Key Features of Max Life Smart Term Plan:

There are Max Life Smart Term Plan benefits which are described below:-

Choice of 7 Death Benefit Variants:

The option of increasing or reducing the sum assured death benefit payout as monthly income or lump sum, all can be availed as per the flexibility of the insured customer. A detailed description of the death benefit variants are mentioned below:-

• Life Cover: Under the life cover death benefit variant option, in case of death of the policyholder the sum assured chosen by the policyholder at the time of inception of the policy, would be paid to the nominee immediately. The sum assured selected by the insured policyholder would be paid to the beneficiary in case of the death of the policyholder as a lump sum amount.
• Income Protector: Under this plan, a fixed monthly income for pay-out the duration of 10 years, 15 years, and 20 years as chosen by the policyholder at policy inception will be paid to the beneficiary post the date of death of the Life Insured. The monthly income will be paid each month on the policy anniversary date, starting from the next monthly anniversary post the date of the death of the life insured. In simple terms, a monthly income will be paid to the beneficiary of the policyholder, in the event of the death of the policyholder.
• Income Protector + Inflation Protector: Increasing monthly income for pay-out the duration of 10 years, 15 years or 20 years as chosen by the policyholder at policy inception will be paid to the beneficiary on the death of the life insured. The first monthly income shall be equal to that chosen by the policyholder and thereafter the income would increase every year by 10% (simple interest) on the first monthly income payable. The monthly income payable shall be payable each month on the policy anniversary date, starting from the next monthly anniversary post the date of the death of the life insured. In simple words, the beneficiary of the deceased would get increasing monthly income with each passing year. This option enables the beneficiary of the policyholder to fight inflation and helps them maintain the lifestyle by taking inflation into account.
• Life Cover + Income: On the death of the policyholder, a lump sum life cover amount chosen by the policyholder at policy inception will be paid to the beneficiary immediately on the death of the life assured. In addition to the lump sum amount, a level monthly income of 0.4% of the lump sum life cover amount will be paid for 10 years, such that the total of 120 regular monthly incomes will be equal to 48% of the policy sum assured. Under this option, the beneficiary would get a lump sum amount as well as a monthly income for a certain period of time as selected by the policyholder at the time of policy inception. This option helps the beneficiaries to clear the loans or liabilities, if any, with the lump sum amount paid and the monthly income helps the beneficiaries to lead a normal life.
• Life Cover + Increasing Income: On the death of the policyholder, a lump sum life cover amount chosen by the policyholder at policy inception will be paid to the beneficiary immediately on the death of the life assured. In addition to the lump sum amount, an increasing monthly income will be paid for 10 years, wherein the first year's monthly income shall be equal to 0.4% of the lump sum life cover amount. The income will increase every year by 10% per annum (simple interest) of the monthly income payable in the first year. Under this option, a lump sum amount would be paid to the beneficiary and in addition to this, a monthly increase income would be paid for the next 10 years from the date of payment of the lumpsum amount. This model helps the beneficiary to clear the loans or liabilities and then enjoy the income with an option to fight inflation.
• Increasing Cover: Under this variant, the sum assured payable increases by 5% per annum (simple interest) of the lump sum life cover amount chosen by the policyholder at policy inception on each policy anniversary. Immediately on the death of the life insured, the sum assured effective as on the last policy anniversary will be paid to the beneficiary as lumpsum. In simple words, under this option, the beneficiary would be paid increasing income with each passing year. The income paid would be increased by 5% per annum and the increased income would be paid to the beneficiary from the next anniversary. This option enables the beneficiary to lead a comfortable life by battling inflation.
• Decreasing Cover: Under this option, the sum assured payable decreases by 5% per annum (simple interest) of the lump sum life cover amount, on completion of every 5th policy year. Immediately on the death of the Life Insured, the sum assured effective as on the last policy anniversary will be paid to the beneficiary as lumpsum.

Enhance Cover with Changing Needs:

There is an option to increase the sum assured in the future at various stages of life such as Marriage, Child Birth, or House Loan. Let us understand each of these in detail:-

• Marriage: In the case of marriage after the policy start date, 50% of the death benefit sum assured chosen at the time of inception can be increased subject to a maximum of Rs.50 Lacs. This option is available only once per policy term and is not applicable if the insured is already married. This helps to increase the sum assured of the policyholder in the event of marriage which comes with an increase in premium which would be calculated from the time of increased sum insured date.
• Child Birth: 50% of the death benefit sum assured chosen at the time of policy inception, not exceeding Rs.25Lacs would be added to the base sum assured. This option can be availed twice during the policy period for each childbirth. The increased sum assured would be charged as per the premium decided by the insurance company and the increased premium would be payable from the date of increase of the sum assured. For each childbirth, 50% sum assured would be increased up to a maximum of Rs.25 Lacs depending on the base sum assured of the policyholder.
• House Loan: In case the policyholder goes for a house loan, 50% of the death benefit sum assured chosen at inception not exceeding Rs.50 Lacs would be increased on payment of additional premium. This option can be availed once during the policy term at the time of house purchase on loan. It is very important to purchase the life insurance cover after availing of the housing loan to prevent the burden of repayment on the family members in case of the untimely death of the policyholder. Then maximum sum assured that can be increased under this option would be Rs.50 Lacs or 50% of the base sum assured whichever would be lower.

Return of Premium:

There is a premium back variant available under the Max Life Smart Term Plan which should be opted only at the policy inception time and cannot be availed at a later date. Under this plan, if the life assured survives through the policy period, the premium amount payable during a policy year chosen by the policyholder (excluding the underwriting extra premium, loading for modal premium, rider premiums, and applicable taxes) will be paid at the end of the policy period and the policy will terminate. In simple words, the premium paid by the policyholder throughout the policy period would be returned to the policyholder if he/she survives the policy period.

The premiums payable for a policy with “Return of premium” cover would be slightly higher than that of a normal policy as the premium has to be returned to the policyholder at the end of the policy period after which the policy would be terminated. The return of premium policy enables the customer to get back the premiums paid during the policy period if he/she is able to survive the policy period.

Comprehensive Protection:

The Max Life Smart Term plan provides comprehensive protection to the customer by ensuring the protection against death, diseases, and disability by adding Max life Waiver of premium plus rider & against any accidental death by adding Accident cover option.

Max Life Waiver of premium plus rider provides a waiver for all future premiums under the policy and all other attaching riders or additional options on the earlier happening of any of the following events:

• Critical Illness
• Dismemberment
• Death( when Insured & policyholder is different)

In the case of the above-mentioned cases, the entire future premium would be waived off by the insurance company so that the policyholder would continue to enjoy the life insurance coverage without paying any premiums for the remaining policy term. If the policyholder is dead within the policy period, then the entire sum assured would be payable to the beneficiary.

The Accident cover option is an add-on under the Max Life smart term plan where the beneficiary would get 100% of the accident sum assured irrespective of the death benefit chosen by the policyholder. In simple terms,, the death benefit would be payable to the beneficiary in addition to the accident sum assured which would be over and above the base sum assured under the policy. For this add-on,, there would be an additional premium to be paid by the policyholder for the period of coverage of the add-ons.

Accelerated Critical Illness Benefit:

Accelerated critical illness benefit is payable on diagnosis of any of the 40 critical illnesses during the CI benefit cover period, provided the policy is in force and meets the terms and conditions. The ACI sum insured has to be chosen in intervals of Rs.5 Lacs. The ACI Sum insured shall accelerate the death benefit sum insured to the extent of ACI Sum insured with the remaining death benefit payable on death.

In simple terms, a part of the base sum assured of your term policy would be paid to you in case of diagnosis with any of the 40 mentioned critical illnesses. The Max life term plans would continue to cover the policyholder till the death after the ACI benefit paid under the policy. No extra Sum assured would be paid in case of diagnosis with any of the mentioned critical illnesses, hence the name accelerated CI benefit.

Longer Cover duration:

The maximum term under which the policy can be availed with the Max Life Smart term plan is 85 years. The maximum policy term is 50 years under the policy. The longer cover under the Max Life smart term plan enables the customer to get life insurance coverage for an extended period of time.

Choice of premium payment terms:

Max Life smart term plan offers the customers to pay the premium as per their convenience in accordance with the choices available under the plan. There are different choices which are available under the plans such as

• One-time premium payment- The life insurance premium is paid in a lump sum and the cover is available for the entire policy period.
• Limited period premium payment- The policyholder can choose to pay the premium for a limited period such as 5 years, 10 years, 15 years till the age of 60 years, etc.
• Throughout the policy term- Under this option, the customer can pay the premiums regularly throughout the policy period. Each year the premium can be paid to the insurance company and the coverage can be extended for the time the premium is paid.

The final premium to be paid under the Max Life smart term plan depends on the base sum assured selected, riders opted, premium payment term, age of the policyholder, and any other terms and conditions.

Key Features of SBI Life Smart Shield Plan:

There are certain key features of the SBI Life Smart Shield Plan which are described below:-

Plan Options:

There are two plan options under the SBI Life Smart shield plan which are described below:-

• Level Term Assurance: Under this option, the policyholder can have the same level of coverage throughout the policy period. For example, if you opt for Rs.50 Lacs sum assured at the time of taking the policy then the sum assured would remain constant throughout the policy period without any increase or decrease. The premium to be paid throughout the policy period would be determined by the insurance company before the policy issuance. In case of the death of the policyholder at any point of time during the policy period, the entire sum assured would be payable to the beneficiary.
• Increasing Term Assurance (@5% per annum): The increasing term assurance plan provides an option to increase the sum assured under the policy by 5% each year for a small increase in the premium amount to be paid by the policyholder. The increasing term assurance increase the base sum assured by 5% each year which adds to the existing sum assured mentioned under the policy. Simple interest is added to the base death benefit sum assured under the plan each year for a nominal premium. This option is highly beneficial if we consider the factors such as inflation, a higher standard of living, etc. Instead of taking a new term insurance policy each time your income or standard of living increases, you can simply opt for this option where the sum assured increases each year.

Comprehensive Risk coverage:

The SBI Life smart shield plan provides comprehensive risk coverage to the policyholders as part of the policy which includes:

• Accidental Death Benefit Rider: The accidental death benefit rider provides additional coverage to the policyholder in case of the death of the policyholder due to accidental means. A total of 100% accidental death benefit sum assured would be paid to the nominee on the death of the policyholder in addition to the base death benefit sum assured mentioned under the policy. For instance, if the base sum assured under the policy is Rs.50 Lacs and the accidental death benefit rider sum assured is Rs.50 Lacs, in case of death of the policyholder due to accidental means the beneficiary would get a total of Rs.1 Crore (50 lacs base + 50 lacs rider). The sum assured provided under this option would be over and above the base, sum assured for an additional premium to be paid by the policyholder.
• Accidental Total and Permanent Disability Rider: In case of accidental total and permanent disability to the policyholder, a sum assured would be provided to the policyholder by the insurance company. The sum assured to the provided under this rider would be separate from that of the base death benefit sum assured. For instance, if the base sum assured under the policy is Rs.50 Lacs and the accidental total and permanent disability rider sum assured is Rs.50 Lacs, in case of accidental disability of the policyholder he/she would get a total of up to Rs.1 Crore which includes the base sum assured as well as the rider sum assured. To avail of this rider policyholder has to pay a certain amount of premium to the insurance company.

Death Benefit:

In case of unfortunate demise of the life assured during the term of the policy, the nominee will receive the benefits depending on the plan option chosen. The death benefit is the base sum assured available under the SBI Life Smart shield plan. In the case of a level assurance term plan, effective sum assured as on date of the plan would be paid to the nominee of the policyholder and this sum assured would be the death benefit under the policy. In case of increasing term assurance @5% simple per annum, the effective sum assured at the time of death of the policyholder would be the sum assured increased at 5% per annum each year till the death.

The death benefit as mentioned above is the basic sum assured under the SBI Life smart shield term plan. Any sum assured above this plan would require an extra premium to be paid for riders such as Accidental death benefit and Accidental Total and permanent disability benefit rider.

Special Premium Discounts:

There are special premium discounts offered to the customers opting for large sum assured. The premium discounts are offered on the basis of the sum assured selected by the policyholder. Below is the table showing the special premium discounts available for the customers opting for high sum assured:-

Staff Discount:

Surrender benefits will be paid immediately on the request, surrender is allowed from the first policy year. The surrender value is paid as per the plan option opted by the policyholder.
