The central government, in collaboration with Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), is running the Bima Sakhi Yojana 2025. This scheme is helping women across India earn around ₹7,000 every month by working as LIC agents. Women also receive a commission on selling insurance policies, making it a good opportunity for financial independence. However, many women are still unaware of this scheme.
The Bima Sakhi Yojana aims to create employment opportunities for women who want to work but lack proper resources. It allows women in both rural and urban areas to join LIC as agents after basic training. Along with employment, the scheme also spreads financial literacy and promotes self-reliance among women.
The scheme was launched on 9 December 2024 and has received an excellent response. Minister of State for Finance, Pankaj Chaudhary, informed Parliament that more than 2 lakh women have already joined. On average, these women are earning ₹7,000 per month.
In FY 2024-25, LIC paid ₹62.36 crore to Insurance Sakhis.
For FY 2025-26, LIC has allocated a budget of ₹520 crore.
Till July 14, ₹115.13 crore has already been paid.
This shows the government’s efforts to expand the scheme and provide income opportunities to more women.
Only Indian women can apply for this scheme. The eligibility conditions are:
Age limit: 18 to 70 years.
Education: Minimum 10th pass.
Excluded: Existing insurance agents, retired LIC employees, and their close relatives.

₹6,000/month in the 2nd year (with 65% policies active).
₹5,000/month in the 3rd year (again, 65% policies must stay active).
Apart from the stipend, women also earn a commission up to ₹48,000 in the first year on LIC policies. This provides both fixed income and performance-based earnings.
