LIC term insurance is costlier than others

Insurance Premium of term insurance plan of LIC is very costly than other insurer in India. What would be the reason?If 30yrs old person gets term insurance than Yearly premium would be rs 19000 for 1cr sum assured policy even though private insurer charge approx 10 to 11k only.
Few reasons to ponder prior to take LIC term insurance:

LIC CLAIM RATIO: LIC CLAIM statement is the highest in the world Its 98.3% as per IRDA data. We all know LIC has huge customers but maintaining greatest CLAIM RATIO .

Government’s backing: LIC is paying huge dividends to government from its Yearly profit . On the contrary Government provides sovereign Guarantee on each policies . Which is not available in PRIVATE INSURER.

Mortality Rate: it is basic ingredient to calculate premium of any policies . But we know that mortality Rate is common for all insurer. Private company must not reduce it. Even though longevity of every citizen has been increased and on an average people living 72 years normally.Which is common for all insurance company

Admin Charge: LIC has the lowest administration charge amongst almost all insurers. Salary of LIC staff,Offices and all other expenditure is very less in LIC.It is visible to all.

Note: The only reason for high premium of its Guaranteed CLAIM payments. One can take online term insurance from LIC with reduced premium.

National Automated Clearing House (NACH) for LIC Policy

If you are taking a LIC policy in monthly mode then you have to submit NACH form along with LIC proposal. NACH is a replacement of ECS (electric clearance service) form. As you must know ECS was giving authority to your bank for monthly deduction from your account, same thing NACH will do .

But one basic difference is that you have to pay two month’s premium to start the policy ,whereas, through ECS only one month premium was needed to log in your policy in LIC .

One benefit is there ,Now you don’t need to go to concern BANK to get stamp on this NACH ,like it was in practice in ECS form.
