What Affects Policy Results in Postal Life Insurance (PLI)?

Several key factors influence the performance and projected results of a Postal Life Insurance (PLI) policy. Your selected configuration — including entry age, maturity age, sum assured, policy term, and premium frequency — directly determines outcomes such as premium amount, maturity value, bonus accumulation, rebates, and overall returns. Below is a detailed breakdown of how each factor impacts policy results:

What affects premium amount in a Postal Life Insurance policy?
  • Premium amount increases as the policy term decreases and vice-versa (for the same sum assured amount).
  • Premium amount increases with higher entry age and decreases with a lower entry age.
  • Premium amount increases as sum assured increases and vice-versa.
  • Premium amount decreases as rebates increase and vice-versa.
  • Total Premium amount decreases with longer premium payment frequency — yearly payment frequency results in lowest total premium amount and monthly payment frequency results in highest total premium amount.
  • Premium amount per-installment increases with longer payment frequency — monthly payment frequency results in lowest premium amount per-installment and yearly payment frequency results in highest premium amount per-installment.
What affects maturity value in a Postal Life Insurance policy?
  • Maturity value increases as sum assured increases and vice-versa.
  • Maturity value increases as bonus accumulation increases and vice-versa.
  • Maturity value increases as poliy term increases and vice-versa.
What affects bonus value in a Postal Life Insurance policy?
  • Total bonus accumulation increases as sum assured increases and vice-versa. As bonus is calculated per ₹1,000/- of sum assured.
  • Total bonus accumulation increases as policy term increases and vice-versa. As bonus accumulates yearly.
  • Bonus starts accumulating once the policy exceeds the minimum qualifying term (i.e. 5 years).
  • The bonus rate remains constant throughout the policy once applicable.
  • Bonus rate varies by policy type (e.g., ₹52 per ₹1,000 sum assured for Endowment, ₹76 for Whole Life, etc.).
What affects rebates on premium in a Postal Life Insurance policy?

What affects policy term in a Postal Life Insurance policy?
  • Policy term increases as entry age decreases and maturity age increases. For the same entry age, a higher maturity age results in a longer term and for the same maturity age, an earlier entry age results in a longer term.

  • Net returns increase as maturity value increases and vice-versa.
  • Net returns increase as bonus accumulation increases and vice-versa.

Illustration of Santosh (Endowment Assurance) Policy Premium and Maturity Benefits

If Ravi, at the age of 25, purchases Santosh policy with a sum assured of ₹10,00,000. Depending on the maturity age selection of 50, 55, or 60 years — how monthly premium, total investment, maturity value and returns change is explained below.

Policy with a sum assured of ₹10 lakhs at the age of 25 with maturity age of 50 years

If Ravi chooses to mature the policy at age 50, his monthly premium (excluding GST) will be approximately ₹3,200, and over the full policy term, his total premium payment will be around ₹9.79 lakhs. At maturity, he will receive a total payout of ₹23.01 lakhs, which includes the sum assured plus accumulated bonuses — giving him a net financial gain of approximately ₹13.21 lakhs, or a 135% return over his investment.

Policy with a sum assured of ₹10 lakhs at the age of 25 with maturity age of 55 years

If Ravi chooses maturity age of 55, his monthly premium reduces to ₹2,600, and the total premium he pays over time also reduces to about ₹9.49 lakhs. Yet, his maturity value increases to ₹25.61 lakhs, giving him a net return of ₹16.11 lakhs, which translates to 170% return on investment.

Policy with a sum assured of ₹10 lakhs at the age of 25 with maturity age of 60 years

If Ravi selects maturity age of age 60, his monthly premium drops further to just ₹2,200, and he ends up paying a total premium of approximately ₹9.32 lakhs across the term. The total payout at maturity will be ₹28.21 lakhs, resulting in a net gain of ₹18.88 lakhs — an impressive 203% return on investment.

Below is the table with figures illustrating the above scenario.

Entry Age Maturity Age Sum Assured Monthly Premium (Excl. GST) Total Premium (with rebates & GST) Total Maturity Amount Returns (Net financial gain) ROI
25 years 50 years ₹ 10,00,000/- ₹ 3,200/- ₹ 9,79,000/- ₹ 23,01,000/- ₹ 13,21,000/- 135%
25 years 55 years ₹ 10,00,000/- ₹ 2,600/- ₹ 9,49,000/- ₹ 25,61,000/- ₹ 16,11,000/- 170%
25 years 60 years ₹ 10,00,000/- ₹ 2,200/- ₹ 9,32,000/- ₹ 28,21,000/- ₹ 18,88,000/- 203%

This scenario shows how choosing a longer policy term in the Santosh policy not only reduces your monthly financial burden, but also maximizes your maturity benefit and overall returns — all while maintaining life cover for the entire duration.

How Santosh Policy Results Are Calculated?

The PLI Endowment Assurance (Santosh) calculator uses official POLI rules to compute key policy outcomes based on your input values: date of birth, maturity age, sum assured, and premium frequency.

Here’s a simplified breakdown of the core calculation logic:

  • Policy Term (in years) = Maturity Age – Entry Age
  • (Policy Term is the total number of years between entry age and the chosen maturity age.)

  • Total Premium Installments = Policy Term × Installments per Year
  • (Based on your selected premium frequency: Monthly = 12, Quarterly = 4, Half-Yearly = 2 and Yearly = 1)

  • Base Premium (per installment) = Premium Rate for Santosh policy × Sum Assured
  • (Calculated using premium rate slabs defined in POLI rules for Santosh policy, based on entry age and maturity age.)

  • Rebate per premium = (Sum Assured ÷ 20,000)
  • Total Rebate = (Sum Assured ÷ 20,000) × Policy Term × 12 (months)
  • (Rebate of ₹1/month is given for every ₹20,000 of sum assured, applied monthly across the policy duration. All rates of rebate are applied automatically in the calculator as per official Post Office Life Insurance (POLI) rules for Santosh policy.)

  • GST on each premium payment = Premium After Rebate × GST Rate
  • No GST on premium from , (Old rate, First Year GST Rate = 4.5% & Renewal GST Rate from second year onward = 2.25%)

  • Total GST = GST per Premium × Total Installments
  • (The GST for the first year and rest of term are calculated separately. Total GST amount includes sum of GST on premiums for the first year and for the rest of the term. All GST rates are applied automatically in the calculator as per official Postal Life Insurance (POLI) rules.)

  • Total Premium = (Base Premium × Total Installments) – Total Rebate + Total GST
  • (The total amount you’ll pay over the policy term, with deducted rebates and added GST.)

  • Bonus = (Sum Assured × Bonus Rate × Policy Term) / 1000
  • (Bonus rate = ₹52 per ₹1,000 sum assured per year)

    (In bonus calculation, if policyholder passes away then policy term will be calculated up to the date of death from entry age. If policyholder survives for full term then the policy term will be taken up to maturity age from entry age.)

  • Terminal Bonus (one time payment) = (Sum Assured × Terminal Bonus Rate) / 10000; maximum ₹1,000/-
  • (Terminal bonus rate = ₹20 per ₹10,000 sum assured, only for the policy term over 20 years)

    (All bonus rates are applied automatically in the calculator as per official Postal Life Insurance (POLI) rules.)

  • Total Bonus = Bonus (Annual) + Terminal Bonus (One time)
  • (Total bonus is the sum of bonus accrued annualy and applicable terminal bonus.)

  • Death benefit = Sum Assured + Total Bonus accrued till the date of death
  • (Death benefit is the amount the assignee, nominee or lega heir receives if policyholder dies during the term.)

  • Maturity Value = Sum Assured + Total Bonus
  • (This is the amount policyholder receives at the end of the term if the policy is not surrendered and the policyholder survives for full term.)

  • Net Gain = Maturity Value – Total Premium Paid
  • (Net gain Indicates the return on your investment in the policy.)
