LIC’s Jeevan Saathi Plus (ULIP Plan)

Jeevan Saathi Plus Summary: (Table No.197)

LIC Jeevan Saathi Plus plan no. 197 is a unit-linked plan (ULIP) wherein a couple can take the insurance cover on their lives under a single policy. The proposer under the plan shall be called Principal Life Assured (P.L.A.) and the other life (wife/husband) shall be called Spouse Life Assured (S.L.A.). The premiums can be paid either in a lump sum (single premium) or regularly throughout the policy term. The P.L.A. can choose the level of cover (Sum Assured) for both lives within the limits, which will depend on whether the policy is a Single premium or Regular premium contract, age and the amount of premium agreed to pay. For regular premium policies, in case of death of the P.L.A. during the term of the policy, the plan also provides for waiver of all future premiums including outstanding premiums, if any, provided life cover is in force.

Features:

Switching of funds:
The policyholder (SLA) can switch between any fund types during the policy term. On switching the entire amount is switched to the Fund opted for. Within a given policy year, 4 switches will be allowed free of charge. Subsequent switches shall be subject to a switching charge of Rs.100 per switch.

Partial Withdrawals:
P.L.A. may encash the units partially after the third policy anniversary subject to certain conditions.

Top-Up Premium: (Additional Premium)
P.L.A. can pay a Top-up premium in multiples of Rs.1,000/- at any time during the term of the policy without increasing the sum assured.

Payment of Premiums:
P.L.A. may pay premiums regularly at yearly, half-yearly, quarterly, or monthly (ECS) intervals over the term of the policy. The minimum annualized premium (other than monthly through ECS) will be Rs.10,000/- increasing thereafter in multiples of Rs.1,000/-. The minimum monthly (ECS) premium will be Rs. 1000/- increasing thereafter in multiples of Rs. 250/-.
