Before proceeding further, let me tell you one thing that it is not that easy to become LIC agent and make money these days. People started understanding the importance of insurance and also how to analyse a product before buying.
As a LIC agent everyone is trying to sell the insurance policy which is having maximum commission rates. Let’s explore different types of LIC policies and how much commission one can make by selling a policy.
How To Become A LIC Agent & Earn Money In India?
Do you think it’s easy to become a LIC agent? It’s not that easy actually. You have to be qualified for that and accordingly apply for the same through LIC agent examination followed by an interview. Here is the step by step guide:
Procedure to become LIC Agent:
Step #1: Now the Education Qualification has been relaxed from HSC to 10th pass. Age is 18 years & above.
Step#2: Visit your nearest LIC of India branch and ask for the requirement or vacancy. They will ask you to complete the mandatory 25 hours of training first.
Step #3: After completion of the training sessions, you have to go through the LIC Pre Recruitment examination conducted by the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI).
Step #4: After successful completion of the examination you will be provided an Appointment Letter and Identity Card to work as an insurance agent. You will be a part of the existing team under your Development Officer. After that, you will be provided with all necessary trainings further.
Lic Endowment Plan Commission Rates
Here is the commission rates for an endowment policy from LIC of India. LIC has a couple of endowments policies and the below table will answer your queries for below policies.
- LIC’s Jeevan Utkarsh agent commission
- Lic’s Jeevan Pragati agent commission
- Lic’s Jeevan Labh agent commission
- Lic’s Single Premium Endowment Plan agent commission
- Lic’s New Endowment Plan agent commission
- Lic’s New Jeevan Anand agent commission
- LIC’s Jeevan Rakshak agent commission
- LIC’s Limited Premium Endowment Plan agent commission
- LIC’s Jeevan Lakshya agent commission
- LIC’s Aadhaar Shila agent commission
- LIC’s Aadhaar Stambh agent commission
| Premium Paying Term | Commission 1st Year | Commission From 2nd & 3rd year | Onward 4th year |
| 2 to 4 yr | 5% | 2.25% | 2.25% |
| 5 to 9 yr | 10% | 5% | 5% |
| 10 to 14 yr | 20% | 7.5% | 5% |
| 15 yr & above | 25% | 7.5% | 5% |
That means, for a longer term policy the earning potential in the first year is huge. And that’s the reason why LIC policies are not able to give a good return on investment in the long run.
LIC Money Back Plan Commission Rates
These are another popular type of insurance policies from LIC of India, which will be surely offered to your by LIC agents. Personally, I have seen my father has purchased couple fo such policies from relative who is LIC agent.
Here are the list of Money Back policies from LIC of India and you can checkout the commission rates below.
- LIC’s NEW MONEY BACK PLAN – 20 YEARS
- LIC’s NEW MONEY BACK PLAN – 25 YEARS
- LIC’s NEW BIMA BACHAT
- LIC’s NEW CHILDREN’S MONEY BACK PLAN
- LIC’s Jeevan Tarun Agent commission
| Premium Paying Term | Commission 1st Year | Commission From 2nd & 3rd year | Onward 4th year |
| As per plan | 15% | 10% | 6% |
| 12 year | 15% | 8% | 6% |
There are various other types of plans like LIC pension Plans (Jeevan Akshay VI policy) where the commission rates are very low. In fact in case LIC term plan (LIC E Term Plan) also the commission rate is very low.
That’s why none of the LIC agents offer you any of these policies. Mostly they will offer you money back plans or endowment plan as the commission structure is very high.
Example of Lic Agents Commission
To explain how much an LIC agent can earn, let’s take the example of LIC Jeevan Lakshya plan. To illustrate the income benefit of an LIC agent from this plan, let’s consider the below policy details
- Annual premium value 1,00,000
- Policy term 20 years (more than 15 years)
In that case, as per the above commission chart, the LIC Agent commission calculation will be like below
- 1st year 25% of 1 lakh = 25,000
- 2nd and 3rd year 7.5% of 1 lakh = 7500 x 2 = 15,000
- 4th year onward till 20 year 5% of 1 lakh = 5000 x 17 = 85,000
- Total of all = 25,000 + 15,000 + 85,000 = 1,25,000
Don’t Miss Should I surrender LIC Jeevan Anand Plan?
So just imagine how much profit LIC have to make and also how much LIC will be able to return to the insurer who actually paid the premium for this plan.
But don’t think in that way as it is the job of LIC agents and they have to reach their targets to keep their LIC agent license active. As per LIC Agents Minimum Business Guarantee (MBG) rules, every LIC agent must have to fulfill the targets.
If you want to make a career as an insurance agent in India, then LIC is without any doubt the best insurance company in India. There is no competition with others when we talk about the network. You can check out the claim settlement ratio and understand why LIC is such a big company. And that’s why LIC is able to pay such a huge Agent commission every year.
