6. Manage your investments with Switch and Premium Redirection facility:
Through the feature of switches & premium redirection you can manage your asset
allocation between equity & debt depending on your needs. For example you may wish to
move your money to a low-risk investment fund option before maturity of the Policy to
protect against adverse movements in equity markets.
You can switch four times in a Policy year free of charge, beyond which a charge of
Rs. 100 per switch is levied. The minimum value of a switch should be Rs. 2,500.
You can also redirect your future premiums after first Policy year into different funds with
Premium Redirection facility. This facility can be availed of any number of times free of
charge. The minimum allocation in any chosen investment fund should be 5%.
6

8. 7. Top-up Premiums:
You can invest a bonus received from your employer or profits earned from your business or any other surplus
in your existing investments to achieve your financial goals faster.
With the top-up option, you can boost your contribution any time after the first Policy year. The minimum
amount of a single top-up is Rs. 2,500. The total amount of top-up in a Policy year cannot be more than 25%
of total regular premiums paid till that date. Top-up premium has no effect on your Sum Assured.
8. Liquidity Benefit with Partial Withdrawal:
We all need money during our lifetime to fulfil certain goals. From time to time, you may need money to pay for
your child’s education, going on a long vacation, pay off an existing loan etc.
You can withdraw money from your Policy Fund Value any time after completion of three Policy years. Each
partial withdrawal should be a minimum of Rs. 5,000 and after withdrawal the Policy Fund Value should not be
less than 120% of the Annualised Regular Premium. Four partial withdrawals are free of charge in a Policy year
and each subsequent partial withdrawal will be subject to a charge of Rs. 100.
9. Decrease in Premium:
While we recommend that you pay the agreed amount of annual premium for the entire term of the Policy, we also
understand that sometimes you may face financial constraints which might make it difficult for you to pay the
agreed premium throughout the term. Therefore, in this product, we allow you to decrease the premium amount
any time after completion of two Policy years. Decrease in premium will decrease your Sum Assured in the same
proportion. Annualised Regular Premium can be reduced subject to the following condition:
During 3rd policy year, the Annualised Regular Premium can be reduced such that the revised premium is at
least Higher of
• 75% of first year Annualised Regular Premium
• Minimum Annualized Regular Premium
From 4th policy year onwards, the Annualised Regular Premium can be reduced to the minimum Annualised
Regular Premium.
10. Cover Continuance Option:
While we recommend that all your regular premiums be paid on the respective due dates, we also understand
that due to sudden changes in lifestyle like increased responsibilities or unexpected increase in household
expenses may affect your future ability to pay premiums.
Now you need not worry if you are unable to pay premiums into your Policy. The cover continuance option
entitles you to continue your Policy with all benefits if you are unable to pay premiums (as per the table below).
Once you have opted for this option, you cannot pay any further premiums or top-ups under the Policy.

or part of the commission payable or any rebate of the premium shown on the Policy nor shall any person taking

SECTION 45 OF INSURANCE ACT 1938
“No Policy of life insurance shall after the expiry of two years from the date on which it was effected, be called
in question by an insurer on the ground that statement made in the proposal for insurance or in any report of a
medical officer, or referee, or friend of the insured, or in any other document leading to the issue of the Policy,
was inaccurate or false, unless the insurer shows that such statement was on a material matter or suppressed
facts which it was material to disclose and that it was fraudulently made by the Policyholder and that the
Policyholder knew at the time of making it that the statement was false or that it suppressed facts which it was
material to disclose.
Provided that nothing in this section shall prevent the insurer from calling for proof of age at any time if he is
entitled to do so, and no Policy shall be deemed to be called in question merely because the terms of the Policy

14. Revision of charges:
The Company reserves the right to revise the following charges from time to time, subject to the following
maximum limits, with prior approval from the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA):
Fund Management Charge: Growth Opportunities Fund – 2.50% p.a. of the net assets, Grow Money Fund
– 2.50% p.a. of the net assets, Save‘n’grow Money Fund – 2.00% p.a. of the net assets and Steady Money
Fund – 1.75% p.a. of the net assets.
Policy Administration Charge: Not exceeding (in any Policy year) an amount equal to compounded value
of current charge, at the rate of 5% since August 2008.
Partial Withdrawal Charge: Rs. 300 per partial withdrawal.
Switching Charge: Rs. 300 per switch.
The Company also has the right to revise the asset allocation of any investment fund(s) with prior approval
from IRDA.
Computation of Unit Price
The unit pricing shall be computed based on whether the Company is purchasing (appropriation price)
or selling (expropriation price) the assets in order to meet the day to day transactions of unit
allocations and unit redemptions i.e. the life insurer shall be required to sell / purchase the assets if
unit redemptions / allocations exceed unit allocations/redemptions at the valuation date.
The appropriation price shall apply in a situation when the Company is required to purchase the assets to
allocate the units at the valuation date. This shall be the amount of money that the Company should put into
the fund in respect of each unit it allocates in order to preserve the interests of the existing Policyholders.
The unit price will be computed as follows: Market value of investment held by the fund plus the expenses
incurred in the purchase of the assets plus the value of any current assets plus any accrued income net of
fund management charges less the value of any current liabilities less provisions, if any. This gives the net
asset value of the fund. Dividing by the number of units existing at the valuation date (before any new units
are allocated), gives the unit price of the fund under consideration.
The expropriation price shall apply in a situation when the Company is required to sell assets to redeem the
units at the valuation date. This shall be the amount of money that the Company should take out of the fund
in respect of each unit it cancels in order to preserve the interests of the continuing Policyholders. The unit
price will be computed as follows: Market value of investment held by the fund less the expenses incurred
in the sale of the assets plus the value of any current assets plus any accrued income net of fund
management charges less the value of any current liabilities less provisions, if any. This gives the net asset
value of the fund. Dividing by the number of units existing at the valuation date (before any units are
redeemed), gives the unit price of the fund under consideration.
