LIC (Life Insurance Corporation) is the country’s largest insurance company that offers special schemes for people of all ages, from children to the elderly. Some of the LIC schemes are specially designed for daughters. These schemes will help parents plan efficiently for their daughter’s future.
Most parents start worrying about their daughter's education and wedding expenses as soon as she is born. In such cases, LIC’s Kanyadan Policy can ease these concerns. Let’s learn more about this policy in detail.

The LIC Kanyadan Policy is a special version of the LIC Jeevan Akshay Plan, tailored by LIC agents specifically for daughters. This policy is a type of life insurance that not only provides financial protection but also helps you save money over time. As your daughter grows, the money you save through this policy increases, helping you cover important expenses in her life, like education and marriage.
The premium rate of the LIC Kanyadan Policy is affordable for every individual, from the rural to the urban demographic. The policyholders need to deposit just Rs. 121 per day, which amounts to a total of Rs. 3,630 per month as the premium.
One of the best parts is that even if something happens to you, your daughter will still receive the benefits of this policy. With the LIC Kanyadan Policy, your investment is safe, and you can expect good returns to support your daughter's future.

The parents taking the policy must meet the following eligibility criteria to apply for the Kalyadan Policy.
The policyholders must be between the ages of 18 and 50 years.
The age of the daughter must be a minimum of 1 year.
The basic sum assured must be 1 lakh.
The maximum maturity age should be 65 years.
The policy term must be between 13 to 25 years.
The payment option must be either monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, or yearly.
The Kalyadan Policy offers various benefits to the daughters of the policyholders. Let’s take a look at the different benefits.
If the person insured under the LIC Kanyadan Policy passes away during the policy term, their family will receive a "Death Benefit." This amount is either 7 times the yearly premium paid or 110% of the Basic Sum Assured, whichever is higher.
This Death Benefit can be given to the family either as a lump sum when the policy matures or as an annual payment of 10% of the Basic Sum Assured.
If the person insured under the LIC Kanyadan Policy lives through the entire policy term, they receive a "Maturity Benefit." This amount is equal to the Basic Sum Assured. Along with this, any bonuses added during the policy term, like Simple Reversionary Bonuses and a Final Additional Bonus (if any), are also included in the payout.
If the policyholder of the LIC Kanyadan Policy passes away, all future premium payments are cancelled, meaning the family won't have to pay any more premiums. This helps reduce their financial burden.
Additionally, if the parent dies in an accident, the policy immediately pays Rs. 10 lakh to the family. If the death is due to natural causes, the family will receive Rs. 5 lakh. To support the family even further, the policy provides Rs. 50,000 every year until the policy matures.

Under the LIC Kanyadan Policy, the insured person can choose how they want to receive the death benefit or maturity benefit. They can get it as a lump sum or in smaller instalments over time. These instalments can be paid monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, or yearly, providing a steady income flow based on their preference.
The policyholder can take a loan under this policy, but only if they’ve paid at least two years of premiums in full. The loan amount depends on the policy status, so they can borrow up to 80% of the surrender value if the policy is paid, and up to 90% if the policy is still active.
The LIC Kanyadan Policy falls under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961. This means that the policyholders can claim tax deductions on the amount deposited as the premium. Tax benefits can be claimed on investments up to Rs. 1.5 lakhs under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act.
With the help of the LIC Kanyadan Policy, parents can start preparing for their daughters' future as early as possible. From saving up for their wedding to planning their future education plans, parents can use this money to save up for all major future expenses. This will also ensure that the child does not miss out on anything and gets the best of everything!
