Revival
A lapsed Jeevan Varsha policy can be revived by paying amount overdue of premium together with interest within a period of five years from the date of first unpaid premium but before maturity. The rate of interest applicable will be as fixed by the Corporation from time to time.
Paid up value:
If 3 full years premiums have been paid and any subsequent premium be not duly paid, this Jeevan Varsha policy shall not be completely canceled, but shall subsist as a paid-up policy for a reduced sum.
The Sum Assured of the policy shall be reduced to such a sum (called paid-up value), as shall bear the same proportion to the full Sum Assured as the number of premiums actually paid bears to the total number of premiums fixed for in the policy , less any survival benefit paid.
The policy so reduced shall be free from all liability for payment of the premiums, but shall not be entitled to the Guaranteed Additions from the due date of first unpaid premium. However, the accumulated Guaranteed Additions will remain attached to the reduced paid-up policy.
Notwithstanding the benefits available under a fully in force policy, in the case of a reduced paid up policy, no survival benefits shall be payable and the paid-up value along with the accrued Guaranteed Additions, if any, shall be payable only in lump-sum on the expiry of policy term or death of life assured, if earlier.
Surrender Value:
It will be available after the expiry of 3 policy years, provided the premiums have been paid for at least three years. The guaranteed surrender value will be equal to 30 percent of the total amount of the premiums paid excluding the premium for the first year, all extra premiums that may have been paid and the amount of survival benefits paid earlier.
