In this plan, premium is paid till the end of the Premium Paying Term as chosen by you at the policy inception. Then the policy continues for another 5 years till the end of the Policy Term when it matures. There are 8 funds in which the Policyholder may choose to invest his money such that he gets returns according to his risk appetite.

In case of death of the Life Assured during this period, only the accumulated fund value will be payable to the nominee.
