How it works

tab-how-it-works-header-icon
  • The policyholder decides on the premiums he wants to pay and the fund in which the premiums are to be invested.
  • The Sum Assured would be expressed as a multiple of the annual premium paid and the multiple would depend on the policy tenure and age of the policyholder.
  • There are 7 fund options to choose from which are:
    • Balanced Fund II
    • Bond Fund II
    • Enhancer Fund II
    • Growth Fund II
    • Infrastructure Fund
    • Protector Fund II
    • PSU Fund
  • If the policyholder dies during the tenure of the plan the death benefit is paid.
  • If the plan attains maturity, the maturity benefit is paid.
  • Let's Understand The Plan With An Example:

    You can use this money to pay off your outstanding liabilities.

    Please note:
    Minimum Annual premium is Rs.50,000. The value with assumed rates of returns @4% and 8% p.a. are not guaranteed and they are not the upper or lower limits of returns of the Funds selected by the policyholder and that the performance of the funds is dependent on a number of factors including future investment performance.
