LIC Premium Calculation Formula
Here we see the detail LIC Premium Calculation Formula with the example .
📘 How the Calculation Works
1. Annual Base Premium
Formula: Base Premium = (Sum Assured × Premium Rate per ₹1000) ÷ 1000
Premium Rate varies by age, term, and plan.
Example:
Sum Assured = ₹5,00,000, Age = 30 years, Term = 20 years, Rate = ₹6.5/1000
Base Premium = (₹5,00,000 × 6.5) ÷ 1000 = ₹3,250
2. GST Calculation
- First Year GST = Base Premium × 4.5% = ₹3,250 × 0.045 = ₹146.25
- Second Year GST = Base Premium × 2.25% = ₹3,250 × 0.0225 = ₹73.13
3. Total Premium (with GST)
- First Year Total = ₹3,250 + ₹146.25 = ₹3,396.25
- Second Year Onwards = ₹3,250 + ₹73.13 = ₹3,323.13
4. Maturity Calculation
Formula: Maturity = Sum Assured + Bonus + Final Addition Bonus
Bonus = 40% of SA, FAB = 10% of SA (assumptions)
Example: ₹5,00,000 + ₹2,00,000 + ₹50,000 = ₹7,50,000
🧾 Real-Life Example
Scenario: Mr. Rajesh, aged 35, chooses the LIC Jeevan Labh (936) plan with:
- Basic Sum Assured: ₹10,00,000
- Policy Term: 20 years
- Premium Payment Term: 15 years
- Premium Rate: ₹7.2 per ₹1000 (as per LIC’s rate chart)
Step 1 — Calculate Base Premium:
Base Premium = (₹10,00,000 × 7.2) ÷ 1000 = ₹7,200/year
Step 2 — Add GST:
- First Year GST = ₹7,200 × 4.5% = ₹324
- Second Year GST = ₹7,200 × 2.25% = ₹162
Step 3 — Total Premium Payable:
- First Year = ₹7,200 + ₹324 = ₹7,524
- From 2nd Year Onwards = ₹7,200 + ₹162 = ₹7,362
Step 4 — Maturity Calculation (Assumptions):
Maturity = ₹10,00,000 (SA) + ₹4,00,000 (Bonus @ 40%) + ₹1,00,000 (FAB @ 10%) = ₹15,00,000
✅ Result: Mr. Rajesh will pay ₹7,524 in the first year and ₹7,362 from the second year onwards, and will receive an estimated ₹15,00,000 at maturity (tax-free under Section 10(10D)*).
