Let us understand the LIC Single Premium Endowment Plan better with the help of an example
We have Divyesh Divecha, age 35 who wishes to buy this plan. He goes in for the plan with the following:
Sum Assured - Rs. 2,00,000
Term - 20 years
Based on these parameters, his annual premium is Rs. 1,05,200 + Taxes = Rs. 1,09,934. Here we have assumed the current tax rate of 4.5%.
Death Benefit
Scenario 1 : If Divyesh dies after 3 policy years - The nominee would get the Sum Assured + Simple Reversionary Bonus + Final Addition Bonus.
Total Premiums Paid = Rs. 1,09,934
Sum Assured = Rs. 2,00,000
Simple Reversionary Bonus = Rs. 40 per 1,000 Sum Assured for 3 years i.e. (Rs. 45 x 200 x 3) = Rs. 27,000. Here we have assumed that every year a bonus of Rs. 45 per 1,000 Sum Assured is being declared every year. This is just an assumption and it may be higher or lower than this.
Final Addition Bonus - Nil. Usually Final addition bonus is declared after a much longer premium payment term.
So nominee will get Rs. 2,00,000 + Rs. 27,000 = Rs. 2,27,000
Scenario 2 : If Divyesh dies after 15 policy years - The nominee would get the Sum Assured + Simple Reversionary Bonus + Final Addition Bonus
Total Premiums Paid = Rs 1,09,934
Sum Assured = Rs. 2,00,000
Simple Reversionary Bonus = Rs. 45 per 1,000 Sum Assured for 15 years i.e. (Rs. 45 x 200 x 15) = Rs. 1,35,000. Here we have assumed that every year a bonus of Rs. 45 per 1,000 Sum Assured is being declared every year. This is just an assumption and it may be higher or lower than this.
Final Addition Bonus - Rs. 20 per 1,000 Sum Assured i.e. (Rs. 20 x 200) = Rs. 4,000. Here we have assumed a one time Final Addition Bonus of Rs. 20 per 1,000 Sum Assured. This is just an assumption and it may be higher or lower than this.
So his nominee will get Rs. 2,00,000 + Rs. 1,35,000 + Rs. 4,000 = Rs. 3,39,000
Maturity Benefit
Scenario 3 : If Divyesh survives till the end of the policy term of 25 years - Arvind will get the Sum Assured + Simple Reversionary Bonus + Final Addition Bonus
Total Premiums Paid = Rs. 1,09,934
Sum Assured = Rs. 2,00,000
Simple Reversionary Bonus = Rs. 45 per 1,000 Sum Assured for 20 years i.e. (Rs. 45 x 200 x 20) = Rs. 1,80,000. Here we have assumed that every year a bonus of Rs. 45 per 1,000 Sum Assured is being declared every year. This is just an assumption and it may be higher or lower than this.
Final Addition Bonus - Rs. 20 per 1,000 Sum Assured i.e. (Rs. 20 x 200) = Rs. 4,000. Here we have assumed a one time Final Addition Bonus of Rs. 20 per 1,000 Sum Assured. This is just an assumption and it may be higher or lower than this.
So Sumit will get Rs. 2,00,000 + Rs. 1,80,000 + Rs. 4,000 = Rs. 3,84,000
Sum Assured - Rs. 2,00,000
Term - 20 years
