How it works

In this plan, premium needs to be paid till the end of the policy tenure, i.e. for the entire period of 10 years. This policy accrues Simple Reversionary Bonus compounded annually. When the policy matures, the basic Sum Assured + the Reversionary Bonus would be paid to the Life Insured as Maturity Benefit. Interim or Terminal Bonus may also be paid.

However, if the Life Insured meets with an unfortunate death within the first Policy Year, then 80% of the premium would be paid to the nominee as Death Benefit and the policy would be terminated. However, if the Life Insured dies after the first Policy Year but within the Policy Tenure, all premiums paid till date would be returned as Death Benefit along with Compound Interest calculated at 6% per annum.
