How to pay LIC premium online without registration?

Forgetting the password for your LIC log in page to pay LIC premium is common thing. Reason is you regularly not log in to this page as your premium will be either yearly or half yearly. So LIC created one more facility where you no need to register, instead directly you can pay online without any hassle. Let us look how this feature works.

Note-I recently wrote a post “List of LIC’s online and offline premium payment options“. Hope this will give you more insight on the other options available with LIC for premium payment.

1) Visit LIC’s Home Page and click on the tab where I circled.

PREMIUM-1

2) Once you click on above tab you will be directed to one more window which will look like below. Here you need to click on the tab “LIC PayDirect” tab which I circled in below image.

PREMIUM-2

3) You will get the below window where you need to fill your Policy number, Premium you need to pay, date of birth, email id, Phone number and text which appear next to the image. Be careful to provide correct email id. Because you will get digitally signed receipt to your mail. Also no third party payment is allowed, payment should be from policy holders own bank account.

If the premium amount is debited from your account then you will but you got error page, then you will receive digitally signed receipt to your mail id within 3 working days after getting payment confirmation from bank. You need to contact [email protected] if you faced such instances. Also before retrying check whether the amount is debited from your account or not. If debited then you will get receipt within 3 working days.

PREMIUM-3

4) Once you enter the above said data, click submit. Then another window will open where your entered data will appear and you can cross check the details. Also you can add more policies for payment on this screen. Screen looks like below.

PREMIUM-4

5) After clicking on the tab check out from above screen one more window will appear which looks like below. From this window you need to select the policy number for which you want to pay and then click on the tab “Submit”.

PREMIUM-5

6) Now from the below screen you need to select how you want to pay, either through Internet Banking or Credit/Debit Cards (Recently LIC started facility of paying premium from credit cards too). After selecting click on the tab called “Yes”.

PREMIUM-6

To view the receipt you need to have acrobat reader of version 6 and above. After than you need to click on the tab yes by selecting the option of payment.

7) Next it will ask for your bank selection and once you select the bank and click on the tab “Submit”, it will redirect you to the your internet banking login page where you need to login and by mentioning the amount pay it. Once paid you will receive the digitally signed receipt which you can keep it as your proof of payment. Also in below screen you can notice the transaction id was mentioned (I highlighted with black colour), which will be your reference id for future conversation with LIC regarding this payment.

PREMIUM-7

Hope this information will be useful for all.

      1. The dates are not highlighting above my DOB, as I am the registered user. Also it is showing option of only my spouse and child, but no parents or relatives add policy option into my account.

  1. if i can pay my brother’s LIC renewal premium thru my credit card?
    when credit card bill will be due such paid amount will be paid directly by my brother to credit card company.
    please confirm if same is allowed as i have seen below remarks on icici pru site-

    In case, the proposer/policyholder opts for premium payment through Credit/Debit Card**, the payment must be made only through Credit/Debit Card** issued on the name of such proposer/policyholder.

    so please clear my doubts with regards to all types of insurance premiums.
    thanks

      1. thanks a lot for such a prompt response.
        but payment already accepted by icici pru wherein i paid my brother’s premium thru my credit card.
        so please now advise for same and future also.
        with special reference to LIC PLEASE.

          1. i am really impressed with the promptness of your response.
            if i pay suppose 15000/- of renewal premium on behalf of my brother thru my credit card and when credit card bill is due this sum of Rs.15000/- will be paid by brother to card company.
            will it is regularized as needed or any issues?
            please guide me.
            thanks once again for your help.

              1. from income tax perspective my brother can show he actually and finally paid insurance premium from his funds.
                so what is your final advise on this issue?
                thanks again.
                it is just like chat.

                  1. it is just a medium for some time but ultimately my brother will be paying from his sources?

                    thanks.

                    1. it can be proved that ultimately same was borne by my brother and he paid from his bank to card company.

  2. I paid premium of 9493 RS of policy no. XXXXXXX64 to 67 by mistake I paid this premium by my mother’s debit card(third party).so amount is debited but trasaction stutus is still waiting for confirmation .so now what happened??is it confirmed or rejected??can I get money back?how many days status is showing waiting for confirmation??

        1. Ashish-See even if you paid for the different policy (which is not your’s), the premium amount has to match (which in no way match). Hence, definitely, LIC will reverse the payment. It may not be reversed due to holidays or so. Hence, suggesting you to wait for 1-2 WORKING days.

  3. Hi Sir, i am receiving error while payment of my premium from last two quarters…its saying as netwrk error, but there is no issue in the netwrk…i tried from different machines but cudnt pay premium online…please suggest what can be done

  4. after reading all, i have a feeling that I can pay my brother’s premium with my debit card. But, in some of the replies, it is said that the online payment of other’s premium is illegal. I am quite confused. Please clarify

      1. in short, i can pay my brother’s premium online with my debit card or otherwise. LIC will accept his premium, the manner of payment is legal or otherwise.

  5. The main problem is they are very slow in this digital era. From last 10 days I am trying to login but it directs me to old version and it gives me error that User Id or Password is incorrect.

    Also why do they ask to exclude Tax amount from Premium. Do the system calculates it automatically?

      1. Can you answer my another question?

        Also why do they ask to exclude Tax amount from Premium. Do the system calculates it automatically?

  15. Hi,

    I am unable to pay my LIC premium online. Could you please help me in fixing the issue.
    It says please check the policy details always. But I give the correct details.

            1. Hi

              I just encountered the same problem and i have fixed the issue.

              1. We need to key in the premium amount exactly as in the policy document (excluding service tax) (if direct payment option is used in the LIC’s website)

              2. If you are logging in thru your username and password, use the link “enroll policies” and provide your policy number and the exact premium amount as mentioned in the policy document. You should be able to make the payment online now

              3. In either case, if you are making the payment more than 30 days prior to the due date, the system will not allow.

      1. Yes, that money was his money, it is difficult to prove though he can show the money transfer which he has made to my account. Moreover only he will be taking the IT rebate of it.
        Thanks for the reply.
        sunder

          1. Sir, very fair, just that I manage his finances, he send me his savings and I invest it. In fact there is nothing to hide, just that I take that botheration.
            Thanks for that quick reply

  33. I live in Nepal in Pokhara, Nepal and have my policy in LIC India. I have registered for LIC india online portal. I have been paying premium manually either by sending cash to my LIC agent through somebody’s hand or depositing the amount directly in his bank account via Nepal SBI. However, this process is tedious and not reliable. Getting Indian currency in Nepalese market is also difficult these days. I am also feeling doubt that my LIC agent does not pay my premium even after sending money to his bank account on time. I am thus desperately looking for a mechanism by which I can easily pay my premium online right from Nepal itself. I wonder whether such facility exists or not? If it does exist, would you please kind enough to guide me how to do that.

    1. Hemanthkumar-It is impossible. Because some other person may also have access to this and take away your receipt. Hence they not provided such facility. If it is too urgent then visit nearest LIC branch and request them the premium paid history. They issue it and you can submit the same.

    Please tell me alternate method to pay premium online. My due date was 14/11/2014.

  62. I have two daughters who are above 18 yrs age. I have taken LIC policy for them and these have been enrolled in my login with LIC site. Can I pay their premium online using my bank account?

    Please reply

  64. I bought Jeevan Kishore policy for my nephew. So when the policy matures, on whose name does the policy claim check comes. On the name of proposer (me) or Sum Assured (nephew).
    And one more thing, there are two different dates mentioned apart from maturity date:
    1) Vesting date
    2) Deferred date
    What is the difference between these two dates?

    1. Vinav-If your nephew will be still below 18 years of age then you will receive the maturity amount, otherwise he will receive it. Vesting date means maturity date. Usually in some policies there will be two periods, one from policy start period to deferred date and another from deferred date to maturity date. This is basically related to how much risk insurance company will take during these period.

  65. I live in Nepal and I have my policy in LIC India. I have registered for licindia online portal. I have enrolled policy to my online account.

  69. Hi,
    I am littile confused about 12.36% Service tax while paying Premium using Credit Card.
    Could you pls explain what will be Total amount charged to me if I pay Rs 1000 premium,
    Will it be 1000+12 (Conveyance charge )+ 12.36% ( 1012) = 1137
    or 1000+ 12 + 12.36% * 12 = 1114.

        1. Jmoro-Currently service tax on Life Insurance are 12.36% on ULIPs, 3.09% on traditional products and 12.36% on term plans. But you are claiming that you have traditional plans. Hence it must not be 12.36% that too in subsequent years, as service tax for traditional plans in subsequent years is 1.545%.

  70. how can i pay my daughter aged 11 yrs lic premium through online, please explain me moreover i forgotten my user ID and password. How can i recover them

  71. Few of my friends give their LICI premium to be deposited in the branch of my native town as they leave far away from the nearest LICI branch. Now sometimes I find it time consuming factor. Now kindly inform me whether I can pay the premiums of my friends from my own bank account through online without registering their Policy details.

    1. Dhurjati-Yes you can pay by following above steps. But you need to have policy details while paying it.

  72. is there any way to pay LIC premium without 12.36% Service TAx…??? I visited LIC office but there also they dont have machine to swipe card

    1. Ashish-No you can’t pay your premium by avoiding service tax 🙂 You can only pay through online way but not by swiping the card. Let us wait for future initiatives from LIC.

      1. Ajay-Please let me know what help you need. I am not getting what you are saying from above two comments.

    1. Gaurav-You will get immediately or to your mail. If not contact customer care with ID which was generated during the payment of premium.
