Each and every one of the options is a future liability.

Not sure with this answer. NSC is a short term national debt.

National saving certificates is the certificates which is issued bye government. To general public to raise short term finance!

I don't think so. NSC is a scheme, which provides tax deduction to the assessee.

LIC is a company, but the above given is a policy which have to be settled later.

I think it is similar to different government bonds so it should be taken as a liability but I am not quite sure about it because not sure about the policy issued for national saving certificate.

Answer is life insurance policies. Other 3 are considered in calculating national debt. LIC is an independent corporation.

Yes I'm also agree with him because if there is no particular reason similarly the provident fund is also to pay the govt bonds.

Rajni said:   1 decade ago
Yes these all are future liabilities.

Life insurance policy is a national debt, because it has to be rapy on the occurance of particular event. Similarly providnt fund is also needed to pay and also the govt bonds are needed to pay.

But I am not sure about nsc, because I feel it's also a future liability. I doubt the answere.
