Child Protection Insurance Scheme

Under this plan, risk is accepted jointly on the life of the premium payer and the life of the child. The premium payer must be the child’s father; if the father is not alive and the child’s mother has an earning capacity, she may also act as the premium payer. At the time of taking the policy, the child’s age must be at least 6 months and not more than 15 years. At maturity, the child’s age shall not be less than 18 years and not more than 30 years.
