When an insured find it difficult of submit premium in time, he can excersise the option and request for loan cum revival of the policy.
By doing so, the premium is credited by raising a loan against the policy at a low rate of interest.
where, the insured is not at all in a position to pay further premiums + outstanding dues (loan + interest) in that case aslo, he can raise further loan against the policy and contine to maintain the policy coverage.
At the end of the policy period or in the event of any eventuality, the maturity proceed and/or the claim proceed is paid to the insured / his noiminee after adjustment of the outstanding dues, if any.
The above is only permissible for Life insurance business, where at least premium is deposited for more than 3 years and policy conditions allow the insured to raise loan under the policy.
