LIC Policy Status Check: Easy Steps To Check Status Of LIC Policy

The Life Insurance Corporation of India was established in the year 1956 and up until the year 2000 LIC enjoyed a monopoly position in the life insurance segment. Even today, when there are more than 20 life insurance companies in the market LIC continues to have the largest market share. LIC India has a huge customer base which trusts the company and invests in different types of life insurance plans offered by LIC.

When it comes to the range of products offered, LIC India offers the following types of insurance plans:

  1. Term insurance plans
  2. Whole life insurance plans
  3. Endowment plans
  4. Money-back plans
  5. Child plans
  6. Pension plans
  7. Unit linked insurance plans
  8. Health insurance plans

You can buy any plan as per your suitability. To buy the plan, you are required to fill up a proposal form with your relevant information and submit the form with your documents. The first instalment premium would also have to be paid when the proposal form is submitted.

Once the form is submitted, LIC underwrites your risk and then issues you your insurance policy. After your LIC policy is issued, you might want to check your policy details. Even when you are an existing customer, you might want to check the status of your policy to check the term left, the surrender value, the bonus earned so far (if any) and any other relevant details of your policy.

Checking your LIC India policy’s status can be done without visiting LIC’s branch offices. LIC allows its customers with easy ways to check the status of their policy. The status of a LIC policy can be checked in any of the following ways:

Checking your LIC Policy surrender value:

You can also check the surrender value of your traditional LIC policy online. Surrender value is the value that you would get when you surrender your policy before the completion of the plan term. Surrendering the policy can be done during the tenure of the plan by requesting the insurance company. The surrender value is calculated using the following formula –

Surrender value = [{Sum Assured * (number of premiums paid / total number of premiums payable)} + vested bonuses] * Surrender Value Factor

You can calculate your surrender value yourself or you can check your policy’s surrender value online in your policy details.

Why the LIC policy status should be checked timely?

You should do a periodic check of the status of your existing LIC policy. When you do a periodic check you can:

  • Find out the premium due date
  • See the remaining duration of the plan
  • Check the accumulated bonuses
  • Revive a policy which has lapsed
  • Make any type of service requests, etc.

Timely check, therefore, keeps you updated about your existing policy and you can plan your finances accordingly.

You can easily check your LIC policy’s status in different ways. Make the most of the facilities provided by LIC and keep a tab on your LIC policies to know your coverage.
