How SBI Money Back Policy Works
A money back policy from SBI is a financial product that combines life insurance with savings. It provides both protection and investment benefits. Here's how it works:
Key Features

Types of Money Back Policies

- Limited Pay Money Back Policy
Note: The actual returns may vary based on the policy type, term, and market conditions. This calculator provides an estimate based on typical assumptions.
Formula Used
The maturity benefit of a money back policy can be estimated using the following formula:
Maturity Benefit = Sum Assured + (Sum Assured × Interest Rate × Term) / 100
Where:
- Sum Assured: The amount you'll receive at maturity
- Interest Rate: The annual interest rate applied to your sum assured
- Term: The policy term in years
This formula provides an estimate of your potential returns. The actual returns may vary based on the policy type and market conditions.
Worked Example
Let's calculate the maturity benefit for a policy with the following details:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Sum Assured | ₹500,000 |
| Interest Rate | 5% |
| Term | 20 years |
Using the formula:
Maturity Benefit = ₹500,000 + (₹500,000 × 5% × 20) / 100
= ₹500,000 + (₹500,000 × 0.05 × 20) / 100
= ₹500,000 + ₹100,000
= ₹600,000
So, the estimated maturity benefit for this policy would be ₹600,000.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a money back policy and a term insurance policy?
A money back policy provides both life insurance coverage and savings benefits, while a term insurance policy only provides life coverage without savings benefits.
How is the interest rate determined for a money back policy?
The interest rate is typically determined by the insurance company based on market conditions and policy terms. It may vary between participating and non-participating policies.
Can I withdraw money from a money back policy?
Yes, you can withdraw money from a money back policy, but this may affect your maturity benefits and surrender value.
What happens if I die before the policy term ends?
If you pass away before the policy term ends, the sum assured will be paid to your beneficiaries, and any accumulated savings will be forfeited.
Is a money back policy taxable?
The maturity benefit from a money back policy is generally tax-free, but the premiums paid may be tax-deductible under certain conditions.
