This bonus will only be available in that year when either maturity claim or death claim will be filed by you. However, in the case of paid-up policies, Final Additional Bonus will not be payable.
Optional Rider Benefit:
Under this policy, to enhance the security of your child, you can also opt for the Rider benefit, LIC’s Premium Waiver Benefit Rider. This rider plan has to be taken on the life of the Proposer only.
Option To Take Death Benefit in Installments:
