Introduction
Insurance Regulatory & Development Authority (IRDA) requires all life insurance companies operating in India to provide official illustrations to their customers. The illustrations are based on the investment rates of return set by the Life Insurance Council (constituted under Section 64C(a) of the Insurance Act 1938) and is not intended to reflect the actual investment returns achieved or may be achieved in future by Life Insurance Corporation of India (LICI).

For the year 2004-05 the two rates of investment return declared by the Life Insurance Council are 6% and 10% per annum.

Product summary

Premiums :
Premiums are payable yearly, half-yearly, quarterly or monthly, as opted by you, throughout the premium paying term or till earlier death.

Guaranteed Additions:

Simple Reversionary Bonuses will be declared per thousand Sum Assured annually at the end of each financial year. Once declared, they will form part of the guaranteed benefits of the policy.

Death Benefit :

Surrender Value :
Buying a life insurance contract is a long-term commitment. However, surrender value is available on the plan on earlier termination of the contract.

Guaranteed Surrender Value :
The policy may be surrendered for cash after more than one year’s premium have been paid. The guaranteed surrender value will be 30% of the total amount of premiums paid excluding the first year’s premium and the extra premiums, if any.

Corporation’s policy on surrenders :
In practice, the Corporation will pay a Special Surrender Value – which is available after completion of at least 3 years from the date of commencement of your policy. The benefit payable on surrender reflects the discounted value of the reduced claim amount that would be payable on death or 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 especially 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.

Statutory warning
“Some benefits are guaranteed and some benefits are variable with returns based on the future performance of your insurer carrying on life insurance business. If your policy offers guaranteed returns then these will be clearly marked “guaranteed” in the illustration table on this page. If your policy offers variable returns then the illustrations on this page will show two different rates of assumed future investment returns. These assumed rates of return are not guaranteed and they are not upper or lower limits of what you might get back as the value of your policy is dependent on a number of factors including future investment performance.”
