Plan Coverage - What the Exide Life Jeevan Uday Plan covers?

This is how Exide Life Jeevan Uday Plan works:

Choose the policy term, PPT, and premium amount. The sum assured and maturity benefit will be determined based on the above mentioned parameters and your age. Fill up the application form for Exide Life Jeevan Uday Plan. Enjoy the following benefits under this policy:

• Maturity benefit: It is a combination of sum assured plus bonus earned during the policy term plus terminal bonus, if any.
  • Sum assured on maturity: This amount is guaranteed to you policy commencement.
  • Bonus: Your policy earns an annual bonus each year which will be paid on policy maturity.
  • Terminal Bonus: A terminal bonus will be declared after completion of 10 policy years which will be paid on policy maturity.
• Life Cover: It equals sum assured on death plus reversionary bonus plus terminal bonus, if any. Sum assured on death is higher of sum assured on maturity or multiple of annualised premium minus Service Tax and extra premiums. If your entry age is below 45 years, the sum assured is 10 times the annualised premium. If your entry age is above 45 years, the sum assured is 7 times the annualised premium. Life Cover is never less than 105% of total premiums paid excluding Service Tax and extra premiums paid.
• Extended Life Cover: Usually the policy lapses if you fail to pay the premium within the grace period. However, under this plan, you will receive full life cover for 1 year from the date of the first unpaid premium payment date, provided minimum 1 full year's premium has been paid.

Other Key Features – Freelook Period, Surrender Values, Grace Period etc.

Following are other key features of Exide Life Jeevan Uday Plan:

• Free look period: From the date of receipt of the policy document, you are given 15 days to review the terms and conditions of the policy. If you have any objection to the terms and conditions, you have the option to return the policy. You will receive refund of the premium paid after certain deductions. The Free Look Period is 30 days for policies that are purchased through Distance Marketing.
• Grace period: If you have failed to pay the premium on the due date, Exide Life Insurance offers you a grace period of 30 days to pay the premium due without interest. If the premium is not paid within the grace period, your policy will lapse.
• Policy Lapse: If you have failed to pay the premium within the grace period, your policy will lapse and all benefits under this policy will cease until it is reinstated or revived. If at the least 1 full year’s premium is paid and less than 3 full years’ premiums are paid then you will receive life cover which is equal to Surrender Value. A lapsed policy will not be a participant of the participatory fund.
• Reduced Paid-Up: If minimum 3 full years’ premiums have been paid and further premiums are unpaid, the policy will attain Reduced Paid-Up status, provided the policy hasn’t been surrendered. This status will remain until the policy is revived or reinstated. During the Reduced Paid-Up status, the life cover will decrease. Once the Reduced Paid-Up benefit is paid, the policy will cease.
• Policy Reinstatement: Once the policy lapses due to non-payment of premium, you have the option to revive it within 2 years from the date of first unpaid premium. You are required to:
  • Submit a written request for policy reinstatement within 2 years from the date of the unpaid premium.
  • Provide proof of insurability.
  • Pay all premium dues along with the applicable reinstatement charge till the date of reinstatement.
• Surrender Benefit: The policy can be surrendered after 1 full year’s premiums are paid. The benefits will be paid immediately or after the 2nd policy year, whichever is later. The surrender benefit is higher of the Guaranteed Surrender Value or Special Surrender Value after loan deductions, if any. Once the surrender benefit is paid, the policy ceases. If minimum 1 full year’s premiums are paid, the policy acquires GSV. If minimum 3 full years’ premiums are paid, the policy acquired SSV.
• Loan: The life assured can apply for a loan under this plan after paying 3 full years’ premiums and acquiring Special Surrender Value. The loan amount shall not be above 90% of the SSV.
