Very Perfect.Thank you so much
This is helpful. Thanks a lot
I am not able to get through. DOB field is not correct even with 01/07/1960 or otherway.
I have completed 5 years of service with my employer and am resigning now.
My age is 36, male.
My SA balance with LIC is 3 lakhs.
I understand that i can withdraw 1/3rd of the corpus (ie. 1 lakh)
Now, the remaining corpus, of Rs. 2 lakh...will be used to calculated the pension amount.
My questions:
1. Am I eligible (by age) to start receiving pension from today?
2. What is the pension amount that I will receive (say, i choose the pension for life and return of corpus option)
I had spent so much time for searching information on this topic. But, a small number of sites I have found. In those, this one helped me a lot. Thanks for sharing wonderful information. If you want to know more about this topic, then click on the below links.
