Ye form Life Insurance Corporation of India ke servicing process ka part hai, lekin decision purely aapka hota hai.
Aur yahin par log sabse badi galti kar dete hain.
Surrender value ka amount policy ke type, term aur paid premiums par depend karta hai. Har LIC policy surrender ke liye eligible nahi hoti.
