Formula Used

The maturity value of a LIC policy is calculated using the compound interest formula:

Maturity Value = P × (1 + r/n)^(n×t)

Where:

P = Initial investment (₹100,000)
r = Annual interest rate (in decimal)
n = Number of times interest is compounded per year
t = Time the money is invested for (in years)

This formula accounts for the compounding effect, which means the interest earned each period is added to the principal, and future interest is calculated on this new amount.

Worked Example

Let's calculate the maturity value of a ₹100,000 LIC policy with an annual interest rate of 8% compounded annually over 15 years.

Maturity Value = ₹100,000 × (1 + 0.08/1)^(1×15)

Maturity Value = ₹100,000 × (1.08)^15

Maturity Value ≈ ₹100,000 × 3.2728

Maturity Value ≈ ₹327,280

In this example, the policy would mature to approximately ₹327,280 after 15 years. The actual amount may vary based on the exact terms of your policy.
