SBI Life Saral Shield -Decreasing Term Assurance (Family Income Protection)

	Objective		This policy aims at providing financial stability to a family, in case of death of the breadwinner, by replacing the insured's income with monthly payouts.
What does it do?		This term plan pays sum assured as monthly installments to the nominee in case of loss of life of the insured. Monthly benefit will be calculated as sum assured divided by policy term in months. However, the nominee can also ask for premium as a lump sum which will be a discounted value of remaining monthly payouts. The plan allows the policyholder to surrender the policy after second policy year. Surrender value will be calculated as per a predefined formula. There is no survival benefit.
Pros		Women get 3 per cent discount on premium for level term assurance. The plan offers rebate on high sum assured. Premiums paid toward the policy qualify for tax benefit under section 80C of Income Tax Act.
Cons		Premiums can be paid as single installment only.
Suited for		This policy is suitable if your family cannot deftly manage a lump sum amount in your absence.
Our View		Premium towards this policy can be paid as a single payout only, which is a major drawback. Single premium plan may prove to be expensive as compared to regular premium payment option as you lock-in a large amount for a fixed cover. The reason we say this is because in case something goes wrong in early years of the policy, you have already paid a large amount as premium, to the insurance company. Under regular premium option, in case of a mishap, the family members receive sum assured and future premiums are waived off, something that cannot be done for a single premium policy. Consider this policy only if you think your family cannot manage a lump sum amount in your absence.

Grace Period		You are allowed to pay premiums within 30 days of premium due date for Yearly/ Half-yearly/Quarterly premium payment and 15 days from premium due date in case of Monthly premium payment. If a due premium is not received within the grace period, your policy will lapse and the life insurance cover, including the rider cover, if any, will be terminated.
