I think,life imprisonment means imprisonment for life, unless there is a commutation under Sec 55 I.P.C.

life imprisonment has got only one meaning i.e one will have to stay behind the bar for rest of his life.If for his good conduct the president condons the tenure then the matter is different, otherwise the same meaning will prevail.
