This plan has 5 options to choose from. You can choose these options only at the time of purchase. We will understand these options in detail below.

Option 1 - Life Secure
In this option, the policyholder pays the premiums regularly and in case of the death of the policyholder or in case of being diagnosed with a terminal illness at any time during the policy term, the sum assured will be paid in lumpsum to the nominee and the policy stops.

There is no maturity benefit or return of premium at the end of the policy.
Example: Rohit who is 30 years old takes this plan for a 20 years policy term. His premium will be Rs. 7,215 per year for 1 crore cover amount if he is healthy and a non-smoker.
So he has this cover till the age of 50 years. In case of any unfortunate event of death or diagnosis of terminal illness within these 20 years, his nominee will receive Rs. 1 crore and the policy will terminate.

Option 2 - Enhanced Life Secure
In this option, the cover amount increases by 5% every year, to a maximum cover amount of 2 times the base cover amount. The policyholder pays the premiums regularly and in case of the death of the policyholder or in case of being diagnosed with a terminal illness at any time during the policy term, the last increased sum assured will be paid in lumpsum to the nominee and the policy stops.

The premium does not increase every year. There is no maturity benefit or return of premium at the end of the policy.
Example: Rohit who is 30 years old takes this plan for a 20 years policy term. His premium will be Rs. 9,906 per year for 1 crore cover amount if he is healthy and a non-smoker.
His cover amount will increase by 5% of 1 crore every year = Rs. 5 lakhs. Once the cover amount becomes 2 times, that is 2 crore, there will be no more increase and it will stay at 2 crores for the rest of the policy term. So in case of the death of Rohit after the 20th policy year, his nominee will receive Rs. 2 crores in lumpsum and the policy terminates.

Option 3 - LIfe & Income Secure (Level Income Benefit)
This option is good in case the policyholder wants to leave a regular monthly income for the nominee in addition to the lumpsum amount payable on death. In case of the policyholder’s death or in case of being diagnosed with a terminal illness during the policy term, the sum assured will be paid as lumpsum and a monthly income of 0.5% of the sum assured will be paid every month for the next 10 years.
Example: Rohit who is 30 years old takes this plan for a 20 years policy term. His premium will be Rs. 10,091 per year for 1 crore cover amount if he is healthy and a non-smoker.
So in case of the death of Rohit after the 20th policy year, his nominee will receive Rs. 1 crore in lumpsum. Additionally, his nominee will receive 0.5% of 1 crore, that is Rs. 50,000, every month for the next 10 years.

Option 4 - LIfe & Income Secure (Increasing Income Benefit)
This option is good in case the policyholder wants to leave a regular monthly income for the nominee in addition to the lumpsum amount payable on death. In case of the policyholder’s death or in case of being diagnosed with a terminal illness during the policy term, the sum assured will be paid as lumpsum and a monthly income of 0.5% of the sum assured will be paid every month for the next 10 years. The monthly income increases at a simple interest rate of 10% every year.
Example: Rohit who is 30 years old takes this plan for a 20 years policy term. His premium will be Rs. 11,310 per year for 1 crore cover amount if he is healthy and a non-smoker.
So in case of the death of Rohit after the 20th policy year, his nominee will receive Rs. 1 crore in lumpsum. Additionally, his nominee will receive 0.5% of 1 crore, that is Rs. 50,000 every month in the first year. Then the monthly income will increase by Rs. 5,000 every. The monthly income will be paid for 10 years.

Option 5 - Whole Life Cover
This is a whole life cover, which means the cover continues for the entire life of the policyholder  or in case of being diagnosed with a terminal illness. The premiums need to be paid only till the age of 65 years and the cover continues for the rest of his life.
Example: Rohit who is 30 years old takes this whole life plan.There is no specific policy term. His premium will be Rs. 54,527 per year for 1 crore cover amount if he is healthy and a non-smoker. He needs to pay the premiums till the age of 65 years.
So in case of the death of Rohit at any point of time, his nominee will receive Rs. 1 crore in lumpsum. He has to pay premiums till the age of 65 years.
