The sum assured is equal to the loan amount. In the event that a client suffers a natural or accidental death over the course of his/her loan term, his/her nominee is released from the burden of repayment of loans and is also entitled to receive the principal amount already repaid by the client. As an added benefit, spouse insurance is also being offered to both JL Loan and IBL clients.
