CHILD CAREER PLAN (TABLE 184) & CHILD FUTURE PLAN (TABLE 185)

When it comes to your child career and future, you don’t want to take risk. Every parent want to give their child finest education and future. If you want to secure your child’s future then this is the best LIC plan for your child. LIC has two best Children’s Plans – LIC’s Child’s Career Plan and Child Future Plan. Both child plans are available for age group of 0 to 12 years.

Features:

The unique features of the twin plans are commencement of risk from the age of 5 years of the child subject to deferment period of 2 years, auto risk cover in case of non-payment of premiums for 2 years and free risk cover equal to the sum assured during extended term of 7 years from the date of maturity.

The features of both the plans remain similar except for Survival Benefit & Death Benefit even though these are two different plans (T-184 & T185). Proposer can choose either plans to suit the needs, such as education / marriage/career/ risk coverage; depending upon male/female child’s Age at entry and Maturity Age.

• These 2 plans are designed to meet educational and other needs of growing child. It provides risk cover on the life of the child not only during the policy term but also during the Extended Term. (Maturity Age - Age at entry = Policy term). For any maturity age between 23 & 27 years this policy can be taken.
• From the date of expiry of Policy Term extended term will be 7 years, i.e. 7 years from Maturity Age.  Till start of Survival benefits premiums are to be paid or for 6 years from DOC. Hence, during extended period, no premiums are payable.
