Accident Benefit (AB) is an optional benefit which is available on payment of additional premiums @$1.00 per thousand sum assured. When you opt for AB and if it is accepted by LICI, you get Total Permanent Disability (TPD) Benefit and Premium Waiver, completely FREE.  The AB rider is, in fact, a package of three benefits which the LICI policyholders can enjoy at such an affordable rate. The package consists of the following three benefits:

Accidental Death Benefit: An additional sum assured becomes payable if the life assured dies as a result of an accident. The maximum limit for the accidental death benefit that is payable under all the LICI policies of the life assured put together is $200,000.

Total & Permanent Disability (TPD) Benefit: This benefit becomes payable when the life assured survives an accident but becomes totally and permanently disabled and as a result that he cannot undertake any employment or any economic activity for his livelihood. This benefit is also available when the TPD occurs due to a sickness. This benefit is payable to the life assured in the form of an amount equal to the basic sum assured in 120 monthly instalments.

Premiums Waiver: This benefit is available along with the TPD Benefit. Where a TPD is granted, all the future premiums falling due (from the following policy anniversary) under the policy are waived by LICI. However, the normal risk cover on the life assured continues till the date of maturity; in case of his or her death before the maturity date, the basic sum assured + vested bonuses and all the unpaid instalments of TPD, if any also are payable. On survival of the life assured until the maturity date, the normal maturity value (sum assured + vested bonuses) becomes payable.

The maximum limit for the Accident Benefit, TPD Benefit and Waiver Benefit under all the LICI policies of the life assured put together is $200,000.
