    On confirmation of the registration, LIC will regularly send the bills/invoices mentioning the due dates, premium amount, late fees, validity date, etc to the service provider/bank. 

    As and when premium becomes payable under the registered policy, LIC sends the bills to the bank/service provider, and the information will be displayed by the bank/service provider in your net-banking account page.

    What are the charges for the payment through BILL PRESENTMENT?
    The System is free for the customers. For LIC payments no extra amount will be charged by the banks or the service providers.

    What are the important points to be noted for availing this payment facility?
    Once registered for Premiums payments thru Net-Banking/Phone-Banking, you should avoid paying at cash counters, because there are many instances where payment for the same due-month is received twice. 

    Since renewal premium receipts are dispatched to the postal address as per your policy records, please ensure that your policy records are updated with your current address. 

    In case you have not received the renewal premium receipt, you may collect the premium paid certificate from any of the nearest LIC branch. Duplicate receipts cannot be printed in any case. 

    As the payment is received by LIC through the Bank or the service provider, same may not be received on the same day of payment by the policy holder, hence there is short time-lag between the date of debit in your bank account and the date when the policy reflects the updated status.
