate the features of the product and the flow of benefits in different circumstances with some level of quantification.
§   Future bonus will depend on future profits and as such is not guaranteed. However, once bonus is declared in any year and added to the policy, the bonus so added is guaranteed.
§   The Maturity Benefit is the amount shown at the end of 45 years.
