ReAssure
2.0 is a first-of-its- kind indemnity plan which makes seemingly impossible and
unheard of product offerings, now possible. Bettering on its3 powerful benefits

offered under current ReAssure plan, ReAssure 2.0 provides a ‘+’ variant of
these benefits to offer unmatched benefits. The comprehensive plan provides complete
peace of mind to customers to live a stress-free life without any financial
constraints.
The key
features under ReAssure 2.0 include –
ReAssure
becomes ReAssure+ and has two components:
ReAssure“Forever”:In this unique benefit the base sum insured
will be triggered after the first claim and once triggered it will remain
forever. This means that the customer will always have a sum-insured equal to
his base sum insured available to him after the customer has made his first
claim, that too unlimited times in a policy.
Lock the
clock: In
this revolutionary benefit, the age at which the consumer enters the policy
gets locked, until the customer makes his first claim in the policy.
Hence the
customer gets to pay the applicable premium as per the entry age, till the
first claim comes. After which the regular age band wise premiums will be paid.
Booster+
benefit: This
benefit allows the unutilized base sum insured to be carried forward to the
next policy year. The sum insured amount will keep on accumulating with each
renewal till upto 5X and 10X, depending on whether the customer has opted for
platinum+ or titanium+ variant.
Safeguard+: This optional
benefit lets one claim for all non-payable items as per Non-Payables Annexure
in addition to safeguarding the Booster+ benefit if the claim in a policy year
is up to 1 lakh. This means that in case the claim amount is less than 1 lakh
the entire base sum insured will still be carried forward without any
deductions to the next policy year.
