Introduction
Insurance Regulatory & Development Authority (IRDA) requires all life insurance companies
operating in India to provide official illustrations to their customers. The illustrations are based
on the investment rates of return set by the Life Insurance Council (constituted under Section
64C(a) of the Insurance Act 1938) and is not intended to reflect the actual investment returns
achieved or may be achieved in future by Life Insurance Corporation of India (LICI).
For the year 2004-05 the two rates of investment return declared by the Life Insurance
Council are 6% and 10% per annum.

Benefit Illustration:
Statutory warning:
“Some benefits are guaranteed and some benefits are variable with returns based on the
future performance of your insurer carrying on life insurance business. If your policy offers
guaranteed returns then these will be clearly marked “guaranteed” in the illustration table on
this page. If your policy offers variable returns then the illustrations on this page will show two
different rates of assumed future investment returns. These assumed rates of return are not
guaranteed and they are not the upper or lower limits of what you might get back as the value
of your policy is dependent on a number of factors including future investment performance.”

ii) The non-guaranteed benefits (1) and (2) in above illustration are calculated so that
they are consistent with the Projected Investment Rate of Return assumption of 6%
p.a.(Scenario 1) and 10% p.a. (Scenario 2) respectively. In other words, in preparing
this benefit illustration, it is assumed that the Projected Investment Rate of Return that
LICI will be able to earn throughout the term of the policy will be 6% p.a. or 10% p.a.,
as the case may be. The Projected Investment Rate of Return is not guaranteed.
iii) The main objective of the illustration is that the client is able to appreciate the
features of the product and the flow of benefits in different circumstances with some
level of quantification.
