The Sum Assured on Death is highest of the following:
● 10 times the annualized premium
● 10 times the annual premium
● 105% of the total premiums paid till the date of death of the insured
● The absolute sum assured^ at the date of death
^Absolute sum is 10 times the annualized premium throughout the policy term in case of payment premium term of 7 years. For policies with payment premium term of 12-year, it is 10 times the annualized premium period during the first policy year increasing at each policy anniversary uniformly up to 15 times of the Annualized Premium during the premium payment term. From 12th Policy Year Sum Assured will be 15 times the Annualized Premium throughout the Policy Term.
Guaranteed Income is calculated by the below formula: GI = Guaranteed Maturity Benefit * Guaranteed Income Factor / 1000. The Guaranteed Income Factor depends on the policy term and premium payment term selected.
For a 7-year term, GI starts at the end of 10th year; for a 12-year term, it begins at the end of 15th year.
If the life assured passes away before the policy matures, future GI payments will stop, and the death benefit will be paid instead, with any GI received after death deducted from this benefit.
You will have a grace period of 15 days if you pay your premium monthly, and a 30-day grace period if you pay annually.
You can revive your Lapsed/Reduced Paid-up policy within five years from the due date of the first unpaid premium by following these simple steps:
• Giving a written request to the Company within 5 years from the due date of first unpaid premium and producing a proof of continued insurability
• Fulfilling all medical and financial requirements as required by the Company as per the Board approved Underwriting Policy (the cost of medical examination, if any, will be borne by you i.e. Policyholder/Life Assured).
If the life assured happens to die by committing suicide within 12 months from the commencement of risk or the date of policy revival, the nominee will receive the higher amount between 80% of the total premiums paid up to the date of death or the surrender value available on that date, provided the policy is active.
The surrender value you will receive is the higher of the GSV, i.e. the Guaranteed Surrender Value or the SSV, i.e. the Special Surrender Value.
● The policy will acquire Special Surrender Value after you pay premiums for one full policy year.
● It will acquire a Guaranteed Surrender Value after you pay premiums for two consecutive full policy years.
