Key Features

key-feature-header-icon
This is a Unit Linked Plan where premiums can be paid either for the entire plan tenure through Regular Premiums or for a limited tenure through Limited Premiums.

 

 

 

 

A very low premium allocation charge is deducted from the premiums paid so that the policyholder can enjoy maximum wealth creation.
The policyholder can choose any combination of the policy term and the premium payment term.
There are two portfolio strategies to choose from based on the risk profile of the policyholder. 

Benefits

Maturity Benefit

On maturity, the regular premium Fund Value and any top-up premium Fund Value is paid to the policyholder. The policyholder, if wishes, can also avail the maturity benefit in instalments over a period of 5 years post the date of maturity under the Settlement Option. 

Death Benefit

If the insured dies when the plan is in-force, higher of the following would be paid as the death benefit:

  • Sum Assured including any top-up premium Sum Assured
  • Fund Value as on the date of death including any top-up premium Fund Value
    The death benefit should be a minimum of 105% of the total premiums paid till death.
    If the policyholder is below 60 years of age when he dies, the Sum Assured would be net of partial withdrawals made in the last 2 years preceding death.
    If the policyholder is 60 years and above as on the date of death, partial withdrawals made after attaining 58 years of age would be deducted from the Sum Assured.
Bonus

How it works

tab-how-it-works-header-icon
  • The policyholder decides on the amount of premium he wants to pay, the policy term, the premium paying term and the premium paying frequency.
  • The premium paid, net of the applicable allocation charge is invested in the funds as per the chosen strategy. 
  • There are two strategies of investment – Investor Selectable Portfolio Strategy and Wheel of Life Portfolio Strategy. 
  • In the Investor Selectable Portfolio Strategy, the net premium is invested in a choice of 7 funds. The funds are:
    • Equity Growth Fund II
    • Accelerator Mid-Cap Fund II
    • Pure Stock Fund 
    • Asset Allocation Fund II
    • Bluechip Equity Fund 
    • Bond Fund 
    • Liquid Fund
  • Under the Wheel of Life Strategy, the investment is guided by years to maturity. Initially, the net premium is invested in a predefined ratio in all the five funds except Bond and Liquid Fund. As the plan nears maturity, the funds are redirected to Bond and Liquid Fund to guarantee safety of the returns generated. 
  • This strategy protects the returns from market volatility as the plan approaches maturity.
  • If the policyholder wants, he can change the premium paying term subject to certain terms and conditions.
  • The portfolio investment strategy can also be changed any time during the plan tenure.
  • The Sum Assured can also be decreased any time during the tenure.
  • 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.

Surrendering the policy
  • Within the first 5 policy years

The policy has a 5 year lock-in period. If the policy is surrendered within the first 5 years, the regular premium Fund Value and any top-up premium Fund Value would be transferred to the Discontinuance Policy Fund after deducting the Discontinuation charges. The life cover would cease to apply. The money would remain in the Discontinuance Policy Fund till the completion of 5 years and the Fund Management charges would be deducted as and when applicable. If the policyholder dies during this period, the Fund Value as on the date of death would be paid. Otherwise, after the completion of the lock-in period of 5 years, the available Fund Value would be paid
 

  • After 5 years

If the plan is surrendered any time after the completion of 5 years, the available regular premium Fund Value and any top-up premium Fund Value would be paid without deduction of any charges.
 

  • Making the policy paid-up

Paid-up facility is available only if the first 5 years’ premiums have been paid. The benefits payable are reduced if the policy becomes a paid-up policy.

Revival

Revival is allowed within 2 years from the date of the first unpaid premium. The policyholder would be required to pay the outstanding premium and any interest charged by the insurer to revive his policy. 

Foreclosure 

If the policyholder discontinues his premiums after the completion of first 5 policy years and the available balance in the Fund Value and any top-up premium Fund Value is insufficient to meet one month’s charges applicable under the policy, the policy would be foreclosed. The remaining Surrender Value of the policy would be paid on such foreclosure.
