LIC Jeevan Rakshak

LIC Jeevan Rakshak plan has been withdrawn by LIC and is not available for sale and purchase.

LIC Jeevan Rakshak Plan (Table No. 827) is a participating non-linked plan which provides a combination of insurance and savings. As the name suggests, the plan offers life insurance as well as maturity benefit.

This plan is introduced in August 2014 by the Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) of India. If the policyholder dies during the policy term before the maturity date, the plan offers financial assistance to the family of the insured and at the time of maturity, a lump sum amount is payable along with loyalty additions if applicable on the survival of the policyholder.

The policy is an excellent choice for those who belong to a low-income group as it is the only insurance policy which provides less than one lakh rupees as Sum Assured. The plan also provides loan facility in order to fulfill the liquidity requirements of the insured.
