New LIC Tech Term - Features & Benefits

LIC's New tech term plan offers an "Online Term Assurance Plan" – a straightforward protection plan without any linked benefits or profits. It ensures financial security for your family in case of your unfortunate passing. You can apply for this plan online without involving any intermediaries. Check the main advantages of the LIC Tech term policy here:

• High Coverage At A Low Premium

With the hazards that come with life, it's critical to choose a sum assured that not only protects your family while you're gone but also helps them keep up with the rising cost of living. Broker commissions are avoided when you buy LIC tech terms online, which lowers the insurance price significantly. For example, a 30-year-old non-smoking man who purchases this policy with a total assured of Rs 1 crore and a policy period of 30 years will only have to pay Rs 9,000 per year in premiums.

• Payout Benefit Options

 This plan's death benefit is available in two forms: level sum assured and augmented amount assured.

Level sum assured: Throughout the insurance period, the sum promised remains constant.

Increasing the level is certain: The amount of the sum assured to be paid on the policyholder's death remains the same in this choice until the conclusion of the fifth policy year. The basic sum assured increases by 10% per year from the sixth to the fifteenth policy year, until it reaches double the basic sum assured. This new sum promised remains constant after the 16th policy year.

LIC now offers the option of receiving death benefits in five, ten, or fifteen-year instalments rather than a flat sum. This is an option that the policyholder must select when purchasing the policy.

• Accidental Benefit Rider

The possibility of increasing your coverage by paying an additional premium for an Accidental benefit rider is the most crucial of all the LIC tech term plan perks. As a result, if the policyholder dies in an accident, the rider sum assured will be paid as a lump sum in addition to the death benefit.

• Rider 

The Accidental Death Benefit Rider can be added to your policy for a cost. If you die in an accident, you will receive the Rider benefit in addition to the Sum Assured under the plan.

• Tax Benefits

The LIC tech term plan provides tax advantages on premiums and payouts. While you can deduct premiums paid under Section 80C of the Internal Revenue Code, the payout of the sum promised is likewise tax-free under Section 10(10D) of the tax code.

Conclusion

The benefits and features of a Tech term plan are numerous, making it an excellent solution for you to ensure the financial obligations of your family and dependents while you are away.
