LIC’s Jeevan Shiromani plan offers a combination of protection and savings, catering to High Net-worth Individuals. It provides financial support to the policyholder’s family in the event of the policyholder’s unfortunate demise during the policy term. Periodic payments are made on the policyholder’s survival at specified intervals, and a lump sum is provided to the surviving policyholder at maturity. Additionally, the plan includes a lump sum payout equal to 10% of the chosen Basic Sum Assured upon the diagnosis of specified Critical Illnesses. The plan also offers a loan facility to address liquidity needs.

Exclusion:
Suicide: The policy will be void if the Life Assured, whether sane or insane, commits suicide within 12 months from the date of risk commencement. In such cases, the Corporation will only entertain a claim for 80% of the total premiums paid, provided the policy is in-force. If suicide occurs within 12 months from the date of revival, the payout will be the higher of 80% of the total premiums paid until the date of death or the surrender value available at the time of death. This clause does not apply to policies that have lapsed without acquiring a paid-up value, and no payout is made in such cases. Please note that the premiums mentioned do not include taxes, extra premiums, or any rider premiums, except for the Term Assurance Rider, if applicable.
