FAQs
Can I change my annual limit during the term of the plan?
You can increase or decrease your annual limit at every policy anniversary with
deduction of appropriate insurance charges based on change in annual limit. Any
increase in the annual limit will be subject to underwriting an as per terms and
condition set by the company.

Can I change my premium during the term of the plan?
You can increase or decrease your premium at every policy anniversary, any
decrease in premium will be subject to the minimum premium grid based on
annual limit , age and number of members in the family.

What if I am unable to pay my premiums after the first 3 years?
If premium is discontinued in the first three policy years and if the policy is not
revived within the period of two years from the due date of the first unpaid
premium, then the policy will be terminated. During this period, Hospitalisation
Insurance Benefit will cease and the policyholder will only have the benefit of
investment in the respective unit funds.
V1

FAQs
What if I am unable to pay my premiums after the first five years?
On payment of at least first five years premium, you have the option of opting for a
cover continuance option wherein your further charges would be deducted from
your fund until fund value falls below 110% after which the policy would be
foreclosed.

What happens if my fund value falls below 110%?
If premiums have been paid for three full policy years and after three policy years
have elapsed and fund value falls below 110% of one full years premium, the
policyholder will be given intimation and option to reduce the Health Savings
Benefit claim amount so that the fund value does not fall below 110%. If the
policyholder does not opt to reduce the Health Savings Benefit claim then, the
benefit shall be paid and the policy will be foreclosed.
