Most endowment policies are available for longer terms as they help increase the overall returns that a person will get back at the end of the policy tenure. Additionally, plans such as the LIC single premium endowment policy offer considerable rebates on premium if an investor decides on a higher sum assured. 

Endowment plans are a popular investment tool as they provide assured returns to an investor and an insurance cover at the same time. Endowment policies provide tax benefits under the Indian Income Tax Act. An endowment plan may also have riders that increase the amount of coverage that a policyholder has by protecting him or her from risks that are not covered under the main policy.
