Surrender means closing a policy before its scheduled completion (maturity) date, which often incurs losses and it should be exercised in extreme situation only. Jeevan Labh plan can be surrendered, if a policy has successfully completed 3 policy years (premiums for at least 3 years are paid) which means there will not be any return in the form of surrender value if a policy is surrendered before 3 years.

No, premium waiver facility is not available in Jeevan Labh. For Example, a father (proposer) has taken a policy in the name of his child(Life Assured) and father is paying premium from his income. In case of death of the father, the child has to continue payment of stipulated premium i.e. no premium waiver.

What is term rider. What is the benefit of term rider in Jeevan labh policy. Please clarify.

Wrote :

01-10-2019 09:34:00

Term rider is an additional option available on payment of extra premium. Term rider is like term insurance( pure risk cover) which provides additional death claim amount equal to term rider sum assured other than death claim amount of base plan during policy term of base plan. It does not provide any maturity benefit when policy holder survives policy term.

Wrote :

On Jeevan Labh policy document only Sum Assured is indicated. Bonus is not mentioned on policy bond because bonus rate is declared every year and keep accumulating in this policy, for example, Rs 48 per thousand of sum assured for 2017.
