LIC Policy Revival Slabs: Options, Calculations, & Medical Rules
Allowing an insurance policy to remain lapsed defeats the purpose of securing family protection and building long-term wealth. LIC offers a liberal **5-year revival window** to restore your lapsed policy back to full force. By paying premium backlogs alongside late fees, you can reactivate all life covers and stackable riders without losing historical bonus accumulations.
| Policy Status | Lapse Duration | Late Fee Interest | Underwriting Requirements |
|---|---|---|---|
| In Grace Period | Under 30 Days (15 days for monthly) | ₹0 (Interest-Free) | No forms. Standard payment. |
| Lapsed (Eligible) | Between 1 Month and 60 Months (5 Yrs) | 9.5% p.a. compounded half-yearly | Form 680 (DGH) + medical tests if cover/age is high |
| Revival Expired | Exceeds 60 Months (5 Years) | Cannot revive | Policy terminated. Paid-up/Surrender option only. |
The Actuarial Revival Mathematics
LIC implements compound interest mechanics for each premium due, calculated from its specific due date to the exact date of revival:
Late Fee Compound Interest
Interest rate is fixed at 9.5% per annum, compounded half-yearly, computed for each delayed installment:
Interest = Modal Premium × [(1 + 0.095 / 2)^(2 × t) - 1]Revival Campaign Concessions
LIC dynamically discounts late-fee interest based on overall premium size under periodic restoration campaigns:
Discount = Min(Interest × concession%, limit_cap)Standard Revival Schemes: Choosing the Right Path
Depending on the premium backlog and current financial health, you can opt for different revival paths:
Ordinary Revival
The standard path. You pay the full premium backlog plus accrued interest in a single lump-sum installment. Recommended if you have accumulated savings and wish to immediately secure active status.
Special Revival Scheme
Allowed once if the policyholder cannot pay backlogs. The Date of Commencement (DOC) is shifted forward. You only pay one fresh premium modal, but historical bonuses are adjusted based on the new term.
Instalment Revival
Ideal for temporary financial squeezes. LIC permits paying the backlog in split instalments over a period alongside your upcoming regular premiums, keeping cover active during recovery.
Required Documentation & Underwriting
Because a lapse represents a break in coverage, LIC requires basic underwriting declarations to ensure the policyholder remains in good health before resuming high-value life cover:
- Declaration of Good Health (Form 680): A simple self-declaration confirming that you have not suffered any major illnesses or undergone surgeries since the FUP. Mandatory if lapse exceeds 6 months.
- Special DGH (Form 680-A): Used for minor children or specifically structured retirement plans.
- Medical Examination Report (MER): If the total Sum Assured (or Sum at Risk) exceeds ₹5 Lakhs and the policyholder is above 45 years of age, an official check by an LIC-empanelled medical officer is required.
Tax Benefits of Policy Restoration
Restoring a lapsed policy reactivates two critical income tax shields under the active financial year:
- Section 80C Deduction: The base premium arrears paid during revival are fully tax-deductible up to ₹1.5 Lakhs under Section 80C, helping you claim substantial savings in the current assessment year.
- Section 10(10D) Shield: Restoring the policy to active status secures the 100% tax-free nature of all future maturity claims and accrued bonuses, avoiding the potential taxes applied to surrender payouts.
