If you are looking for a reliable savings plan tailored specifically for women, you have come to the right place. Welcome to Ashuram Insurance Expert!
I am Ashuram Modi, your trusted local wealth planner and LIC advisor, proudly serving the families of Bhadra (335501) and surrounding communities since 1990. My mission is to help you make informed and secure financial choices. Today, we are going to explore a highly dependable policy that empowers women to save, accumulate wealth, and protect their families: the LIC Bima Lakshmi Plan No. 881.
Whether you want to start a new policy at our office in Bhadra or need doorstep guidance in nearby areas like Anupshahar (335501) and Ajeetpura (335501), this comprehensive guide will explain everything you need to know about the features, money-back options, and benefits of this exclusive plan.
LIC’s Bima Lakshmi (UIN: 512N389V01) is a Non-Par, Non-Linked, Life, Individual, Savings Plan crafted exclusively for female investors. Let us break down what this means in simple, practical terms:
It is a Limited Premium Payment plan, meaning you do not have to pay premiums for the entire duration of your 25-year policy term. You pay for a shorter, convenient period and continue to enjoy life cover, survival benefits, and guaranteed additions.
When women visit our office to discuss financial planning, we highlight the practical features that make LIC Bima Lakshmi stand out:
Before opening your Bima Lakshmi policy, it is important to know the eligibility criteria. LIC has kept the rules straightforward:
| Target Audience | Exclusively for Females |
|---|---|
| Minimum Age at Entry | 18 years (Last birthday) |
| Maximum Age at Entry | 50 years (Nearer birthday) |
| Policy Term | 25 years (Fixed term) |
| Premium Paying Term (PPT) | Flexible, ranging from 7 years to 15 years |
| Minimum Basic Sum Assured | Rs. 2,00,000/- |
| Maximum Basic Sum Assured | No upper limit (subject to standard underwriting decisions). Must be in multiples of Rs. 10,000. |
Risk commences immediately from the date of acceptance of the risk, ensuring you are protected from day one.
One of the biggest advantages of the LIC Bima Lakshmi plan is that it provides regular liquidity (Money Back) during the policy term. You must choose one of the following three options at the proposal stage. Once chosen, it cannot be altered.
If you choose Option A, you will receive a lump sum payout equal to 50% of your Basic Sum Assured as a Survival Benefit at the exact end of your Premium Paying Term. This is practical if you are planning for a specific milestone, such as a child’s college admission or a business investment, shortly after you stop paying premiums.
If you prefer a regular, steady stream of income, Option B pays you 7.5% of your Basic Sum Assured every 2 years, starting from the end of the 2nd policy year right up to the 24th policy year. You will receive this 7.5% payout at the end of years 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, and 24.
If you want a slightly larger amount spaced further apart, Option C is ideal. It pays you 15% of your Basic Sum Assured every 4 years, starting from the end of the 4th policy year up to the 24th policy year. You will receive this 15% payout at the end of years 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24.
The Survival Benefit Deferment Option:
What if your survival benefit is due, but you do not need the money right now? LIC gives you the
option to defer any Survival Benefit for a period of 5 years. During this 5-year deferment, your
money will accumulate interest as per prevailing LIC rates. You can withdraw the accumulated amount
at the end of the 5th year, or earlier if you surrender or the policy matures.
In the unfortunate event of the policyholder's demise during the 25-year policy term, the nominee receives a highly protective Death Benefit. This ensures the family’s financial dignity is maintained. The Death Benefit is the "Sum Assured on Death" along with all accrued Guaranteed Additions.
The "Sum Assured on Death" is defined as the higher of:
• The Basic Sum Assured, OR
• 10 times the Tabular Annual Premium (multiplied by a modal adjustment factor).
LIC also provides a firm guarantee: The Death Benefit shall never be less than 105% of the total premiums paid up to the date of death.
If the life assured survives the entire 25-year policy term, LIC will pay the "Sum Assured on Maturity" along with all the accrued Guaranteed Additions. Under the Bima Lakshmi plan, the "Sum Assured on Maturity" is exactly equal to your Basic Sum Assured. This is paid in addition to all the Survival Benefits you have already received.
Unlike participating plans where bonuses fluctuate, Bima Lakshmi offers fixed Guaranteed Additions. Provided your policy is active, the rate of Guaranteed Additions is exactly 7% of the Total Tabular Annual Premium in respect of premiums paid. This accrues at the end of each policy year.
Furthermore, LIC rewards you with incentives that boost this rate:
You can pay your premiums in yearly, half-yearly, quarterly, or monthly modes (monthly is only available through NACH auto-debit). Paying yearly provides a favorable premium conversion factor, making it the most cost-effective option. If you need assistance setting up your premium payments securely, you can visit our Premium Payment Services page.
Grace Period: A grace period of 30 days is allowed for yearly, half-yearly, or quarterly premium payments, and 15 days for monthly payments. Your risk cover remains fully active during this period.
Life can be unpredictable. If you face a financial crunch and miss a premium payment, Bima Lakshmi protects you with an Auto Cover feature:
During this Auto Cover period, your full Death Benefit remains active even if you haven't paid the current premium.
As an experienced advisor, I strongly recommend adding riders to your base policy. Riders are powerful enhancements available for a very small additional cost. Bima Lakshmi offers four optional riders:
Instead of receiving your Maturity Benefit or Death Benefit as a single lump sum, you can exercise the Settlement Option. This allows you (or your nominee) to receive the funds in steady instalments spread over 5, 10, or 15 years.
These instalments earn interest based on the annual effective rate linked to G-Sec yields, as per prevailing LIC rates. This is a practical way to secure a guaranteed monthly or yearly income.

No, the LIC Bima Lakshmi Plan 881 is uniquely designed and available exclusively for female policyholders.
The Guaranteed Additions are calculated at a fixed rate of 7% of your Total Tabular Annual Premium in respect of the premiums paid. This amount is added to your policy at the end of every policy year.
You can use the Survival Benefit Deferment Option. This allows you to delay receiving your money-back payout for up to 5 years, during which LIC will add interest to that accumulated amount based on prevailing rates.
You can avail of a policy loan after the completion of just one policy year, provided you have successfully paid one full year's premium. The loan amount can be up to 50% of the surrender value before paying two full years' premiums, and up to 75% after.
If you have paid your premiums regularly for at least 3 full years and miss a subsequent premium, your full life cover will automatically continue for an extended period (6 months to 2 years, depending on how many premiums you paid) without the policy lapsing immediately.
