How it works
In this plan, premium needs to be paid till the end of the Policy Tenure of 15 or 20 years as chosen at policy inception.
In this Plan, on survival of the Life Insured, a pre-defined percentage of the Sum Assured is paid as Survival Benefit at the end of every 5 policy years which depends on the Policy Tenure. For a 15 year policy, 25% of the Sum Assured is paid at the end of 5th and 10th Policy Year as Survival Benefit and for a 20 year policy, 20% of the Sum Assured is paid at the end of the 5th, 10th and 15th Policy Year as Survival Benefit.
On survival till the end of the Policy Tenure, the remaining amount, i.e. 50% for a 15 years policy and 40% for a 20 years policy is paid to the policyholder as Maturity Benefit and the policy terminates.
However, if the Life Insured dies within the policy tenure, the entire Sum Assured along with the vested Bonus is paid as Death Benefit irrespective of the Survival Benefit already paid and the policy terminates.
There is an additional rider of Accidental Death Benefit.
