The Jeevan Saral plan from LIC of India, also known as Plan 165, is a unique insurance plan with several key features that set it apart from other endowment plans. These features include:

- Maturity amount: The Maturity Sum Assured, which varies based on the age at entry and term of the plan, plus any Loyalty Additions, will be paid out as the maturity amount.
- Surrender option: Policyholders can choose to surrender the plan completely or partially any time after 3 years, provided premiums have been paid for at least three full years.
- Auto cover: If the policy has been in force for 3 or more full years, auto cover will be available for a period of 12 months. However, this will not be applicable for rider benefits.
- Rider benefits: Term Rider and Accident Benefit Rider are available based on certain conditions and restrictions.
Loyalty Addition Rates of LIC Jeevan Saral
The Loyalty Addition Rates for the Jeevan Saral Plan have been declared by LIC for up to 18 years of term. These rates are used to calculate the maturity and death benefits for policyholders.
However, as the plan is no longer available for purchase, to estimate the loyalty addition rates beyond 18 years, extrapolation was used using the ‘trends’ function. It’s important to note that the calculated rates obtained through extrapolation are not guaranteed and are only used to provide an indicative figure.
Policyholders are advised to consult with LIC or lic agent for more accurate and up-to-date information on Loyalty Addition Rates for the Jeevan Saral Plan.
