Digit ICON - A Guaranteed* Returns Savings Life Insurance Plan
While some of us prioritise financial protection over savings, others might look for savings and income options, along with life cover. Some might want guaranteed* returns, while others might have a higher risk appetite and want to maximise their returns.
There has not been a one-cut fit for all product in the life insurance market.
However, if you are looking to build a corpus through safe returns, want to plan your retirement income or a secondary guaranteed* income, the guaranteed* savings life insurance plans are a safe choice.
This is besides the Insurance cover that is available under the Plan.

Tax Benefit

Corpus Building
Some of these plans provide the option of lumpsum payouts. Through systematic savings and the power of compounding you can build a substantial future corpus that can help you meet your financial goals. Thus, you can enjoy your golden years, go on a dream vacation or fund your child’s higher education without any financial worries.
Retirement Planning
The whole life variants in savings life insurance plans provide lifetime coverage, and some of them can be a source of regular, steady income. These plans have a long tenure, up to 100 years of age of the life assured. In that tenure, they provide financial coverage, some of them provide a regular income option during a certain specified period, and some also provide the option of lumpsum withdrawals.
Disciplined Savings
With a savings life insurance plan, you commit to regular premium payments. This fosters a disciplined approach to consistent savings, thus promoting responsible financial management and in turn building wealth over time.

In case, you pay premiums at least for first two policy years and do not pay premiums later for any reason, the policy will continue with reduced benefits and will be in a state of reduced paid up.
Can I surrender the Digit ICON policy anytime during the policy term?
Yes, you can cancel the policy whenever you want, but after the first year. Nevertheless, the surrender value won't be reimbursed until all premiums for a full year have been paid. Once the insurance is surrendered, the surrender value is paid, and the policy is terminated.
For single premium policies, the surrender value is attained right after the commencement of the policy and hence, can be surrendered anytime after policy commences.
Can I take a loan against the Digit ICON policy?
Yes, you can take the loan under this policy subject to minimum amount of Rs. 5,000 and maximum amount not exceeding 80% of available surrender value as per the terms and conditions of policy.
The loan can be taken anytime during the policy term once the policy attains surrender value. Thus, for limited and regular pay policies, it can be taken after paying premiums for at least first two years and for single premium policies, it can be taken any time after the policy commences.
