Dear
LIC declares bonus each year which gets attached to Policy but one can not use it till maturity
For example :
You have sum assured of Rs 10 lakh for 20 years endowment plan then you shall get a bonus of Rs 30 per 1000 of sum assured . which means you will get bonus of Rs 30000 on first policy anniversary . But this Rs 30000 would remain same till maturity . In same way you shall get Rs 30000 for each policy year .
After 20 years , you shall receive Rs 10 lakh plus Rs 6 lakh i.e Rs 30000 * 20 years . This 30000 each year is called vested bonus .
