If premiums have been paid for a period of three years and thereafter due to unforeseen circumstances, payments cannot be made, policy will automatically be converted into a paid up policy for a reduced sum assured, payable on the date of maturity or in event of the policyholder’s death, if earlier.

The paid-up value of a policy is the reduced sum assured calculated on a proportionate basis by using a simple formula

Paid-up Value=(No of premiums paid/Total no of premiums payable) x Sum Assured
