Surrendering the policy

Surrender is allowed only after the policy becomes paid-up, i.e. after 2years’ premiums have been paid for a limited premium plan. Single Premium plans can be surrendered any time after the completion of the first policy year. On surrendering the policy, higher of the Guaranteed Surrender Value (GSV) or the Special Surrender Value (SSV) would be paid.
GSV = GSV Factor * the total premiums paid
The SSV would be declared by the company based on its performance and would be calculated as follows:
SSV = SSV Factor * Paid-up Value where the Paid-up Value is 210% of the total premiums paid.
The policyholder can avail the Surrender benefit in any of the following ways:
1/3rd of the Surrender Value could be withdrawn as lump sum and the remaining 2/3rd of the benefit should be used to buy an Immediate Annuity plan from the company
The entire amount of Surrender Value can be used to purchase an Immediate Annuity Plan from the company.
Alternatively, a Single Premium Deferred Annuity Plan can also be purchased from the company using the entire Surrender Value availed under the plan.
