Death Benefit | A lump sum equal to the sum assured is payable in case a member of the policy dies. |
In case a member enrolled under the policy commits suicide within 12 months from the date of receipt of the policy or from the date of entry into the plan, whichever is later, only 80% of the premium is payable to the beneficiary. This exclusion is not applicable to employer-employee groups since participation is mandatory.
Profit sharing | A certain amount of profit is shared with the members of the policy. The profit is calculated based on the premiums paid after deductions of any claims made or expenses incurred. |

Revival of Policy | The policy can be revived within 3 months after the policy has lapsed. Previously unpaid premiums along with an interest, that is compounded yearly, should be paid in order to revive the policy. |

Cooling off Period | The policyholder has the first 15 days of the policy term to review the policy. He/she can return the policy if he/she is unsatisfied with the terms of the policy. The insurer will then refund the premiums paid after the deduction of stamp duty and other charges. |
