LIC Policy Status – Check Online by Policy Details & SMS

By:MoneyChai Insurance Last Updated: 19 Jun, 2019

How to check LIC policy status online by policy number or policy details by SMS?

My friend Ritvik bought a policy from Life Insurance Company (LIC) last year for tax saving purposes during the tax declaration period. At the time of buying the LIC policy, Ritvik also filled an Electronic Clearing Service (ECS) form through which his premium will be deducted automatically. However, his ECS was rejected by the bank due to mismatch in his signature, but the bank/LIC office did not inform him about rejection of ECS request. This year when Ritvik was trying to get the premium receipt online, he was shocked when he realized that there was no premium deduction made from his account towards his policy.  Further, the status of his policy was in lapsed stage.

This could have been easily averted if Ritvik had checked the status of his LIC at periodic intervals. Now Ritvik was left with no other option than paying additional amount as of interest to revive the policy. This was clearly wastage of hard earned money and wastage of time as he was not able to pay his premium online and was asked to visit the local LIC branch.

After visiting the LIC branch, Ritvik came up to me and asked –

  1. Is there any way to check LIC Policy Status Online?
  2. Can we search for LIC policy number by name?
  3. Is it possible to find LIC policy status without registration?
  4. How to check LIC policy status by policy number?

The answers to these questions are very simple:

  1. Yes, you can check the status of LIC policy online, sitting at your home, with a click on the mouse of your computer. It is that simple and easy
  2. No, we cannot search LIC policy number by name of the policy holder. Names are not unique and there will be many people with the similar first and last names enrolled in LIC policies.  It will be very difficult to navigate through those hundreds or thousands of names and locate the right policy holder.  But most importantly, this will enable data hackers to pull out sensitive financial information of the policy holders if LIC starts displaying policy numbers by name.
  3. No, it is not possible to locate the LIC policy status online without registration since every policy has a unique number which is attached to one’s Date of Birth and Name. However, you can still find the LIC policy status without registration through SMS services and/or using LIC’s helpline number
  4. It is very easy to track LIC policy status by policy number once you register yourself on LIC’s portal and its free to check it. Please note that LIC offers multiple services to its registered users.

Importance of Checking LIC Policy Status Online

Life Insurance policies are meant to protect one’s family members in case of any contingencies.  If the premiums are not paid on time, the policy will lapse and your family members will not get the benefits that they are entitled to in case something happens to you. Also, revival of a lapsed policy is very difficult if the policy has lapsed for more than 6 months.

So, I think it is far better to check one’s LIC policy status at regular intervals. It hardly takes couple of minutes to check your LIC policy status with the policy number online.

Similarly, you can also check your policy status by using the SMS services and calling on helpline numbers. Please note that the LIC helpline numbers are different for different regions.
