If the Life Assured is not satisfied with the ‘Terms and Conditions’ of the policy, he/she may return the policy to the Corporation within 15 days from the date of receipt of the policy stating the reason of objections. On receipt of the same the Corporation shall cancel the policy and return the amount of premium deposited after deducting the risk premium, expenses incurred on medical examination and stamp duty.
9. Exclusion:
Suicide: This policy shall be void if the Life Assured commits suicide (whether sane or insane at that time) at any time within one year from the date of commencement of risk and the Corporation will not entertain any other claim by virtue of this policy except to the extent of a maximum of 90% of single premium paid excluding any extra premium (in case of single premium policies).
