Surrendering a Policy After 10 Years and Investing the Premium and Surrender Value Elsewhere ?

POSTED BY akgc2 ON January 30, 2014 3:53 pm ONE COMMENT

This is in continuation of my previous post. Reason to choose new thread I could not post a table in the comment part (Comments are just plain text).

Some Background

  “I had taken LIC Money Back policy (Plan Table 75) back in Dec-2003 for 20 Years term. I am paying Rs 31364/- as annual premium for Sum Assured of Rs. 5 Lakh.

Till Dec-2013 I have paid 10 premiums and 10 are still pending. In my online LIC account it shows the vested bonus as 1,81,500/- I have already received 2 cash back of Rs 1 Lakh each at the end of 5 (Dec-2008) and 10 (Dec-2013) years respectively. “

After calculation as mentioned in below table I have decided to surrender my policy even after 10 years (Half of the Policy term) looking for better returns of my investment.

The assumption here is that if I could generate annual returns of 9.5% or more with the Surrender Value and Pending Yearly Premiums (10) I will get more returns than the total returns including one more Cash Back after 5 years and Maturity Amount after 10 years.

Considering a long term of 10 years it should not be difficult to generate a annualized returns of 9.5% or more.

Policy Start Date 28-Dec-2003
Policy Maturity Date 28-Dec-2023
Total Payment Terms 20 Years
Pending Term (Years) 10 Years
Yearly Premium 31364.00
Current Surrender Value as on 30-Jan 2014 1,10,770
Expected Maturity Value After 10 Years 650000.00
One More Cash Back After 5 Years on 28-Dec-2018 100000.00

    Dear Arun, even here the the table is not visible in full. Can you discuss this issue with me over my personal e-mail ID?

    Thanks
