    • He/she then selects the sum assured.
    • The premium payment frequency and policy term are determined by the customer.
    • The premium under the policy is dependent on the sum assured chosen, age of the life assured, premium payment frequency, and policy term.

    The salient features of the Bajaj Allianz iSecure More Plan are described below:

    Flexibilities
    1. The customer can choose to take an individual plan or a joint life cover.
      1. If the customer is married at the time of inception of the policy, he/she can choose to include the spouse.
      2. If the customer wishes to include his/her spouse after marriage, this can be done according to applicable terms and conditions.
      3. In the case of a joint life policy, if the marriage was annulled, the insurance company should be notified of the same immediately. Following the notification, the second life will be excluded from the policy cover.
    2. The customer may change the premium payment frequency at any policy anniversary. This is dependent on the minimum premium limits under the policy.
    3. The nominee of the life assured may take the death benefit in the form of monthly installments, over a period of 5 or 10 years from the date of death. The insurer has to be notified on this at the time of submitting the death claim. Each monthly installment will be equal to:
      1. For 5 years - 1.04*(death benefit)/60
      2. For 10 years - 1.08 * (death benefit)/120
    4. The nominee can choose to stop receiving the monthly installments. In this case, he/she will be eligible to receive the remaining part of the death benefit as a lump sum amount.
    Discontinuance of premium If the life assured does not pay due premiums before the grace period, the life cover will cease. Also, the death benefit or paid-up value will not be payable. The policyholder can choose to revive the policy within 2 years from the due date of the unpaid premium. This is, however, subject to revival conditions.
    Termination of Policy The policy will terminate on fulfillment of either of the conditions mentioned below:
    • Surrender of the policy
    • Expiry of the revival period
    • At the death of the life assured in an individual policy or the second death in a joint cover
    • On the date of policy maturity
    Free-look period If the customer is not satisfied with the terms and conditions mentioned in the policy documentation, he/she can choose to return the policy back to Bajaj Allianz within 15 days. This interval is referred to as the free-look period. For policies that were purchased through distance marketing, the free-look period is 30 days. The customer is required to cite the reasons for return of the policy. The insurer will then reimburse all the paid premiums minus the expenses incurred by the company on medical checkups and stamp duty.
    Grace Period If the policyholder fails to pay premiums by the due date, a grace period of 30 days is allowed for policies with premium payment frequencies other than monthly. For policies with monthly premium payment frequency, the grace period is 15 days. If the policyholder faces death during the grace period, the death benefit will be paid out, i.e., the entire sum assured minus outstanding premiums.

    • The revival application is submitted within 2 years from the date of the unpaid premium and before the policy maturity date.
