About Post Life Insurance
Postal Life Insurance (PLI) was established on February 1, 1884, as a welfare system for postal employees, and was later extended. From 2017, it became accessible to a larger segment of the public. Professionals such as doctors, engineers, management consultants, chartered accountants, architects, lawyers, bankers, and others have access to life insurance plans under PLI, as well as staff members of listed businesses on the NSE and BSE (Bombay Stock Exchange).
