    If the policy is in the Discontinued Policy Fund, the Death Benefit will be the fund value. The policy ends once the Death Benefit is paid.

  • Maturity Benefit: If the Life Assured survives the policy term, the Maturity Benefit will be the Fund Value, based on the performance of selected funds. The policy will terminate once the Maturity Benefit is paid.

  • Settlement Option: At policy maturity, you can opt for a structured payout over 5 years. Payments can be monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually, based on the number of units and their NAV. During the settlement period, no additional charges or bonuses are added, and switches or partial withdrawals are not allowed. If the Life Assured passes away, the Death Benefit will be the higher of Fund Value or 105% of premiums paid.

  • Top-up Premiums: You can pay top-up premiums at any time, except in the last 5 years of the policy. The minimum top-up amount is ₹2,000, and your sum assured increases accordingly.

Policy Details of ICICI Pru Protect N Gain Plan

  • Surrender of Policy: During the lock-in period (5 years), if you surrender the policy, the unit fund value (after deducting applicable charges) will be transferred to the discontinuance policy fund. Risk and rider coverage, if any, will end. You can receive the Discontinued Policy Fund Value after the death of the Life Assured or after the lock-in period ends. If you surrender after the lock-in period, you’ll receive the surrender value.

  • Premium Discontinuance (For Limited Pay): It is recommended to pay all premiums to enjoy full policy benefits. If premiums are not paid during the lock-in period, the policy will be discontinued after the grace period, with the fund value moved to the Discontinued Policy Fund. If premiums are discontinued after the lock-in period, the policy will convert into a reduced paid-up policy.

  • Reduced Paid-Up Policy: If premiums are discontinued after the lock-in period, the policy will become reduced paid-up with a reduced sum assured. The reduced sum is calculated based on the premiums paid so far.

On cancellation, you’ll receive a refund, including non-allocated premiums, charges, and fund value, minus certain deductions (e.g., risk premium and stamp duty).

  • Premium Adjustment: You cannot increase or decrease the premium amount under the policy.

  • Grace Period: The grace period for premium payment is 15 days for monthly premiums and 30 days for other modes. Life cover continues during this period. If the Life Assured passes away during the grace period, the Death Benefit will be paid.
