Jeevan Kiran (Plan 870)

LIC Jeevan Kiran (870) is a Term Return of Premium (TROP) plan. Unlike pure term plans, if you survive the policy term, you get back ALL premiums paid (without interest). It provides death benefit during the term and ensures you never lose money.

Minimum entry age is 18 years and maximum entry age is 65 years.

No! From September 22, 2025, GST on all individual LIC policies including Jeevan Kiran is 0%. Earlier, endowment plans had 4.5% GST and term plans had 18% GST. This saves you significantly — for example, ₹10L SA endowment saves ₹2,688/yr.
