Speaking at the Launch, Rajesh Sud, CEO & Managing Director, Max Life Insurance said, “The launch of SHIKSHA PLUS SUPER completes our suite of products required for all life stage needs that are compliant with the new guidelines effective January 1, 2014.
While in the yesteryears, it was all about focusing only on children’s education to ensure their good career, in today’s day and age of ever evolving needs, development of an all-round personality of children and supporting them in areas beyond education is of utmost importance. Max Life conducted an extensive ethnographic consumer study to understand these deep-rooted behavioral aspects of parents which have helped us formulate this solution. This offering is targeted at parents who aspire for all round development of their children and want to secure the future of their children whether they are there or not there. This product is packed with superior customer value proposition and greater emphasis on protection to gain control over uncertainties of life and inflation.”

The maximum amount that can be partially withdrawn is 50% of the Fund Value as on the date of partial withdrawal per policy year.
Investment Flexibility
SHIKSHA PLUS SUPER offers customers the choice of investing premiums in five investment funds offered by Max Life Insurance with an option of Dynamic Fund Allocation and Systematic Transfer Plan. Dynamic Fund Allocation frees the policyholders from selecting the investment funds manually since this function automatically invests between equity and debt oriented funds in a pre-defined proportion that keeps changing as policy nears maturity. This investment strategy endeavors to safeguard their fund from any capital erosion by increasing the fund allocation in debt funds as policy progresses towards maturity. Systematic Transfer Plan, on the other hand, replicates the rupee cost averaging method thereby allowing the policyholder to benefit from the market volatility.
The plan also empowers policyholders to manage their investments by effecting free switches and premium redirection facility to proactively manage their investments and redirect their future premiums into new funds of their choice.
