Let’s assume:
You invest ₹10,00,000 today.
LIC accumulates this for 10 years (no payout during deferment).
After 10 years, you start receiving a guaranteed annual income for life.
✅ Example (approximate figures):
After deferment, you may get ₹85,000 – ₹95,000 per year for lifetime, depending on LIC’s annuity rate at purchase.
If you live long, the pension continues — you never outlive your income.
