Benefits
In case of death of the Life Insured within the policy tenure, the nominee would get 200% of the Sum Assured + accrued simple Reversionary Bonus as Death Benefit and the policy would terminate.
In case of death of the Life Insured during the Extended Life Cover Period of 5 years beyond Maturity, the nominee will get 100% of the sum assured.
If the Life Insured is alive when the Policy Matures, 100% of the Sum Assured + accrued simple Reversionary Bonus is paid as Maturity Benefit. However, the Life Cover of 100% of the Sum Assured continues for another 5 years after the policy maturity.
