FAQs
If the policy holder stops paying the premium, the insurance cover will cease and the policy is converted to a Paid Up Policy. The policy can however be revived within 12 months from the date of first unpaid Premium. If the policy is still not revived with 12 months, then the Surrender Value will be paid on the first working day of the fourth policy year.
If the policy holder stops paying the premium after 3 years, then also the policy has 12 months of time for revival. If the policy is still not revived with 12 months, then the Surrender Value will be paid and the policy would be terminated.
If the policy holder wants to surrender the policy before completing 3 years, then the Surrender Value will be paid only after completion of 3 years. There is a 2% charge in the 4th and the 5th year. There is no charge levied for surrender after completion of 5 policy years.
