Maturity Benefit
The most unique feature of this plan is – the flexibility to choose the maturity plan. The parents of the child are eligible to select from two maturity options – Annual Payout Option and Flexi Payout Option. In addition to this, the parents can choose an option at the inception of the policy and can modify it during maturity according to the requirements of children.

Under the Annual Payout Option, 5 equal annual payouts are paid at the end of every year starting from maturity. This option caters to the higher education expenses of the child. The annual payment will be equal to 22 % of the sum assured.
While in the Flexi Payout Option, benefits of maturity are given a lump sum at the end of any year when the time of maturity comes or during maturity’s payout period. In this way, the timings of payouts can easily be customized according to the requirement of children.
