Dear Sir/Madam,

My father has LIC policy with the Plan 149(Jeevan Anand). We are paying LIC premiums 7120 from 09/02/2004. My father has stopped maintaing these LIC payments after paying the first premium. Last year I have paid around 35 thousand rupees for the remaining 4 years premiums. Next year we are planning to do my sister marriage. For that we need Loan on this LIC account. Could you please let me know how much amount we will get on this account as a loan.

Please note that we are trying to pay the remaining premiums this month.

Thanks in advance.

If you dont want to continue your Jeevan Anand Insurance policy then you can stop it afer 3 years. You can surely surrender Jeevan Anand but I would not suggest that instead keep the policy with lower risk cover. Talk to your LIC Agent for more details.
