However, a resident Indian member will be allowed to continue in the plan even in the event of his becoming a NRI subsequently and informing the Trust about his change in status.

Non Resident Indians (NRI) would also be eligible to invest in the plan as and when L.I.C. or such other insurance company with which the Trust may enter into an agreement for the purposes of the said scheme agrees to such a proposal.
 
 

7. Minimum and maximum target amount for an investor

  1. The period of investment under this plan shall be either 10 years or 15 years. Presently, the minimum target amount under the plan is Rs. 15000/-. The Trust may change the minimum target amount if and when it is considered necessary, for those investors who will be investing in the scheme after such a change is made effective. Beyond this minimum, the target amount can be chosen in multiples of Rs.1000/- in case of participation in the 10 year plan and in multiples of Rs.1500/- in case of participation in the 15 year plan. Presently the maximum target amount is restricted to Rs. 75,000/- and can be increased to higher amount as and when permitted by L.I.C. or such other insurance company with which the Trust may enter into such arrangements. A person can participate for the said amount either through one or more applications subject to above mentioned minimum target amount.

  2.  

     

  3. Contributions for membership can be made by a member either half-yearly or annually at his option as agreed upon before the commencement of his participation in the plan. The first contribution shall be made alongwith the application for joining the plan.

  4.  

     

  5. When the member joins the plan for 10 years, each contribution shall be 1/20th of the target amount in the case of the half-yearly mode of payment and 1/10th of the target amount in the case of the annual mode of payment. For the members joining the plan for 15 years, each contribution shall be 1/30th of the target amount in the case of the half yearly mode of payment and 1/15th of the target amount in case of the annual mode of payment.

Similarly in case of yearly mode of payment all subsequent contributions shall fall due in the month of January every year.
However, the member can opt to pay the renewal contributions in advance upto two months and anytime during the month in which such contribution is due.

The following illustration gives the manner of payment of renewal contribution:

[initial contribution (H1)]

[1st renewal contribution (H2)]

    January, 2001 

[2nd renewal contribution (H3)]

II. Yearly 17.01.2000 

[initial contribution (A1)]

January, 2001 

[1st renewal contribution (A2)]

01.11.2000 to 31.01.2001

 
 
 

However, for the initial investment made in plan in the month of April the yearly renewal contribution will have to be paid only during the month of April every year. Since the previous two months viz. February / March would belong to the previous fiscal year and the member may not be able to avail the tax benefit. Similarly, an investor who joins the plan in the month of May will have to pay his subsequent contribution only during April /May each year. This is with a view to avoid complication that may arise in claiming tax rebate. As the books of ULIP will generally be kept closed during the month of June it is expected that no sales will be made under the plan during the month of June and, therefore, the investors who join the plan in July and August will be allowed to pay their contribution only during May/July and July/August respectively.
 
 

8. Life Insurance Premium
 
 

(i) A part of the Investment/Contribution made by an investor will be utilised by the Trust to pay premium for obtaining group insurance cover on the life of the investor from L.I.C. or other insurance companies in case UTI enters into similar arrangements with such companies. Presently annual premia for a target amount of Rs.1,000/- are paid to LIC for a period of 7 and 10 years for the 10 and 15 year plan periods respectively as follows:
