LIC Child Career Plan is no longer sold by LIC. The product was designed to help parents save funds for their children’s higher education. It came with regular payouts in the form of survival benefits that covered key milestones in a child’s life. Bonuses attached to the assured benefit amount enabled parents to not only save but also grow their savings. The final maturity benefit came with the bonus amount accumulated over the years.

Unlike the Simple Reversionary Bonus, this bonus is a one-time addition to the sum assured. It is a reward for the policyholder for continuing with the policy and is, therefore, added to the final maturity benefit amount. Note that the final additional bonus is only added to participating policies such as the LIC Child Career Plan.

The bonus amount will be calculated as Bonus Rate X (Sum Assured / 1000). Assuming that the bonus rate is Rs.30 for a sum assured of Rs.10,00,000, the bonus value will be equal to 30 X (10,00,000 / 1,000) = Rs.30,000.
Based on the formula above, you can calculate each bonus amount as per the bonus rate declared by the company for LIC Child Career Plan and add it to the sum assured.
Here is how your child will benefit from the plan along with information on the bonus applicable.
Five years before the policy matures - 30% of the SA (Sum Assured) plus Simple Reversionary Bonus
Four years before the policy matures – 15percent of the SA
Three years before the policy matures - 15percent of the SA
Two years before the policy matures - 15percent of the SA
One year before the policy matures - 15percent of the SA
When the policy term gets over, 15% of the Sum Assured plus FAB (if any) is paid to your child.
Thus, on the whole, your child gets 105% of the original sum assured plus additional bonuses. All you have to do is figure out the latest bonus rates for LIC Child Career Plan and use them with the formula mentioned above.
