LIC Jeevan Amar Plan will be sold in two categories. Level sum assured and Increasing sum assured.
Level Sum Assured – Under level sum assured, the basic sum assured amount will remain constant throughout the policy year. Your nominee will receive the basic sum assured in case of unfortunate death of the policyholder.
Increasing sum Assured – Under increasing sum assured, basic sum assured will increase with the age. If a policyholder has opted for increasing sum assured nominee will receive an initial sum assured for the first five years. From 6th year to 15th-year sum assured will increase 10% per year. From 16th years onward till policy term sum assured will remain same. This means death benefit in case of increasing sum assured will depend on policy year of death. You nominee will receive death benefit as per applicability.
The death benefit described above is same as that for LIC Tech Term Plan.

Over to you –
LIC Tech Term and LIC Jeevan Amar both are term plan only difference is in sum assured and mode of purchase. Although LIC Tech term and LIC Jeevan Amar features are same you will find big difference in the premium amount. You need to pay more money for buying Jeevan Amar.
As far as flexibility and features it is a very good plan. It also provides a benefit of increasing in sum assured. This means you need not to purchase an additional policy at a later stage.
If you have not purchased term plan and looking for recommendation in making selection between Tech Term and Jeevan Amar. My advice would be to purchase online term plan LIC Tech Term.
