Calculating your LIC premium before buying is essential - it helps you plan your budget and compare plans. Here is a step-by-step guide.
What you need to calculate premium:
- ▸Your age at entry (nearer birthday)
- ▸Sum assured (SA) - the coverage amount you want
- ▸Policy term - how many years you want the policy
- ▸Payment mode - yearly, half-yearly, quarterly, or monthly
How LIC calculates premium: Base premium = Tabular rate (₹ per ₹1,000 SA) × SA/1000
Then add:
- ▸GST: 4.5% (year 1), 2.25% (year 2+) for endowment plans
- ▸Mode loading: Monthly adds ~8%, quarterly ~4%, half-yearly ~2%
- ▸Deduct: SA rebate for high SA (above ₹2L), age rebate for younger age
