LIC's Jeevan Shanti Plan 850


          LIC Jeevan Shanti is a new single premium guaranteed pension plan which is launched on 12th September 2018. It offers the guaranteed pension with options like an immediate pension or deferred pension.

          You may be aware that LIC’s Jeevan Akshay VI also offers the guaranteed pension plan. However, LIC’s Jeevan Akshay is an immediate annuity plan. Maybe for this reason, LIC came with plan LIC Jeevan Shanti. This plan offers both immediate pension and deferred pension plan.


Before proceeding further, first, let us understand few terminologies used in retirement plans.

What is the meaning of annuity?
           In simple term, you can say it as a Pension, where you will get regular income up to the specified period or conditions. There are two types of annuity.
 1) Immediate Annuity-In this case, you invest a lump sum in a product and your pension or annuity starts immediately. Let us say you have around Rs.1 Cr and if you buy immediate annuity plans, then the pension will start immediately from next month.
 2) Deferred Annuity-In this case your annuity starts after a certain period. Let us say your current age is 30 years and you are planning to retire at the age of 60 years. If you buy a deferred annuity plan, then you will invest up to your retirement age i.e. up to 60 years of age. After 60 years of retirement, your pension will start.
