    • LIC JEEVAN SARAL PLAN WILL PAY LOYALTY ADDITIONS AFTER MATURITY OF THE POLICY AND THIS IS NOT NORMAL BONUS BUT IT IS LOYALTY ADDITION WHICH WILL DEPEND ON LIC'S INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE FOR THIS PLAN.

  • What about Jeevan Shree (old) Table 112. I do not see any details for last two years. Can you please help me on this and provide the bonus and other details if any.

  • While checking my policy status online, I find that the new bonus details are not updated. When are they likely to be updated?
