Premiums:
Premiums are payable yearly, half-yearly, quarterly, monthly or through Salary
deductions, as opted by you, throughout the term of the policy or earlier
death.
Bonuses:
This is a with-profit plan and participates in the profits of the Corporation’s
life insurance business. It gets a share of the profits in the form of
bonuses. Simple Reversionary Bonuses are declared per thousand Sum Assured
annually at the end of each financial year. Once declared, they form part
of the guaranteed benefits of the plan. Such bonuses are to be added till maturity
even if the life assured dies before the maturity date. Final (Additional)
Bonus may also be payable provided a policy is of a certain minimum term.
Death Benefit:
The Sum Assured plus accrued bonuses up to
maturity is payable on maturity even though death occurs during policy term.
This may be paid in a lump sum or in ten half-yearly instalments
at the option of the beneficiary.
Maturity Benefit:
The Sum Assured plus all bonuses declared up to maturity
date is payable on survival to the end of the term either in a lump sum or in
ten half-yearly installments, as opted by you.
Supplementary/Extra Benefits:
These are the optional benefits that can be added to your basic plan for extra
protection/option. An additional premium is required to be paid for these
benefits.
Surrender Value:
Buying a life insurance contract is a long-term commitment. However, surrender
value will be available under the plan on earlier termination of the contract.
Guaranteed Surrender Value:
The policy may be surrendered after it has been in force for 3 years or
more. The guaranteed surrender value is 30% of the basic premiums paid
excluding the first year’s premium.
Corporation’s policy on surrenders:
In practice, the Corporation will pay a Special Surrender Value – which is either
equal to or more than the Guaranteed Surrender Value. The benefit payable on
surrender reflects the discounted value of the reduced claim amount that would
be payable at maturity. This value will depend on the duration for which
premiums have been paid and the policy duration at the date of surrender. In
some circumstances, in case of early termination of the policy, the surrender
value payable may be less than the total premium paid.
The Corporation reviews the surrender value payable under its plans from time
to time depending on the economic environment,
experience and other factors.
