I have Jeevan arogiya LIC policy. Paying premium RS15909 per year for my wife and for me. Can I surrender . Will I get any back?
Ans: Firstly, I commend your proactive approach in evaluating your financial decisions, especially regarding insurance policies like LIC Jeevan Arogya. It's essential to understand the implications of surrendering such policies.

Understanding LIC Jeevan Arogya
LIC Jeevan Arogya is a health insurance policy that provides coverage against hospitalization expenses. It offers benefits such as hospital cash benefits and surgical benefits, aiming to support your healthcare costs.

Considering Surrendering Your Policy
Surrender Value
Before surrendering your LIC Jeevan Arogya policy, it's crucial to check its surrender value. The surrender value is the amount you will receive if you decide to terminate the policy before its maturity.

Calculation Factors
The surrender value depends on various factors, including the premium paid, the policy's tenure, and any bonuses accrued. Typically, health insurance policies like LIC Jeevan Arogya do not accumulate cash value like traditional life insurance policies.

Potential Outcomes
Partial Surrender
Some insurance policies allow for partial surrender, where you can withdraw a portion of the accumulated value while keeping the policy active.

Policy Lapse
If you stop paying premiums without surrendering, the policy may lapse, and you may lose all benefits and the premiums paid.

Considerations Before Surrendering
Alternative Options
Before surrendering, consider if there are alternative options such as reducing coverage or modifying the policy to better suit your needs.

Financial Impact
Evaluate the financial impact of surrendering. Calculate the surrender value and compare it with the benefits received and future premium payments.

Health Coverage
Ensure you have adequate health coverage in place before surrendering. Health insurance is crucial for unexpected medical expenses.

Consulting a Certified Financial Planner
Expert Advice
A Certified Financial Planner (CFP) can provide personalized advice based on your specific situation. They can help you understand the surrender value and explore alternatives.

Long-Term Financial Goals
Consider how surrendering the policy aligns with your long-term financial goals. Redirecting funds to investments that offer better growth potential might be beneficial.

Final Insights
Surrendering an insurance policy like LIC Jeevan Arogya should be a well-thought-out decision. Assess the surrender value, understand the financial implications, and consider consulting a Certified Financial Planner to guide you through the process.

Hello. I have an LIC Policy - Jeevan Asha II that was started in 2003. I have been paying yearly premiums, and it matured in 2023. The premiums were ~30k yearly paid till 2022(i.e 20 years), and the Table & Term was 131 - 20. Now in 2023 I have received maturity amount of ~12lc and LIC deducted TDS of ~45k. Does this mean the interest income added to my income from this would be 4.5Lc? Or are there any tax rebates for LIC policies that were started that long ago?
Ans: Policy Overview

Your LIC policy matured in 2023.
You received a maturity amount of around Rs. 12 lakhs.
LIC deducted a TDS of Rs. 45,000.
Interest Income and Tax Implications
TDS indicates interest income is added to your income.
In this case, the interest income appears to be Rs. 4.5 lakhs.
Interest income from such policies is taxable.
Tax Rebates for Old LIC Policies
Policies started before 2012 might have different tax rules.
Check if your policy qualifies for any old tax exemptions.

Assessing the Financial Outcome
Your premiums were about Rs. 30,000 yearly.
You paid premiums for 20 years.
Evaluate if the maturity amount meets your financial goals.

Evaluating Investment Options
Consider reinvesting the maturity amount.
Actively managed funds can offer better returns.
Engage a Certified Financial Planner for personalized advice.
Avoiding Index Funds and Direct Funds
Index funds have limited potential in volatile markets.
Actively managed funds provide better risk management.
Regular funds through an MFD with CFP offer professional guidance.

Final Insights
Analyze your overall investment strategy.
Ensure your investments align with your financial goals.
Regularly review and adjust your portfolio for optimal performance.

Sir the median package at ssnce for cse core is less than rvce ise .So does it make more viable option considering placement in mind .I have a dream of becoming software engineer from my childhood. But my seniors are advising for rvce ise.what to do should I follow my dream or placement.I am a Bangalore resident and Tamil is my mother tongue.
Ans: Ashwin, my son, graduated from RVCE in 2023 and secured employment through campus placement with a reputable software company. Despite being among the highest achievers in COMEDK, he opted for ECE instead of the more accessible CSE. We did not compel him to join CSE. Following his second year, he progressively shown an interest in software and obtained several certifications through NPTEL, Internshala, and similar platforms. Regarding his experience, while ISE is commendable, CSE is the superior option. Simply enter 'RV placement statistics 2024'. Select the initial result to get the Placement Statistics of RV directly. The top placements are for Computer Science Engineering, followed by Electronics and Communication Engineering, and then Information Science Engineering. The recommendations of your seniors, your personal interests, and the branch with the highest placement statistics are distinct considerations. Kindly review the Course Curriculum for both CSE and ISE and make a decision. Kindly review one of my detailed responses below, in which I have explicitly outlined the stages, recommendations, and methods that a first-year engineering student should adhere to till their fourth year for campus placement. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future.
