LIC Premium Payment (प्रीमियम भुगतान) can be done both ways either Online or Offline, Because of the Internet facility in India the LIC Premium Online Payment is easy and available with Auto Debit Facility.
What I mean to say is that I have an IDBI Bank account and the same day I started my LIC Endowment Policy of 18k per year Premium; the bank employee linked my account with the policy and now every year on the 30th of August my LIC Premium get auto debited and I just make sure the sufficient amount is there in the bank account.
Warning: Based on my Personal Experience, if your LIC Policy is linked with your Bank account and if you do not have sufficient balance for auto-debit then you might get a penalty of Rs.500 for payment default. So to avoid this penalty make sure you maintain a sufficient amount of balance for the period of auto debit.
