What is the Maturity Amount of the Super Income Plan?

If an investor with a Super Income Plan lives to the policy's maturity, they will get 5 times the annualised premium. The nominee or beneficiary will get the Death Benefit if the insurance holder passes away. For a nominal fee, additional coverages can be added to enhance the Super Income Plan.

A Super Income Plan (SIP) is designed to cater to an individual's need for insurance security and long-term investment goals. This plan can give you financial security, stability and control. A person is eligible to start a Super Income Plan from the age of 25. When individuals turn 50 years old, they will no longer qualify for the policy.

A Shriram Life Super Income Plan has attractive features like life coverage, guaranteed monthly income, Maturity Sum Assured, a wide range of premium payment terms and additional protection through rider covers. Let's look at how a Super Income Plan works to understand all the benefits available with it.

How does a Super Income Plan work?

When investing in a Super Income Plan, understanding how the policy works can help an investor customise it according to their needs. The first step would be to decide when the monthly income should start. This will give the investor an estimate of how long they have to pay the premium. The age at which the investor wants to retire is an excellent example of a benchmark for deciding this tenure.

The next step would be deciding how much you can afford to pay in a year towards the policy. By applying for a Shriram Life Super Income Plan, an investor will get help from our representatives. They will help calculate the monthly benefits that can be received and the maturity amount.

After completing the payment of all the premiums, the income will be paid to the policy holder every month. They will receive a lump sum on the maturity date on surviving the policy term. In the case of the policy holder's demise, the nominee or beneficiary will receive the Death Benefits.

How is the Maturity Value of a Super Income Plan Calculated?

Let’s assume that a policy holder survives till the maturity of the Super Income Plan. In this case, they can avail the Maturity Benefit. Provided the individual paid all the premiums required, " Maturity Sum Assured" will be given to them. The Guaranteed Maturity Sum Assured is calculated by multiplying the total premiums paid by the guaranteed Maturity Sum Assured.

For example, Mr. Ashok who is 30 years old, pays an annual premium of Rs. 60,000 for a tenure of 10 years. The maturity benefit will be Rs. 3,00,000. After calculating the Super Income Benefit, the total benefit he can receive through the Super Income Plan is Rs. 16,14,720.

The Maturity Benefit value can also be calculated as 5 times the annualised premium. After the maturity benefit is paid to the policy holder, the Super Income Plan is terminated and cannot be renewed.

What are the Additional Features Available with the Super Income Plan?

Add-ons or rider covers can be purchased with a Super Income Plan to enhance the policy's benefits. Riders are optional terms added to your base insurance, generally at an extra fee. Simply defined, a rider offers more protection and coverage against hazards. Insurance riders are cost-effective additions to a life insurance policy that an investor can select. Here are some riders to consider getting with a Shriram Life Super Income Plan:

Accident Benefit Rider

• In case of death or total and permanent disability due to an accident during the rider term, we will pay 100% of the rider sum assured.
• If the life assured becomes totally and permanently disabled in an accident. In this case, we will waive all future premiums under the policy.
• The benefit under this rider is applicable only once during the rider term.

Shriram Critical Illness Plus Rider

• This rider also gives an investor an upside of increments in their rider Sum Assured through Loyalty Additions.

Family Income Benefit Rider

• In the event of accidental death or if the life assured becomes totally and permanently disabled due to an accident within the rider term, 1% of the rider sum assured is payable every month.
• This sum will be paid immediately from the end of the month of the accident for a guaranteed period of 10 years or till the end of the rider term, whichever is higher.

Extra Insurance Cover Rider

• In case of the unfortunate demise of the life assured during the rider cover term, the sum assured under rider will be paid to the nominee.
