Tata AIA Fortune Guarantee Supreme

What is Tata AIA Fortune Guarantee Supreme?

Tata AIA Fortune Guarantee Supreme is an Individual, Non-Linked, Non-Participating Life Insurance Savings Plan. It combines guaranteed savings with life insurance coverage and is designed to help you achieve your financial goals like retirement planning or funding a child's education. The plan offers a unique feature: guaranteed returns on your investment. This means you'll receive a predetermined amount of money upon maturity or choose to receive a steady income stream throughout the policy term. There's also flexibility in how you receive the income, with options to start immediately or defer until your premium payments are complete. 

Tata AIA Fortune Guarantee Supreme offers two plan options:

• Immediate Income

• My Income

Tata AIA Fortune Guarantee Supreme offers two guaranteed return plan options for receiving your benefits:

• Immediate Income: This option provides you with a dual income stream:

  • Guaranteed Immediate Income: You'll receive this income starting in the second year, in advance, and the frequency will match how often you pay your premiums (monthly, quarterly, etc.).

  • Guaranteed Income: You'll also receive a separate guaranteed income throughout the policy term. You choose how often you want to receive this (annually, semi-annually, etc.), which can differ from the GII frequency.

• My Income: This option allows you to customize your payouts at the start of the policy:

  • Choose your payout schedule: Decide the policy term, premium payment details, and when you want to receive guaranteed benefits during the term (survival benefits). You can choose the frequency (annual, monthly, etc.) for these payouts.

  • Lump sum at maturity: You can also choose to receive a lump sum benefit at the policy's end.

  • Death benefit: This plan offers life insurance coverage throughout the term. You'll need to select a death benefit multiplier, which determines the payout amount in case of death.

Exclusions Under Tata AIA Fortune Guarantee Supreme

The policy excludes coverage for suicide during the first year. If the insured dies by suicide within 12 months of starting the policy or restarting a lapsed policy, the beneficiaries will receive either:

• 80% of all the premiums paid so far, or

• The policy's surrender value (cash value you'd get if you cancel),

whichever is greater. This is only paid if the policy is still active at the time of death. After the first year, the suicide exclusion no longer applies, and the full death benefit is paid as usual.

Note: This clause only applies to the first death in a joint life policy if it happens within the first year.
