LIC Endowment Plus Plans Info : Endowment Plus
There are four funds for policyholders to choose from, namely:
- Bond Fund.
- Secured Fund.
- Balance Fund.
- Growth Fund.
Policyholders will also be able to switch between these funds, free of charge, up to 4 times in a policy year. The NAV under all the funds during the launch is Rs.10, and the NAV will be calculated daily, based on investment performance and fund management change of each fund type.
This maiden ULIP will also offer a double death benefit – in the event of the policyholder’s unfortunate demise before the commencement of risk, an amount that’s equal to his fund value will be payable. If the policyholder dies after the commencement of risk, an amount that’s the higher of either the sum assured or the fund value will be payable.
An accidental death benefit rider is also automatically active on this policy, which pays out an amount equal to the death benefit sum assured if the policyholder dies due to an accident. An option for partial withdrawal also exists in addition to the above features.
