Kotak Life Endowment Insurance Plan is a Traditional Participating Endowment. Thus, it is a non-linked Limited Pay Insurance Plan with Bonus facility.
How it works –In this plan, premiums are paid for the Premium Paying Term as selected at the beginning of the Policy Term. The policy continues beyond the Premium Paying Term till the end of the Policy Term.
