In conventional policies, insuranace Companies pay sum insured + guaranteed additions during maturity. In death claims within policy period, full sum insured and G/A for up to the specified period are paid. However, in term assurance policies, no payment is made on maturity. Only in death case within policy period, full sum insured amount is paid. In Unit Linked Insurance Policies,payment is calculated on the units as on date of maturity or surrender multiplied by the prevailing nav rate.
