Hi,
After reading your blog i decided to stop my New Jeevan Anand and went to the agent to convey the same, however , he suggested me some facts which made me think again. Details are as follows
I am 26 year old salaried Employee.I have taken LIC New Jeevan Anand Policy in financial year 2015-16 for a sum assured of Rs. 20,00,000 for a period of 35 years. Yearly premium is Rs.60,000/- paid quarterly(Exact amount 15,193 per quarter).
Comparing Between LIC New Jeevan Anand and PPF.
Now going by the bonus rates declared by LIC in 2016-17.
I have calculated the amount on maturity on the policy.
Simple revisionary Bonus -49
FAB- 2300
Maturity= 20,00,000 + 35*49*20,00,000/1,000 + 2,300* 20,00,000/1000
Maturity=20,00,000 + 34,30,000 + 46,00,000
Maturity=1,00,30,000
Further i will get a sum assured of Rs. 20,00,000 Till age of 100 years.
As far as PPF is concerned: current rate of interest is 8.1 , earlier it was 8.7. Average 8.4
Thus Maturity for Rs. 60,800 at rate of interest of 8.4 for period of 35 years is Approximately Rs. 1,20,00,000/-
Since the maturity amount is almost same in both cases. The Lic poilcy will also cover life insurance plus accidental benefit immediately .Should i still surrender/stop my policy or continue with it.
Thanking you in Advance

Hi,
May I know if you have dependents and/or have financial obligations?
Kindly ask your Agent to calculate the IRR (maturity returns) on Jeevan Anand policy, as you have mentioned the returns on PPF.

I am unmarried Guy, no dependents as such.
Also,Parents are not completely dependent , father have a source of income as well. Monthly Financial obligations is around Rs.20k. Monthly take home salary 50K(Including 20K of financial obligations).
IRR on New Jeevan Anand : 7.4-7.5% .

Hi,
Considering your age and profile, there is no need to have life cover at this stage of your life.
You may discontinue the policy and may consider buying a Personal Accident insurance plan and Health plan, and then buy remaining saved premium in other investment avenues which can beat inflation and provide you positive tax adjusted returns.
These investments can be for your long-term goal like Retirement planning.
