LIC plans andthe  mathematics of investment

Investment in LIC means not just insurance but a way where your hhard-earnedmoney gradually increases. The rate of return is different in different schemes, such as endowment plan, money back policy or ULIP. Suppose you took a policy which returns at the rate of 6% annually. Now there is an easy formula to take it out time to double – 'Rul of 72'. In this, give 72 participants at the rate of return. That means 72 ÷ 6 = 12 years. So if your policy hasa  6% annual return, then your money can be doubled in about 12 years. But this is just an estimat;, the actual time depends on the terms of your policy.

Return rate and time game

Every LIC scheme has its specialty. In some plans, the return is between 5% to 7%, while some keep changing according to bonus and market performance. If the return is 5%, it will take 72 ÷ 5 = 14.4 years, i.e. about 14-15 years. At the same time, if the return is 7%, 72 ÷ 7 = 10.3 years, ie about 10-11 years. Schemes like ULIP,s which are connected to the stock market, may also have more returns, but the risk also comes together. So it is important to understand which policy you have chosen and whaits return isrn. For the correct information, check the document of your policy or talk to the LIC agent.

Understand your investment and plan.

The time for double money in LIC depends not only on return, but also on your premium amount, policy duration and bonus. For example, if you pay a premium of Rs 50,000 every year and get 6% returns, your investment may double in 12 years. But this may also include a bonus on tax benefits and maturity, which further increases your earnings. So, understand your needs beforeinvestingt, consult a financial advisor and choose a scheme that is beneficial for you.
