Working of IndiaFirst Secure Save Plan

IndiaFirst Secure Save Plan follows a simple workflow, with eligible individuals expected to follow a few simple steps to enjoy the benefits of this IndiaFirst Life plan . We can understand its working by taking the example of Miss Anusha, a relationship manager with a popular MNC. Anusha decides to purchase this plan on her 35th birthday, choosing to secure the future of her family. She chooses a sum assured of Rs 50 lakhs, with the policy term being 30 years. She pays an nnual premium towards maintaining this policy.

Consider the following scenarios to see how Secure Save Plan works.

Scenario 1: Anusha pays all the premiums, with the policy ending after 30 years. In this case, she will receive a maturity benefit which consists of the sum assured plus the terminal and reversionary bonus.

Scenario 2: Anusha passes away 20 years after purchasing this plan, leaving behind her husband and two children. In this case, her eldest daughter (nominee) will receive a death benefit which includes the sum assured and the bonuses accrued until Anusha's demise. The policy will cease to end after this lump sum amount is paid.
