Shriram Money Back Term Plan

	Objective		Besides paying sum assured, this term policy also returns premiums paid by the policyholder either on death during policy term or survival of policyholder. One can also convert the policy into a whole life plan during fifth last year of the policy term.
What does it do?		This is a money back term insurance plan which refunds all basic premiums along with sum assured on demise of the life insured. In case, policyholder outlives the policy term, the policy refunds all basic premiums paid, excluding rider premiums or any extra premiums. The insurance company also allows one to surrender the policy after completing 3 years, provided premiums for first 3 years have been paid regularly. The surrender value will be calculated as per the predefined formula. The policy can be converted into a whole life one on fifth last policy anniversary without undergoing any medical test. The whole life policy commences immediately from the year of conversion. After conversion, the premiums rates will change, however, the sum assured will remain the same. For whole life policy, premiums will have to be paid only upto 65 years of age on an annual basis or as a single payment. The choice to continue or terminate the existing riders lies with the policyholder at the time of conversion. Survival benefit is paid as a sum of all basic premiums paid till the date of conversion. The percentage of premiums to be refunded by the insurance company will depend on policy term elapsed. It also offers optional riders to increase the scope of coverage.
Pros		It allows to convert the policy into a whole life policy at 15th policy anniversary, without any medical check-ups. The policy grants a premium rebate on high sum assured. These rebates apply to the premiums paid prior to conversion only. It offers a range of rider options for an added protection. The policy can be surrendered. Premiums qualify for taxation benefits.
Cons		Maximum sum assured is limited to Rs 20 lakh, making it unsuitable for those in need of a higher cover. Critical illness rider covers only 6 dreaded diseases.
Suited for		It is suitable for those who would like to receive some amount on survival.
Our View		This is a complicated policy that returns premiums as either death benefit along with sum assured or survival benefit on maturity. Other options like surrender, whole life plan conversion and return-of-premium make the policy costly as compared to others in its category. Avoid such complications when buying insurance. We recommend pure term plans that offer life cover at much cheaper rates.
