YOUR PREMIUMS
Your financial advisor will provide you with the annual policy premium specific to the plan you are considering. The annual policy premium is based on: the Guaranteed Maturity Benefit and Option you choose the Enhanced Sum Assured you desire the plan term and your gender and age at entry; and the premium associated with any riders you add You can also increase your savings at any time by paying additional amounts over and above the policy premium - this is known as top-up premiums. Each top-up premium must be Rs. 500 or more provided your total top-up premiums to date does not exceed 25% of your total policy premiums to date. We do accept top-up premiums in excess of 25% of your total policy premiums to date, but in this case, the minimum top-up premium is Rs. 5,000 and your Enhanced Sum Assured will be increased by 125% of the excess of your top-up premiums over 25% of policy premiums to date, subject to evidence of insurability satisfactory to us.
100% of your policy premiums when received; and 98% of your top-up premiums when received we retain 2% of your top-up premium as a Premium Allocation Charge For added flexibility, you can at any time: use our premium redirection facility and change your Premium Allocation Percentage applicable to future policy premiums and top-up premiums; and switch part or all of your allocated units in one investment fund to another at the then prevailing unit prices

YOUR BENEFITS
In the unfortunate event of your demise In the unfortunate event of your demise, your nominee will receive the Basic Sum Assured plus the Enhanced Sum Assured plus the greater of Fund Value and Guaranteed Fund Value.
The Basic Sum Assured is associated with the Guaranteed Maturity Benefit you choose. Your financial advisor will provide you with the Basic Sum Assured specific to the plan you are considering. Based on your insurance needs, you can increase the amount of protection via the Enhanced Sum Assured. You can specify the Enhanced Sum Assured at entry and/or increase it at any time during your lifetime. The minimum Enhanced Sum Assured increment is Rs. 50,000 and is subject to evidence of insurability satisfactory to us. Your annual policy premium will be increased if and when the Enhanced Sum Assured is increased. Your Guaranteed Maturity Benefit The minimum Guaranteed Maturity Benefit is payable on the maturity date of your policy. This assumes however that you paid all policy premiums when due. Otherwise, the Guaranteed Maturity Benefit when due will be limited to the Guaranteed Fund Value at that time. By choosing the 100% Guaranteed Maturity Option, we will pay the higher of the Fund Value or Guaranteed Fund Value on the maturity date of your policy and end the contract. Double or Triple the Guaranteed Maturity Benefit By choosing the 200% or 300% Guaranteed Maturity Option, your contract will continue under a settlement option for a period of 5 years starting on the maturity date of the policy. During the settlement option period, we will not levy any policy charges except for the Fund Management Charge. Also, all riders will cease and no life insurance cover is provided. At any time during the settlement option period, you can cancel the contract and we will pay the higher of the Fund Value or Guaranteed Fund Value at that time. At the start of the settlement option period and at the end of each year thereafter, the Guaranteed Fund Value will be reduced by: Date at maturity year-end 1 year-end 2 year-end 3 year-end 4 year-end 5 Total 200% Option 100% 20% 20% 20% 20% 20% 200% 300% Option 100% 25% 25% 25% 25% 100% 300%
As a percentage of the Guaranteed Maturity Benefit. The Guaranteed Fund Value will never be reduced below nil.
Partial withdrawals not exceeding the excess of the Fund Value over the Guaranteed Fund Value can be made at any time during the settlement option period. You are therefore given the choice to en-cash the guaranteed maturity benefits when due or leave them invested in the investment funds until the end of the settlement option period. At the end of the 5-year settlement option period, we will terminate the contract and pay the higher of the Fund Value or Guaranteed Fund Value.
The charges under this plan are designed to optimize the long-term return on your investment while providing for the costs of insurance, distribution and administration of your policy. Premium Allocation Charge No premium allocation charge is deducted from your policy premium so all of your policy premium will be invested in the investment funds of your choice. For top-up premiums, we will first deduct a 2% premium allocation charge and then invest the remaining 98% in the investment funds of your choice. Fund Management Charge The daily unit price of each investment fund is adjusted to reflect the fund management charge. Currently the charge is 1.00% per annum for Protector, Builder and 1.25% per annum for Enhancer, but we may increase this charge in any time in the future subject to a maximum of 1.50% per annum. Policy Administration Charge The policy administration charge will be deducted monthly by canceling units proportionately from each investment fund you have at that time. The annual rate per 1000 of Basic Sum Assured is shown in Schedule B. We may increase this charge at any time after the 4th policy year, subject to a maximum increase of 5% per annum since inception. Surrender Charge The surrender charge is applied if and when you surrender your policy in the first 3 policy years. The amount you will receive will be the fund value less this charge. The rate per 1000 of Basic Sum Assured is shown in Schedule B. Revival Charge The current charge for policy revival is Rs. 100. We may increase this charge at any time in the future subject to a maximum of Rs. 1,000. Other Policy Charges Your can make two fund switches, two partial withdrawals and two premium redirections free of charge per policy year. A charge of Rs. 100 will be levied per additional request, and we may increase this charge at any time in the future subject to a maximum of Rs. 500 per additional request. Mortality Charge Every month we will deduct a mortality charge for providing you with the death cover. We will take these charges by canceling units proportionately from each of the investment funds at that time. The annual rate for each of this charge will depend on the plan term as well as the age and gender of the life insured. Sample rates are provided in Schedule C for your reference. Please visit our website or ask your financial advisor for the rates applicable to you.
Rider Premium Charge A rider premium charge will be recovered monthly by canceling units proportionately from each of the investment funds you have at that time. The rider premium charge will be exactly equal to the rider premium payable on a monthly basis. Rider premiums paid less frequently than monthly will be subject to the market risks associated with the investment funds you have chosen. IRDA Approval Only when specified and within stated limits, we may increase a particular charge at any time in the future. We, however, need to get prior approval from the IRDA before such charge increase is effective. Otherwise, all other charges in this policy are guaranteed to never increase during the tenure of the policy.

After three completed policy years - If we do not receive the entire policy premium by the end of the grace period, then you will be given a period of two years (starting on the due date of the unpaid policy premium) to pay all outstanding premiums till date. Your policy will continue during these two years, as well as all insurance benefits and charges. At the end of this two-year period, we will give you the choice to either surrender your policy or continue it without the payment of additional policy premiums. Your policy will, however, be deemed as surrendered should your Fund Value fall below one annual policy premium.
EXAMPLE
You can choose the guaranteed maturity value and option required to secure your future based on your financial requirements. For example, you may require an amount of Rs. 6 lacs for your son/daughter's admission/education in the desired medical college at your age of 45 yrs. Therefore, the guaranteed maturity value would be Rs. 6 lacs. The Dream plan will make this possible for you by letting you know the premiums and the tenure for which you have to pay the premiums to achieve your maturity amount.
