 *“ Single Premium” here refers to Purchase Price which is defined as the lump sum premium amount paid by the policyholder at the inception of the  policy excluding the taxes if any.

 # Total Premiums Paid” here refers to the total of all Premiums received under the Policy, excluding any extra premium, any rider premium and applicable taxes, cesses or levies (if any)

  • Life Certificate: A life certificate is a document used as a proof of existence that is submitted by annuitants at specified time intervals to continue receiving their annuity. With Max Life Insurance now you have to submit life certificate every 5 years instead of every year, if you have availed the return of premium option. For the Non-ROP (Return of Premium) option the frequency continues to be yearly. Further in the ROP option, in case of death and non-intimation to Max Life Insurance (within the 5 years), any annuities paid to the customer will not be adjusted from the death benefit and the nominee will get the full amount.

  • Choose from any of the four annuity payout modes available - monthly, quarterly, half yearly or yearly.
  • The annuity amount that you receive will be based on the annuity rate applicable at the time of purchase of the policy. Once purchased, the annuity rates are guaranteed for the lifetime of the annuitant(s). Please note that the rates will be applicable only after the policy is issued.
