You can see in the above image, I took the example of 10 lakh sum assured, age 30 years, premium paying term is 15 yrs, and policy term is 20 years.

In addition, the premium per year is Rs.82,545, and the premium contains all the rider’s premium also.

But, you can see the ROI ( return on investment) from this plan is only 3.66%.

  • The return of 3.66% is far below the present bank FD interest rate of 5.6% ( approx).
  • In addition, the return is 3.66% even after guaranteed additions given by this plan.
  • Some people may argue that this plan is good if you consider the tax-free maturity when compared with Bank Fd interest.
  • But you should think over sukanya samadhi or pdf investment which giving almost double the ROI of this plan.
  • Some People will argue that we should not forget the insurance coverage benefits in this plan.
  • Read this article why you should not mix your life insurance with savings.
  • In addition, it is always wise to take term insurance for life insurance coverage.

Conclusion…

Once again, I am repeating that the ROI of 3.66% too low to consider this bima jyoti plan to invest your money.

This kind of plan only makes your insurance agent rich not you.  I am going to write an article that how much a life insurance agent earns and how much you will earn from a life insurance policy.

Finally, you always should consider term insurance risk coverage and mutual funds, PPF, sukanya sammridhi yojana, etc for wealth creation purposes.
