    BSLI Protect@Ease Plan provides the following 2 plan options to customers:

    • Level Term Assurance – Here, the Sum Assured stays constant throughout the policy term.
    • Increasing Term Assurance – Here, as the responsibilities in life and income increases, a policyholder’s Sum Assured also increases. If this option is selected, then policyholders can choose to increase the Sum Assured by 5% or 10% at the start of the policy. Then, every year, the Sum Assured will increase by the selected percentage of the original Sum Assured. The premium amount will not increase.

    BSLI Protect@Ease Plan offers the following benefits:

    Particulars Details
    Death Benefit If the life insured dies during the policy term, then the company will pay the death benefit to his/her nominee. Death benefit = Sum Assured on death – any Terminal Illness Benefit paid earlier. Sum Assured on death for Limited Pay/Regular Pay is the highest of the following:
    • 105% of all premiums paid on date of death.
    • 10 times of the annualised premium for all the ages.
    • Absolute amount assured payable on death.
    • Minimum Guaranteed Sum Assured (GSV) on maturity.
    Sum Assured on death for Single Premium is the highest of the following:
    • Minimum GSV on maturity.
    • 125% of the single premium for all the ages.
    • Absolute amount assured payable on death.
    The minimum GSV is nil. The absolute amount assured payable on death is the Effective Sum Assured on death date. In case of Level Term Assurance, the Effective Sum Assured is the Sum Assured at the start of the policy. Here, the Effective Sum Assured will include changes in the Sum Assured which is made because of usage of the Enhanced Life Stage Protection option. In case of Increasing Team Assurance, the Effective Sum Assured is the Sum Assured at the start of the policy, which increases every year by the percentage selected by the policyholder. Nominees can take the benefit in one of the following ways:
    • Lump sum payment
    • Part payments with fixed annual income. Here, the death benefit will be paid in the following manner:
      • 1-time payout of 20% of the benefit will be paid during claim settlement plus;
      • Remaining benefit will be paid as annual income, which will be a fixed percentage of the benefit. It will be paid on the death anniversary of the insured for the selected payout term. If payout term is 10 years, then 11% of the death benefit will be paid and if payout term is 15 years, then 8.37% of the benefit will be paid;
    • Part payments with an increasing annual income at 5% p.a. Here, the benefit will be paid in the following manner:
      • 1-time payout of 20% of the benefit will be paid during claim settlement plus;
      • Remaining benefit will be paid as annual income, which will be a fixed percentage of the benefit during claim settlement and will increase at 5% p.a. on the insured’s death anniversary every year for the selected payout term. If payout term is 10 years, then 9.16% of the death benefit will be paid and if payout term is 15 years, then 6.47% of the benefit will be paid.
    If a nominee decides to get the lump sum amount after selecting one of the part payment option, then he/she will get a discounted value of the outstanding annual income as lump sum, provided the terms and conditions of the policy is met. The discounted value will be computed using 6.25% p.a. as the interest rate. If the insured is suffering from Terminal Illness, then 50% of the Sum Assured on death will be paid to him/her immediately (Maximum – Rs.2.5 crore). In case of death after this payment is made, the nominee will receive the Sum Assured on Death minus the Terminal Illness Benefit. This benefit will be paid on the first diagnosis only. Once the death benefit is paid, the policy will cease.
    Joint Life Protection This option allows policyholders to protect 2 lives i.e. themselves and their spouse. The Sum Assured for the 2nd life is equal to 50% of the Sum Assured that is applicable to the 1st life. This option is available only for policies where the primary life insured has a Sum Assured of Rs.6,000,000 and above. Policyholders can select this option at the start of the plan, post which it will not change. No riders can be added under this option. If the primary insured dies before the secondary insured, then the company will pay the Sum Assured on death for the primary insured. The life cover for the 2nd life will continue and future premiums (if any) will be waived off. Then, in case of the death of secondary insured before maturity, the Sum Assured will be paid to the nominee. The policy will stop once the benefit has been paid. If the secondary insured dies before the primary insured, then the company will pay the Sum Assured for the secondary life insured. From the next anniversary of the policy, then future premium will reduce to the premium that the primary insured would have had to pay in case he/she did not select this option. Then, in case of death of the primary insured before maturity, the Sum Assured will be paid to the nominee and the policy will cease. If both the insured die simultaneously, then the sum assured for both will be paid to the nominee and the policy will terminate.
    Enhanced Life Stage Protection This option allows policyholders to increase the protection in case of certain life events without having to go through another medical check-up. This option is only available under Level Term Assurance, regular pay and standard life at the start of the policy. The age of the policyholder should be a maximum of 50 years. This option is not available if Joint Life Protection is selected. The future premiums will increase in proportion of the increase in Sum Assured to Sum Assured at the start of the policy. It will reflect in the policy from the next policy anniversary.
    Life Event Enhanced Life Stage Protection (percentage of Sum Assured at the start of the policy)
    1st marriage 50% (maximum Rs.5,000,000)
    Birth of the 1st child 25% (maximum Rs.2,500,000)
    Birth of the 2nd child 25% (maximum Rs.2,500,000)
    Policyholders have an option to reduce the Sum Assured in the future to the extent it was increased under this option. The decrease will come in effect from the policy anniversary that occurs immediately after the notification date. The premium will also reduce.
    Reduced Paid-up Available for Limited Pay policies. If policyholders stop the payment of their premiums after paying it for a minimum of 3 policy years, then their policy will not lapse, instead it will convert into Reduced Paid-up. Under this, the Sum Assured on death will be decrease in proportion to the premiums that have been paid to the premiums that are payable during the premium paying term. In case of Increasing Term Assurance, the escalation will apply. The Reduced Paid-up Sum Assured and Reduced Paid-up Sum Assured on death will increase every policy year by the Sum Assured at the start of the policy multiplied by the Sum Assured escalation rate multiplied by the proportion to instalments actually paid to the total premium instalment payable during the term.
