Accidental Death and Disability Benefit Rider can be added by the policyholder as an option. For this, the policyholder has to pay the extra cost along with the usual premium.

Product Specification

Death Benefit: Upon the death of the policyholder, this benefit is provided.

• Before the date of commencement of risk: In this case, the single premium is refunded to the nominee without giving any interest on the amount. This final premium amount does not include any extra amount or taxes.
• After the date of Commencement of risk: In this case, Sum Assured on death is decided based on the single tabular premium. It is 10 times of the premiums. The premium paid during the decided tenure does not include any extra tax.

If all the regular premiums for the decided term are paid with no balance premium, the Death benefit is calculated by adding following amounts: Death Benefit=Sum Assured on death + Vested simple Reversionary Bonus + Final
