The product also has annuity-like features. According to Piyush Trivedi, joint president, a customer 50 years old could pay premium for 10 years and thereafter receive annual payouts over the next 25 years, and as the payouts are part of life insurance benefits, they are not taxed. Maturity Benefits include a return of premium along with terminal bonuses.
