Benefits of ABSLI Life Shield Plan
Your family doesn’t need to compromise on the lifestyle under any unfortunate situation. Empower your loved ones to face unforeseen circumstances of life.
Death Benefit
If the life insured passes away during the policy term, the nominee(s) will receive the death benefit mentioned in the policy. The death benefit amount is the sum assured minus any previously paid terminal illness benefit. Once the death benefit is paid, the policy is terminated. Please read the policy brochure for more details.
Terminal Illness Benefit
In case the life insured is diagnosed with a Terminal Illness, 50% of the sum assured is paid immediately subject to a maximum of ₹ 2.5 crores. Plus we will waive off all the future premiums to reduce the financial burden in this scenario. On subsequent death during the policy period, the remaining sum assured will be paid to the nominee. Please refer to the policy brochure for more details.
Plan Options
We offer a wide range of 8 plan options under the ABSLI Life Shield plan so that you can buy the best most suitable term insurance as per your requirement.
Level Term Assurance
Option 1
The sum assured you choose at the inception of the policy remains constant throughout the policy term. You can not change the sum assured in the middle of the policy term. Also, the premium is steady for the entire policy term.
Level Term Assurance with Waiver of Premium Benefits
Option 2
This plan option comes with a waiver of premium feature. In addition to all benefits under option 1; this option waives all future premiums in case the life insured is diagnosed with a critical illness or suffers from total permanent disability, whichever occurs earlier. The policy continues till the end of the policy term.
Term Insurance without riders is security half-done!
Term insurance riders are optional covers that add extra protection to your base term insurance policy. With a nominal additional premium, you can choose to broaden the scope of coverage as per your requirements.

How does ABSLI Life Shield Plan work?
Use Case 1
Use Case 2
Use Case 3
Atul (aged 35) and Nina (aged 30) made a couple and were non-smokers. They chose ABSLI Life Shield with Joint Life Cover for 30 years.
In this case, the primary insured get the sum assured Rs.1 crore and secondary sum assured get life cover of Rs.50 lakhs.
The annualized premium for Atul is Rs.11,510/-(for cover of Rs.1 crore) and for Nina is Rs.4,375/-(for cover of Rs.50 lakhs). The Joint Life Premium Payable is Rs.15,448 (with 10% discount on the premium for the spouse).
In case of the death of the primary insured, the spouse gets the sum assured and the life cover for the secondary insured continues, with premiums waived off. Later, after the death of the secondary insured before the maturity date, the nominee gets the benefit and the policy ceases to end.
In case, the secondary insured dies first, the sum assured will be paid to the primary insured. The future premiums will be reduced. Later if the primary insured passes away before the maturity date, the nominee gets the benefit. The policy then ceases to an end.
