Deposit Linked Insurance Scheme

 DLI   - Deposit Linked Insurance Scheme


  • DLI stands for Deposit Linked Insurance  

 

  • Introduced w.e.f.,  08.01.1975 

 

  • Object: 1. To provide extra social security to the families of subscribers to SRPF  2. A positive incentive to Railway employees who save more (in their PF Account) 

 

  • Payment of Premium is not required. 

 


  • Minimum qualifying balance is as follows: 



Grade Pay

Minimum qualifying balance in the last 36 months at the credit of the PF account of the deceased employee. 

Grade Pay 4800 and above

Rs. 25000

Grade Pay 4200 to Grade Pay 4800

Rs. 15000

Grade Pay 1400 to Grade Pay 4200

Rs. 10000

Grade Pay 1300

Rs. 6000



  • Payment: The minimum balance available in PF account during the last 36 months subject to the ceiling limit of Rs. 60,000 will be paid to the heir of deceased employee. 


Example 1: Mr A whose Grade Pay is 4200 died on 05.01.2022.  His minimum balance in PF account during the last 36 months prior to January, 2022 is Rs. 16000.  So DLI payment to the heir of Mr A is Rs. 16000 


Example 2: Mr B whose Grade Pay is 1300 died on 05.01.2022.  His minimum balance in PF account during the last 36 months prior to January, 2022 is Rs. 5900.  Since the minimum balance i.e Rs.5900 is less than minimum required is Rs.6000, the heir of Mr B is not eligible for DLI.  


Example 3: Mr C whose Grade Pay is 4800 died on 05.01.2022.  His minimum balance in PF account during the last 36 months prior to January, 2022 is Rs. 72000.  So DLI payment to the heir of Mr C is Rs.60000 which is maximum under DLI scheme.
