How To Pay LIC Premium Payment Online Through PayTM, Net Banking, Credit Card, and more

Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) is the largest insurance and investment corporation in India with a total of 290 million policyholders as of 2019. If you are a LIC policyholder, you are required to pay its premium on a monthly, quarterly, bi-yearly, or annual basis as usual.

Depending upon what policy you have bought, you will get health and life coverage, etc. Circling back to policy payments, LIC has made it quite easy to make the payments since you can do it via net banking, UPI apps like Google Pay and PayTM, credit cards, and more. Let’s have a look at all the ways you can use to pay the premium payments online.
