LIC of India charges an extra fee, if you miss the due premium date. This fee is added to the regular premium once you cross the grace period and the policy lapses. You have to pay the delayed LIC premium along with the late fees when you want to revive the policy again. The LIC late fee calculator will help you calculate this extra amount charged for policy revival.

From the first unpaid premium, LIC of India offers 30 days during which you can pay off the delayed amount. This is the grace period. For monthly premium payments, the grace period is limited to 15 days only. If you make the delayed premium payment during this period, you won’t be charged an extra fee. If, however, you cannot pay off the amount within this period, LIC will charge a late fee to revive the lapsed policy.
This tool calculates the late fee based on when the policy is being revived.
If a policy is revived after 30 days to 1 month 14 days, the calculator considers this a delay of 1 month.
If a policy is revived after 1 month 15 days to 2 months 14 days, the calculator considers this a delay of 2 months.
If a policy is revived after 2 months 15 days to 3 months 14 days, the calculator considers this a delay of 3 months.
If a policy is revived after 3 months 15 days to 4 months 14 days, the calculator considers this a delay of 4 months, and so on.
As of now, the late payment charge for LIC premiums is 9.5%.
The LIC Premium Payment Late Fee Calculator considers the following factors to give you an estimate of the total late fee charged -
Date of 1st unpaid premium
Date of revival
Premium amount
Mode of premium payment
Total premium due
Current interest rate
Say that you stopped paying premiums for your LIC policy on 5th July 2021 and want to revive it on 5th July 2022. Take the following example -
Premium payment mode - Monthly
Monthly premium - Rs.10,000
Lapse period - 1 year
Interest rate - 9.5%
Therefore,
Number of installments pending - 13
Total premium due - 13*10000 - Rs.1,30,000
Late premium fee @9.5% - Rs.6,175
Total revival amount - Rs.1,36,175
The LIC policy revival scheme should be studied in detail so your revival is smooth. Further, it is advisable to revive a policy as getting a new one will charge you higher premiums based on your age and health conditions.
