On availing this benefit:
1. The payment of premiums, for the Basic Plan only, falling due after the date of death of the proposer shall be waived;
2. The Premium Waiver Benefit as stated in (a) shall be granted on the basis of satisfactory, personal declaration of health and other requirements;
3. The Premium Waiver Benefit described in (a) shall not operate in the event of the death of the proposer by his own hands, whether sane or insane, within one year from the date of issuance of First Premium Receipt;
4. The additional premium for the rider shall not be taken into account in arriving at the amount to be refunded in the event of death of the life assured before the date of commencement of risk and in calculating the surrender value of the policy;
5. Premium waiver benefit shall cease to apply if the policy is in lapsed / paid-up condition.

3.4 Commission Rates and D.O. credit: Commission rates (as percentage of premium) payable to Agents, Corporate Agents, Brokers and Incentive to Development Officer’s will be at the same rate as those payable under the Basic plan.

3.5 A table of premium rates and extra premium rates for Premium Waiver Benefit is enclosed as Annexure V.

3.6 An endorsement to be attached along with the policy bond of LIC’s Jeevan Tarang plan, if PWB is opted for, is enclosed as Annexure VI.

3.7 Underwriting, Age proof and Medical Requirements: Sum Under Consideration (SUC) will be calculated as per the existing rules on the life of the proposer. The actual SA for PWB will be the sum of all the future outstanding premiums (future instalment premiums excluding first premium) under the basic plan.

3.7.1 Special reports will be called for as per the existing chart of special reports. The cost of all medical and special reports shall be borne by the proposer.

3.7.2 PWB on the life of parent (females under Category I & II and males) is allowed under non-medical (special) scheme and non-medical (general) scheme to professionals.

3.7.3 This benefit can be granted to standard, sub-standard and physically handicapped lives subject to normal underwriting requirements.

3.9 Allowing PWB Rider as an alteration: As PWB rider is being offered now as a modification to the plan, some policies on minor lives have been issued without Premium Waiver Benefit. There may be requests from those policyholders to allow them this optional Benefit. It has, therefore been decided to allow this Rider on policies of minor lives as an alteration subject to underwriting and other conditions mentioned in para 3.2, 3.3 and 3.7 to 3.7.4 above being satisfied. This will be subject to following conditions:

1. Alteration fees of Rs.50/- will be charged.

3. The age applicable for calculation of premium will be age nearer birthday and term applicable will be the outstanding premium paying term on the effective date of alteration i.e. on the policy anniversary coinciding with or the next policy anniversary following the date of receipt of application. SUC will be the sum of all the future outstanding premiums (i.e. future instalment premiums excluding the instalment on policy anniversary on which alteration is being effected).

4. All other terms and conditions of the plan shall remain unaltered.
5. These modifications will come into force with immediate effect.
