how much return will you get
Suppose you are depositing a lump sum of Rs 5 lakh in the policy at the age of 30 or 35 and ask to fix the pension after 20 years. So you will get pension at the rate of interest of about 21.6% per annum. In this sense, after 20 years, you will get 1.05 lakh rupees every year or about 9 thousand rupees every month for life. If your deposit is Rs 10 lakh then monthly pension will be Rs 17500 i.e. Rs 2.10 lakh per annum. You can get this return on monthly, quarterly, half yearly and yearly basis also.
