The country's largest insurance company offers many types of schemes for its customers. Most of the schemes of LIC are long-term. In this, options of monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, and yearly premiums are given. The yearly premium becomes high. Many times account holders are unable to deposit the premium due to various problems and do not even surrender the policy. In such a situation, their money remains with LIC. If there is no claim for a certain period, it is considered an unclaimed amount.
Apart from this, if a policyholder dies due to any reason and his nominee does not claim the amount for years, then this amount is also considered unclaimed after a certain time. Like the bank, LIC also has several crores lying in the name of Unclaimed Amounts. There is no claimant for this. If you also feel that some money is due to you, but you do not have accurate information about it, then there is nothing to worry about. LIC provides this facility to the policyholders and their dependents so that they can easily check death claims, maturity claims, premium refunds, or any other type of unclaimed amount online. Know the method here.
