Let’s assume:
LIC invests your premium (after small deductions) in the chosen index fund.
Your investment value grows as per NIFTY/SENSEX performance.
Your returns depend on market performance — similar to an index mutual fund.
Throughout the policy term, you remain insured.
If the policyholder passes away:
Death Benefit = Higher of (Sum Assured or Fund Value)
(Minimum 105% of total premiums paid)
At the end of 20 years (if policyholder survives):
Maturity Benefit = Fund Value (NAV × Units held)
If the fund grows at an average rate of 8% per year:
If the market performs better (10–12%), the maturity value could exceed ₹30 lakh.
(Note: Returns are market-linked and not guaranteed.)

You invest ₹50,000 per year for 20 years. LIC invests your money in the NIFTY Index.
If the market grows, your fund value grows too — just like mutual funds.
If something happens to you, your family still gets ₹5 lakh or the fund value (whichever is higher).
So, you get insurance + long-term index-based wealth growth — in one plan.
