The maturity value and IRR are calculated in the above illustration.
If each year an annual premium of Rs. 1 lakh is paid for 10 years, you get a maturity value under the Classic Benefit Option which is Rs 18.12 lakhs at the rate of 4% in the worst-case scenario or Rs.87.13 lakhs at the rate of 8% in the best-case scenario. Similarly, all benefit options can be read.
The rates of 4% & 8% are assumed rates of returns & are not guaranteed. They are not the upper or lower limits of what you might get back, as the value of the policy is dependent on several factors including your future investment performance.
The IRR(Internal Rate of Return) under various scenarios hovers around 1.69% & 6.24%.
These rates are equal to the fixed income rate of returns. HDFC Life Sampoorn Nivesh involves active management of investment but the return is similar to any fixed instrument return which does not compensate for the risk the policyholder has taken by investing in this ULIP.

HDFC Life Sampoorn Nivesh Plan Good or Bad Compared to Other Investment Plans? Review Conclusion
As we have analyzed the alternative investment options for HDFC Life Sampoorn Nivesh Plan, it seems very clear that Term Insurance + PPF or ELSS seem to be far better options.
Isn’t it surprising? But this is the truth with most of the new policies in the bazaar, old wine is marketed in new bottles!
Final Verdict on the HDFC Life Sampoorn Nivesh Plan – Good or Bad Investment Option?
HDFC Life Sampoorn Nivesh offers flexibility in choosing the death benefit with 3 options & fund with a choice of 14 fund options. You can switch your fund according to fund performance.
But after analyzing the IRR (Internal Rate of Return) under various plan options, it shows that the returns are not inflation-beating.
All ULIP policies in the bazaar are advertised promising they will provide benefits of life cover and market-linked returns on investment.
But that’s not the case, here high mortality charges & other investment charges are deducted from your premium & the net premium is only invested. As a result, at the time of redemption, the fund value will be low.
But why do insurance agents pester you to buy this plan? The answer is quite simple. Because of the high agent commission that they get!
Ultimately any investment should help you see your savings yield rich benefits and help you to accomplish your life’s financial goals.
To accomplish your life goals, analyze the plan/scheme before investing your hard-earned money.
Always keep your Life Insurance and Investment separate to achieve better results. Don’t fall for misleading information on social media platforms like Facebook, Quora, Twitter, etc
You can always consult with your Financial Advisor for guidance and customize your Financial Plan according to your risk appetite and Financial requirements.
