Benefits of the New Endowment Plan 714

The New Endowment Plan by Life Insurance Corporation of India offers a combination of financial protection and savings, helping you secure your family’s future while building long-term wealth. Here are the key benefits that make the LIC Plan 714 a smart choice for your financial goals.

• Maturity Benefit:
  If the policyholder survives the entire policy tenure, upon maturity he/she will receive the basic sum assured amount, along with accrued bonuses, as a maturity benefit, and the policy will lapse. The LIC Endowment Plan 714 offers this maturity amount with bonuses.

• Death Benefit:
  If the insured person dies during the policy's tenure, the beneficiary receives the death benefit as the total sum assured on death along with the simple reversionary bonus or accrued bonus, and the policy's tenure lapses.
  Sum Assured on Death is defined as higher of:

  • The basic Sum Assured as chosen at the beginning of the policy

  • 7 times of annualized premium

  This death benefit shall not be less than 105% of the total premiums paid as of the date of death.

• Death benefit in instalment or Settlement option (If Maturity benefit is paid):

  There are options to receive the death benefit in instalment instead of a lump sum. The maturity benefit can also be received in instalments using the Settlement option. For both cases here is the breakdown of the payout:

  Mode of Instalment payment	Minimum Instalment Amount (Rs)
  Monthly	5,000
  Quarterly	15,000
  Half-yearly	25,000
  Yearly	50,000

• Participation in Profit:
  LIC New Endowment Plan participates in the company's profits, and the policy accumulates Simple Reversionary Bonuses and a Final Additional Bonus, which are declared based on the company's experience. A simple reversionary bonus is offered to the insured in case of the death benefit or maturity benefit, provided the policy has completed a certain minimum number of years.

These riders financially protect the policyholder and their family from life’s uncertainties such as death, disability and diseases.
