In today’s life, in order to keep pace with our changing lifestyles, our financial needs have increased manifold. In order to achieve our financial goals and fulfill our requirements, we need to plan wisely. Investing in a life insurance plan is an integral part of a successful retirement planning. Hence, having a life insurance plan has become a necessity rather than a choice.
To cope with the growing needs of the insurance seekers, The Life Insurance Corporation of India has come up with Bima Nivesh Insurance policy. LIC Bima Nivesh Insurance policy is a single-premium traditional endowment plan. As it is a non-participating plan, Bima Nivesh does not offer any bonus facilities.
As it is a single premium endowment plan , the one-time premium is needed to be paid up front. In case of premature demise of the insured within the tenure of the policy, the beneficiary would receive the sum assured amount plus guaranteed additions. Moreover, if the insured survives during the entire tenure of the policy, then he/she would receive the basic sum assured along with the guaranteed loyalty additions.
If you want a good return on investment and a substantial life cover, without getting into the hassles of paying premiums at regular intervals, then an endowment plan will be your best bet. LIC Bima Nivesh, hence, is a great option for you as it offers guaranteed returns along with life coverage.
Death Benefit
In case the policyholder dies during the tenure of the policy, then the nominee of the policy receives the basic sum assured + accrued guaranteed additions.
Maturity Benefit
If the policyholder survives during the entire tenure of the policy till the date of policy maturity, then maturity benefits are paid to the life insured as the basic sum assured + compounded guaranteed addition+ loyalty addition.
Income Tax Benefit
The plan also provides income tax benefits to the insured. The life insured can save bundles on their tax under section 80C and 10(10D) of Income Tax Act on the premium paid and maturity proceeds.

Along with the basic life cover, the plan can also provide add-on benefit as term benefit rider. The plan also offers guaranteed surrender value after 1 policy year. According to your choice and suitability, the insured can also avail loan facility under the plan.
Apart from all these, the policyholder has an option of the free-look period under which he/she can cancel the policy within 15 days of buying the policy if they are not pleased with the terms and conditions of the policy.
