FAQs about Policy Surrender and Partial Withdrawal – Individual Plans

What does surrendering a life insurance policy mean?
Surrendering a life insurance policy means exiting from the policy before its maturity. It is the voluntary termination of the insurance contract by the policyholder.

What do I (the policy holder) stand to lose if I surrender the policy before maturity?
If you surrender the policy before its maturity, you stand to lose all the benefits associated with the policy; i.e. death benefits and maturity benefits.
Insurance policies are typically designed to give you financial benefits in the long-term. For maximizing your returns from the insurance investment, it is advisable to stay invested for the entire term. Moreover, surrendering a policy now and purchasing a new life insurance policy later is costly.
An alternative to surrendering the policy is partial withdrawal.

What do I receive when I surrender my policy?
On surrendering your policy, you will be paid a Surrender Value. Surrender Value will be as per the surrender clause mentioned in your policy schedule.
For instance, if you surrender your Unit Linked Insurance Plan (ULIP), the Surrender Value will be equal to your Fund Value (after deduction of charges for surrender and TDS as applicable) on the date of surrender.

Can I surrender my Unit Linked Insurance Plan (ULIP) at any time during the policy term and receive a surrender payout?
As per IRDAI guidelines, lock-in period of five years needs to be completed before any payout can be made to the policyholder.

How can I surrender my policy?
To surrender your policy, please visit the nearest SBI Life Branch and submit the duly filled Surrender Request Form.

What are the documents required for surrendering the policy?

• Surrender Request Form with a recent photograph of the policyholder.

• If you are an NRI, you can check with the SBI Life office about documents required for taxation purpose.

What is Partial Withdrawal?
Partial Withdrawal is an option that allows you to withdraw a part of your fund value. The rules applicable for partial withdrawal may differ from product to product.

What is the benefit of Partial withdrawal?
If need for liquidity arises, partial withdrawal enables you to fulfil your financial requirement without exiting from the policy. By availing the partial withdrawal facility, you can continue to enjoy the life cover that your insurance policy offers.

Documents required for partial withdrawal are the same as those listed under Surrender Request.
