When I started analysis of LIC market Plus, I went to the LIC website looking for the policy brochure. Not surprisingly, I couldn’t find it on the website. LIC seems to be one of the very few insurers who don’t provide full policy details on the website. Anyways, there was some information along with benefit illustration provided on the website.
LIC Market Plus I is a ULIP based pension plan. There are three riders available for the customer i.e. Life Cover, Accident Benefit & Critical Illness Benefit. The last two riders are available only if you opt for the life cover rider. It’s good to see that life cover is available as a rider. It’s always better to have the flexibility in insurance products. Since there is not much information available on the website, let’s look at the cost of the ULIP. Here comes the big surprise! For a 20 year policy without life cover, the net return turs out to be 8.6% for 10% return on investment. This makes it the one of the lowest cost pension plan (most probably the lowest cost ULIP) available in the market.
Overall, though not much information is available for this plan, it is an extremely low cost plan. So if you are planning to buy this plan, you will certainly be paying much less than most ULIP investors.
