Star Union Dai-ichi Life Premier Protection Plan

Objective

This term insurance policy aims to protect family members from financial distress in the event of death of the insured member.

What does it do?

This plan pays sum assured to the nominee in case of unfortunate demise of the life insured. The policy does not offer anything on survival.
Single premium policyholders, in case of an emergency, may surrender the policy after 1 year. The surrender value will be calculated according to the predefined formula.
Regular premium policies can avail accidental death and total and permanent disability rider. The rider pays an additional amount equal to rider sum assured in case of death due to an accident, or ten half-yearly installments, each equal to 10 per cent of the rider sum assured in the event of total and permanent disability.

Pros

The plan offers accidental death and total and permanent disability rider to enhance coverage.
A lapsed policy can be revived within 3 years.
Single premium policies can be surrendered in case of need.

Suited for

Anyone looking for a cover higher than Rs 25 lakhs can take this policy.

Our View

This is an expensive policy. Before buying any policy evaluate your needs and select regular premium payment option over single premium payment. The reason we say this is because in case something goes wrong in early years of the policy, you have already paid a huge chunk of amount as premium to the insurance company.

Other Features

Free Look Cancellation

In case, you are not satisfied, you may choose to cancel the policy within 15 days of receiving the policy documents. Upon such cancellation, you will be paid back the premiums, minus the cost of stamp duty, medical reports and proportionate premium for the period for which the risk was covered.

Grace Period

You are allowed to pay premiums within 30 days from due date for annual, semi-annual and quarterly premiums and within 15 days in case of monthly premium. If a due premium is not received within the grace period of 30 days, your policy will lapse and the life insurance cover, including the rider cover, if any, will be terminated.

Lapsed Policy Reinstatement

You can reinstate your lapsed policy any time (within 3 years from the due date of the first unpaid premium) by paying all the due premiums and undergoing underwriting requirements, if any.

Tax Benefits

Section 80C, 10 (10D) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 would apply. Premiums paid for SUD Life Accidental Death & Total and Permanent Disability Benefit Rider qualify for deduction under Section 80D of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Exclusions

In case of death by suicide during the first policy year, or within one year from the date of reinstatement, no death benefit is payable. Further, if the Life Assured under the policy, whether medically sane or insane, commits suicide, within one year of exercising the option to increase the Sum Assured, then the amount of increased Sum Assured will not be considered in the calculation of the Death Benefit

Surrender Value

Only Single Premium Policyholders can surrender policy after completion of one policy year. Surrender value will be 60% of Unearned Premium. Unearned Premium is {1-(elapsed duration since date of commencement of policy/ Term of policy)*Single Premium}
