LIC’s new plans 2014-New Endowment Plan (No.814)

January 3, 2014by Basavaraj Tonagatti

Today LIC launched one more new plan which is the new version of the old Endowment Plan (No.14). As this is the new version of existing plan, I am just updating the changes.

LIC's New Endowment Plan

So what is new to customers?

Apart from surrender, death benefit and loan changes, I don’t think any major changes. Premium table is not yet available. So it is premature whether this new plan is cheaper or not. But as it is traditional plan and only revamped to match the new IRDA guidelines, I am maintaining the status quo of recommendation “STAY AWAY”.

    Hi sir,

    Myself Sampath. I am planning to take LIC’s new endowment Policy (No 814) with SA 7,50,000 INR with Yearly premium of 28,500 INR (Approx) with 25 Years Term. I have calculated and getting Returns on the Maturity as 6.12%. Have considered RA Bonus as 48 & Final Add Bonus as 50 (Assumed) – Advise me whether my calculation is correct?

    And I have few concerns and Doubts before taking this Policy. Need your advise.

    Already i have the following Investment options.

    1) HDFC Life Term Insurance for 50 Lakhs
    2) Investing in Mutual Funds (Monthly 6K)
    3) Investing in PPF (Monthly 3K)
    4) Existing LIC money Back Policy (Yearly 6500 INR) – Maturing on 2027
    5) Existing LIC Endowment plan(14) 16 Years Term – (Yearly 10,000 INR) – Maturing on 2027
    6) Completed an Endowment plan in Maxlife – SA 1,50,000 – 6 Years Payable – Maturity after 20 Years – Life gain plus – Maturing on 2033
    7) Some small portion in Direct Equity

    NOW I AM LOOKING FOR SOME INVESTMENT OPTIONS AND FINALLY THINKING TO GO WITH LIC 814. I COULD NOT FIND ANY OTHER OPTIONS.

    Advise me some good option.

    Thanks
    Sampath.

      You no need to follow any special procedure. You just stop paying the premium. The policy will automatically turn to paid up.

    I am in a great dilemma. Wish you could help me here.
    I have purchased New Endowment 814 plan in 2016 with SA 11,00,000 for 21 years and yearly premium of 50352. I have made payment for two premiums and my 3rd premium is due in June’18.
    I am in process of purchasing a 1Cr Aegon iterm Term insurance plan too.
    Questions here is, should I also continue with the LIC plan which I have bought or just forgot about it and start investing the same amount somewhere else like PPF/MF/ELSS.
    I wish,I could come across this article two years earlier. Decision would have been much simpler then. 🙁

    Under Rebate for higher SA:
    there is mention of 3% of BSA for >5L.
    Does this rebate mean for every premium there will be rebate of 3% in the payment of premium?

    Dear sir,

    I am 26 years old and have recently taken up the NEW LIC ENDOWMENT PLAN. My financial advisor says that on investing Rs. 2200 per month, 15 years down the line, I will get a return of Rs. 700000, half of which I will be able to withdraw and half which the company will pay post the age of 40 till the age of 90 or say 100. However, I feel I have taken a hasty decision, since I am unmarried and therefore have no responsibilities on my shoulder. Please advise me as to what I should do, in order to secure my future monetarily?

    Hi
    I am planning that for an investment of 63K/ year for 16 years at the end of 16th year I am told that I would get around 23Lakhs as the maturity amount.
    All the other benefits like death benefits etc all stays the same.

    I am wondering if 23L is the assured sum which is projected can that be true or is there a misguidance ?

    I have planning to go ahead with LIC’s new endowment plan for 16 years. My age is 43 years and my premium should be of 1,50,000 p.a., how much amount should I get by end of 16 years? Also in the event of death, how much will my nominee get? Agent also told me that all causes of deaths are covered (except Suicide), it this correct? He also said that by end of every year, I will get 10% of annual premium back, is it correct? Please guide.

      Rajinder-There is no surrender value if you paid less than 3 years of premium. Simple to stop is to forget this product and no need to pay furutre premiums. Giving or expecting a rebate in insurance industry is exactly like giving or expecting a bribe. So it is legally not correct.

      Abubakkar-Life risk starts on the same day when LIC issues policy. No matter whether a day or two. So it is very much within rule. Your agent suggesting false information, because he don’t want this headache on him. Usually when policy holder dies within 3 years of taking new policy then such policies are called early claims. So LIC do a bit more scrutiny. That is the reason agent suggesting such false information. Contact branch immediately and submit the necessary documents. Orignal LIC Bond, Death Certificate and Claim Form (available with LIC branch). But for lengthy requirement of forms, contact LIC branch immediately.

Can you please tell me some good term insurance plans whose settlement ratio is good enough. Because suppose if I died due to any reason then the cause of taking this insurance should full fill.

        One more thing does these online term insurance plan covers any kind of death(like from diseases, accidental, death by commiting suicides, murderd).

        Please let me know these also.

            I will take a term insurance plan. Do you have any idea about taking insurance policy to “paid-up zone” ? I have read some where that if in my case(Endowment plan), if I don’t want to loose money then I can pay premium for 3 years and then stop paying premium. In this case I will not loose any money and my policy will be taken to paid up zone. where I will get less benefits but at maturity I will get (Total premium paid + Bonus if any). What do you suggest about this ?

    Age : 26 year
    Loan : 50K/year (Only two installment left-2016 and 2017)

    I haven’t invested in any plan yet but seriously looking for 3 things now:

    1. Tax savings (2nd priority)
    2. Personal savings (1st priority)
    3. Life insurance benefits (3rd priority)

    I really don’t have idea on how to invest as very recently I have entered into Software industry.

    It would be very helpful if you advise me how to start investing, where and how much.

    Hi,

    Found your blogs genuine.I appreciate your effort.
    I am Rahul from Odisha .i plan to invest 63000/- per annum in LIC NEW ENDOWMENT PLAN(814) FOR 30 YEARS.
    Sum assured is 20 lacs , and as per agent i would get maturity benefit of around 60 lacs(SA+BONUS+FINAL BONUS).
    ACCIDENTAL DEATH BENEFIT IS 40 LAKS.
    i have taken a housing loan of 30 lacs which makes me take this plan as a insurance against loan .
    Initially i planned for Term Plan .However i found it a plain wastage of the paid premiums.
    What are your views o this .Do i have any other option.
    Kindly suggest.eagerly waiting for your reply .

      Rahul-First point to say is, your agent is claiming wrong maturity amount. He exaggerated the amount to tilt you towards this plan. So stay away from this. Second point is, you are buying insurance means think of what will happen to your dependents in case of your absent. Ideal insurance coverage should be 15-20 times of yearly income+any loan. So will be able to buy this much insurance from this plan by paying hefty premium? Think and decide. You move of saying term insurance premium is waste, is completely wrong concept.

        Sir,
        The agent says an endowment plan is a basic necessity, just like PPF, FDs etc.

        If i think of buying term insurance plan (15 -20 times of my basic salary) at some later stage, say after 5 years,that would not change the premium amount by a huge margin because it is annual premium(monthly increment in insignificant) .However If i delay buying this endowment plan , i may never be able to buy it in future.

        Kindly suggest, or are u saying that i should not go for endowment plan at all???.If not, then what is the alternative ,
        Best regards, Thanks for reply.

          Sir
          1)In the long term , Government will always have a tendency to lower the rate of interest from PPF , FDs , because it is a liability for them plus they may obtain the required money from FDI etc.How advisable is it then to invest money in these instruments.

          2)20 lakhs sum assured
          +
          rupees 50(bonus)*2000(per thousand)*30(term)=30 lakhs
          +
          400(likely future value)*2000=8 lakhs

          =58 lakhs .
          This is how i got the figure(close to 60 lakhs)

          3)Instruments like PPF etc are more liquifiable than insurance savings, so practically it may not be that easy to save rupees 1000/- for RD , or say , not be tempted to withdraw money from PPF,break FDs.

          Kindly suggest Sir, what should I do?

            Rahul-Nothing is constant or GUARANTEED. But based on your goal you need to invest. Do you feel the LIC will provide you the consistent Rs.50 bonus to you? Also have you calculated the return on investment for this Rs.20 lakh sum assured LIC?

          Rahul-Take my example. I am surviving without Endowment and PPF. So do you feel I am in danger zone? In what way agent claiming that it is basic necessity? Strange to hear. For your information if you delay any insurance (whether it is Endowment or Term Insurance) your Insurance cost will raise as you grow older. So first buy term plan. Nothing is universally proven that one must have this product or that product. So understand your requirement then choose a product based on that.

                    Hai basu thanks. Iam not planningnfor any high return with this 4l, for my daughter. I want to invest into something which will give her some big amount at the age of 48. 1. Mutual funds: icannot monitor; 2. I thought giving her atax free amount of 21 lak at her 48 th year will be helpful as she has entered her career only last year (doesnt come under tax bracket as of now) with these points in mind only l opted for this plan when i was suggested this. Am i right in choosing this because of these points?

                      Gita-I understood your concept. But do remember that a simple product called PPF will give you more safe return along with all the tax benefits of what LIC product provide you. If you don’t know about investing in mutual funds or monitoring them then the simple thing is to consider good adviser and invest under him. To be frank select a fund or two mutual funds, invest 80% to these funds and rest into PPF will work out wonders than relying on this product. Rest is left with you.

                  Abhijit-Then my answer is-Term Insurance, PPF (around 30%), Bank FDs (20% as it’s maturity is only 5 years) and rest ELSS (once lock in of 3 years complete, you can continue with the same fund if it is performing well or divert to other funds) and EPF. Hope by these options your tax saving requirement will get fulfilled.

As I’m looking for the long term, tax benefit, and good returns. I’m planning to invest 24,000 thousand per annum. Please suggest if you have some other plans as well.

    Thanks

      Sridhar-In my view it only fulfill your tax benefit and long term requirement. But it fails to give you good return over long period. Why can’t you opt for term plan and invest rest in simple product like PPF, which will give you more return and same tax benefit in long run?

        Thanks Basunivesh! I’m also investing in PPF. But here in this policy I am looking for the returns after the maturity of the plan. Can you please suggest some best plan in this regard? As you suggested one of the best plan LIC’s Jeevan Anand in your blog, can I go for it, does it suit my requirement?

        Once again thanks for your valuable suggestions!

          Sridhar-Whatever plan you consider from traditional category, your return will be around 7%. Hence Jeevan Anand is best only if you restrict your investment to around 15% to 20% of overall investable surplus. Otherwise it will ruin your financial life.

            OK Thanks Basunivesh. Let me tell you the actual thing, I didn’t invest in any of the policies or any other savings plan to save from the Tax deductions from my salary. All these 4 years, I was just paying the tax and didn’t save anything, since I do have some other commitments. Now I realized that I need to do some investment for the purpose of saving at least some amount of tax (not completely) and in return I should get returns after the maturity of the policy. So I request you to suggest me a good plan if any suit my requirement. Thanks for your kind replies.

              Sridhar-There are plenty of other options which are better than this plan. I don’t know what is prompting you to under insurance yourself and satisfying with low returns. Simple things are separate insurance from investment, start investing in PPF (for tax saving) or ELSS (mutual funds but for long term view) will generate better returns.

      Shanthakumar-This plan being typical traditional endowment plan but with only difference of one time payment, you can’t expect more than 7% return.

    You can have a look at premium table here: https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=forums&srcid=MDE2MTUwODIyNjc0MjM4NjM3NzEBMTAyNDA2MTUxOTkyNjA2MTEyNzUBSXgzTk04YU5EYzhKATQBAXYy

    Unless I have really overlooked a major point all LIC agents who were saying LIC policy will be costly were right. Add 3.09% to the amount to get the premium. There are some rebates that you are already aware of but these rebates have been cut down compared to last year.
    I myself had speculated that premium will be cheaper hence stand corrected. I am still confused what happened to the new mortality table. I am waiting for details to trickle down to me on mortality table.

    We had already debated earlier I still maintain diversification is the key and I will not advice to totally “STAY AWAY”

    Last time I did not counter your 5-6% return assumption of LIC, please correct if you see anything wrong here.

    Sample: 30 year old sum assured Rs 500000/- , Term 25 years, Annual premium Rs 18900/-.

    Maturity value at today’s rate = Rs. 1325000/- (Bonus Rs 48/- per thousand and Final Additional Bonus Rs. 450/- per thousand.)

    RATE/IRR: 8%

    Use the Excel Function Rate like this =RATE([@Term],(-1*[@Premium]),0,[@[TOTAL Mat]])
    = RATE(25,-18900,0,1325000)

    Alternatively you can use IRR excel function you will get same result.

      Divya-Let us first come to know the clear picture about the premium table then we can discuss. Also one way or another way LIC is paying the service tax (before it was from LIC now from investor itself). So I don’t think it will impact to that extent and this additional payout from the investor will be reflected when return from LIC will be higher than the current. Coming to return what you calculated, based on your data it provides me 7.7%. Insurance premiums will always be paid in advance. So you start playing today and will end up till 25 years. But return will be in the beginning of 26th year. If done in this way, returns still hover around 7%. Investing for such long term (25 years) and being satisfied with less than 8%, still feel good? As you said earlier, we can treat it as a diversifying tool. But the question is, how many agents have skill to guide client about diversification?

            Hi,
            I am ganesh from chennai. I have planned to take new endowment policy 814 in LIC. I choose the options for yearly i will pay 69971 and agent told as like as after 15 yrs i will get 23,34,812. So I request you to send details and how much amt for maturity and this plan is how to based on calculation for maturity?. That agent said it is not based on share marketing. so this plan is good for future and surely i will get the maturity amount(ie 23.34.812).i am waiting for your favourable reply as soon as possible.

            Thanks,
            Ganesh.

              Ganesh-Without knowing the SA and Term how can I arrive at the maturity value. Also if it is not participating in the market means how you decided that this plan is good? What if after 15 years this plan gives you just around 6% return?
