Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is there a waiting period for the death benefit?
No. The death benefit is payable immediately upon claim approval, irrespective of the policys age, provided the claim is not due to suicide within the first 12 months.

The policy includes a grace period of 30 days. If the premium remains unpaid after the grace period, the policy lapses, but you can reinstate it by paying the due premiums with interest and providing a medical certificate.
4. Does the plan cover accidental death?
Accidental death is covered under the base plan, and you can enhance the cover by adding the Accidental Death Rider, which provides an additional lumpsum payout.
