  • Dear Sir,
    With due respects and humble submissions, I beg to state that I am a Development Officer working in a rural area called Bongaigaon Division in Eastern Zone of Assam and Western Meghalaya since 1999.
    Sir, I would like to know about Maturity Settlement Options of Maturity Claims. I use this as a Marketing tool and have very successfully used this to grow my business manifold. But Sir, the circular in this regard that I possess is that of 2005. Therefore, the Rates of Settlement option payable per Rs 1000 Maturity Sum Assured is different. I even fail to calculate the settlement options manually to reach the exact figures. However, Sir, I do have the software utility of Maturity settlement option developed by you. Sri Mana Valan, Development officer, Chennai , sent it to me on request and that has proved extremely beneficial.
    I shall be highly obliged if you can send me the latest LIC circular in this regard and method to calculate Maturity settlement options manually at the present declared rate of 6 %. I shall also be pleased if you can send me the Latest Rates of Settlement Option payable per Rs 1000 maturity Sum Assured payable Yearly or Half Yearly for 2 to 10 years.
    My email address is joy03661papu@yahoo.co.in . I shall be extremely happy to hear from you. Here’s hoping that you will respond after receiving mine. Have a blessed day Sir.
    Thanking you and expecting responses,
    Yours authentically,
    Mr. Joy deep Choudhury
    Development Officer
