Whose terms and conditions should be uniform, clean and easy. Now this product has arrived in the market. We are going to tell you what this simple pension plan is, and why you should take it.
Actually, insurance companies sell insurance policies and pension plans under different names. A common person does not understand their different difficult terms, and also becomes a victim of misselling. Therefore, IRDAI thought of bringing a product whose rules, features and benefits will always be the same, no matter which company sells it. This has been called the simple pension scheme. However, insurance companies may charge premiums separately.
What is simple pension scheme?
This is a single premium pension plan, that is, you will have to pay the premium only once while taking the policy, you will continue to get pension for the whole life. If the policyholder dies, the amount of single premium is returned to his / her nominee. Saral Pension Scheme is an intermediate annuity plan, that is, you start getting pension as soon as you take a policy. After taking this policy, as much as the pension starts, the pension gets full life.
