What is SUD Life Pension Plus?

SUD Life Pension Plus is a versatile plan that provides insurance coverage while systematically building your retirement corpus. Your investments are linked to market performance, helping you earn potentially higher returns over time. The plan offers different investment fund options so you can invest based on your risk appetite and financial goals. You can choose how long you want to pay premiums, allowing you to plan according to your financial situation.

Once the policy term ends, you can use the accumulated corpus to purchase an annuity (immediate or deferred) at prevailing rates, ensuring a steady income during retirement. The plan does not have any premium allocation, policy administration, or mortality charges, thus reducing the overall cost.

If you are looking for a long-term investment plan that combines retirement savings and insurance protection, SUD Life Pension Plus is a great option. It ensures that you build a financial cushion for your retirement while having the flexibility to choose how and where to invest.

How Does SUD Life Pension Plus Plan Work?

01.

After selecting the SUD Life Pension Plus Plan, you must decide on the following:

  • Policy term
  • Premium payment term
  • Investment strategy
  • Premium amount
02.

There are 2 investment strategies to choose from: Self-Managed Investment Strategy and Age-Based Investment Strategy. Here’s how they work:

03.

Self-Managed Investment Strategy In this strategy, you get a choice of four pension fund options. You can invest your premium in any of these funds based on your risk appetite and investment preference. You can also switch the fund choices at your discretion.

04.

Age-Based Investment Strategy In this strategy, you decide your risk preference, which is either conservative or aggressive. Based on your chosen risk profile, your premium will be allocated to two funds –namely Pension Equity Plus Fund and Gilt Fund. As your age advances, The allocation will move from the Pension Equity Plus Fund to the Pension Gilt Plus Fund. This is practised to minimise risk at higher ages and secure your returns from short-term volatility. 

05.

The premium, net of applicable charges, is invested in the selected funds depending on the investment strategy that you choose. You can make switches or withdraw funds partially during the policy tenure if needed.

06.

In case the life insured passes away while the policy is active, the nominee will receive the higher of the following amounts:

  • 105% of total premiums paid (including any top-up premiums) minus partial withdrawals made in the last two years OR
  • The fund value on the date the death is reported.
07.

The nominee can choose to:

  • Withdraw the full amount as a lump sum.
  • Use all or part of it to buy an immediate or deferred annuity, which provides regular income.
08.

If the amount is too low to meet the required annuity purchase limit, it will be paid as a lump sum. The nominee may also opt to receive the payout in instalments under the Settlement Option. Once the death benefit is paid, the policy ends immediately.

09.

If the life insured happens to survive till the end of the policy term, they will receive the fund value based on the current NAV, provided the policy is active.

10.

The Vesting benefit can be used in any of the following manner:

  • Use the full amount to buy an immediate or deferred annuity from Star Union Dai-ichi Life Insurance at the prevailing rate.
  • Withdraw up to 60% of the amount as a lump sum and use the remaining to purchase an annuity.
  • Buy an annuity from another insurer as per IRDAI guidelines (currently up to 50% of the amount after commutation).
11.

If eligible, the policyholder can also extend the accumulation or deferment period beyond 60 years.

Yes, you can pay a Top-Up Premium anytime during the policy term, provided your base policy is active. The minimum top-up amount is ?5,000, and the total top-ups cannot exceed the total premiums paid under the base plan. Top-ups come with a 105% life cover and can be partially withdrawn after five years. However, top-ups cannot be made in the last policy year and are surrendered along with the base policy if applicable.

Yes, partial withdrawals are allowed, but only for specific reasons such as higher education or marriage of children, home purchase, medical emergencies, disability expenses, skill development, or starting a business. The minimum withdrawal amount is ?5,000, and the remaining fund value must be at least 105% of the total premiums paid. Withdrawals are first made from top-up premiums, if available.

Yes, the beneficiary can opt to receive the death benefit in instalments over a period of up to five years instead of a lump sum. Payments can be made yearly, half-yearly, quarterly, or monthly. During this period, fund management and switching charges will apply, but partial withdrawals are not allowed. However, the beneficiary can withdraw the entire amount at any time without any extra charges.

The policy shall lapse on non-payment of premiums. If this happens within the five-year lock-in period, the fund value will be moved to a discontinued policy fund after the deduction of the discontinuation charges. It will stay there until you revive the policy or until benefits become payable. However, if premiums are discontinued after the lock-in period, the policy will remain active as a paid-up policy, and the fund value will stay invested.

Yes, surrender or discontinuance charges apply for the first four policy years and depend on the annual premium (AP) or fund value (FV). These charges reduce each year and become zero from the fifth year onwards.
