1. What is the LIC Pension Plan Single Premium Calculator?

The LIC Pension Plan Single Premium Calculator helps you estimate the monthly pension amount you will receive based on a single premium payment and the applicable annuity rate. This is useful for retirement planning with LIC pension schemes.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

Where:

• \( Single\ Premium \) — The one-time premium amount paid (INR)
• \( Annuity\ Rate \) — The rate at which the premium is converted to pension (decimal)
