Features of Wealth Ultima Life Insurance

Below is a brief summary of the key features of the plan:
  • Systematic Monthly Plan (SMP): Under SMP, the insured can pay premium commitment on a monthly basis. This helps in:
    • Safeguarding from erratic market movements
    • Easier to pay a small amount monthly than a large amount annually
  • Systematic Transfer Plan (STP): It is often difficult to ascertain which asset class to choose and when to switch between them. STP offers two options set out below to help manage the asset allocation as per needs:
    • Lifestage and duration based STP
    • Profit target based STP
  • You can also choose the Self-Managed Strategy wherein your money will be allocated to your choice of fund(s).
  • Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP): This option allows the insured to withdraw a sum of money systematically and regularly from the Fund Value. This regular stream of money works as a second income for you.
  • Additions in the Policy: Additions add money to the fund value in the Guaranteed Additions, Loyalty Additions and Booster Additions. These help in substantially increasing returns to the insured's corpus.
  • Tax Benefits: The insured can avail income tax benefits on the premiums paid and on the benefits received as per the prevailing income tax laws.
  • Little Champ Benefit : Provide for the insured's child even when they are unfortunately not around.
  • Choose Policy Term and Premium Paying Term as per the insured's need and financial capability:
    • Policy Term ranges from 10 years to 'till age 100'.
    • Premium Paying Term ranges from 5 years to 'till the end of the policy term'.

Plan options of Wealth Ultima Life Insurance

1. Investment Options
Systematic Transfer Plan (STP) Life Stage and Duration based STP
  • Age : As age increases, one’s risk appetite decreases
  • Investment Duration : Short investment duration leads to lower risk appetite
This STP ensures money is moved from equity oriented fund (Equity Large Cap Fund) to debt oriented fund (Bond Fund) as the insured’s age increases and remaining policy term reduces. Under this STP, a proportion of the fund value will be allocated in Equity Large Cap Fund.
Profit Target based STP This STP enables the insured to lock the gains made from equity and reduce the future market volatility by transferring the gains to a safer avenue. Under this STP, 100% of the Premiums (net of allocation charges) are invested in Equity Large Cap Fund. On any day where the gain from the Equity Large Cap Fund reaches 10% or more of the cumulative premiums (including Top-up premiums) paid, the amount equal to the appreciation will be transferred to the Bond Fund at the prevailing unit price.
Self Managed Strategy Under this strategy, the insured can decide to invest their money in any choice of fund(s) in any proportion. The insured can switch monies amongst these funds using the switch option. The funds available are listed alongside:
  • Equity Large Cap Fund : To provide high equity exposure targeting higher returns in the long term.
  • Equity Top 250 Fund : To provide equity exposure targeting higher returns (through long term capital gains).
  • Equity Mid-Cap Fund : To provide equity exposure targeting higher returns in the long term, by largely investing in Midcap Companies.
  • Managed Fund : This fund uses the expertise of the Company's fund manager to decide on the asset allocation between Equity and Debt / Money market instruments along with stock selection.
  • Bond Fund : To provide relatively safe and less volatile investment option mainly through debt instruments and accumulation of income through investment in fixed income securities.
