We all go through various phases of life - from being young and unmarried to
married, having children and then the golden years. Throughout life we have various
aspirations for ourselves and for our family members like providing world class
education to children, once they grow-up helping them with starting off in life and in
marriage, buying a house, creating a retirement plan for yourself etc.
These goals are often accompanied by added responsibilities, unforeseen expenses
and the likelihood of any uncertainty like death, disease or disability. These
unforeseen events can be financially catastrophic for the family. Saving for each of
these life goals in a disciplined manner throughout ones earning years is the only
proven strategy for achieving your financial goals. Adequate protection for the
unforeseen events is essential to ensure these goals are not jeopardised.
At PNB MetLife, we are always in the pursuit of offering products & solutions which
meet these specific needs. Life Insurance offers you the dual benefits of allowing
you to save and also safeguard you and your family from some of the unforeseen
contingencies.
With the same ethos, we present to you the “PNB MetLife Guaranteed Future Plan”,
a plan that helps you systematically save and offers guaranteed** returns. It also
safeguards you against certain unforeseen life events. The plan ensures that you are
able to meet your life’s financial goals with higher degree of certainty. The plan
offers you complete control and flexibility to customise your savings schedule based
on your needs and affordability. You can also choose the manner in which you
receive maturity amounts (i.e. Income, Lump-sum or combination thereof) and can
also customise the timing to best meet your requirements.

Policy shall not be called in question on ground of misstatement after three years.
(1) No policy of life insurance shall be called in question on any ground whatsoever after the
expiry of three years from the date of the policy, i.e., from the date of issuance of the policy
or the date of commencement of risk or the date of revival of the policy or the date of the
rider to the policy, whichever is later.
(2) A policy of life insurance may be called in question at any time within three years from the
date of issuance of the policy or the date of commencement of risk or the date of revival of
the policy or the date of the rider to the policy, whichever is later, on the ground of fraud:
Provided that the insurer shall have to communicate in writing to the insured or the legal
representatives or nominees or assignees of the insured the grounds and materials on which
such decision is based.
Explanation I.— For the purposes of this sub-section, the expression "fraud" means any
of the following acts committed by the insured or by his agent, with intent to deceive the
insurer or to induce the insurer to issue a life insurance policy:—
(a) the suggestion, as a fact of that which is not true and which the insured does not believe
to be true;
(b) the active concealment of a fact by the insured having knowledge or belief of the fact;
(c) any other act fitted to deceive; and
(d) any such act or omission as the law specially declares to be fraudulent.
Explanation II. — Mere silence as to facts likely to affect the assessment of the risk by
the insurer is not fraud, unless the circumstances of the case are such that regard being
had to them, it is the duty of the insured or his agent keeping silence, to speak, or unless
his silence is, in itself, equivalent to speak.
(3) Notwithstanding anything contained in sub-section (2), no insurer shall repudiate a life
insurance policy on the ground of fraud if the insured can prove that the misstatement of or
suppression of a material fact was true to the best of his knowledge and belief or that there
was no deliberate intention to suppress the fact or that such misstatement of or suppression
of a material fact are within the knowledge of the insurer:
Provided that in case of fraud, the onus of disproving lies upon the beneficiaries, in case the
policyholder is not alive.
Explanation. — A person who solicits and negotiates a contract of insurance shall be
deemed for the purpose of the formation of the contract, to be the agent of the insurer.

(4) A policy of life insurance may be called in question at any time within three years from the
date of issuance of the policy or the date of commencement of risk or the date of revival of
the policy or the date of the rider to the policy, whichever is later, on the ground that any
statement of or suppression of a fact material to the expectancy of the life of the insured
was incorrectly made in the proposal or other document on the basis of which the policy
was issued or revived or rider issued:
Provided that the insurer shall have to communicate in writing to the insured or the legal
representatives or nominees or assignees of the insured the grounds and materials on which
such decision to repudiate the policy of life insurance is based:
Provided further that in case of repudiation of the policy on the ground of misstatement or
suppression of a material fact, and not on the ground of fraud, the premiums collected on
the policy till the date of repudiation shall be paid to the insured or the legal representatives
or nominees or assignees of the insured within a period of ninety days from the date of such
repudiation.
Explanation. —For the purposes of this sub-section, the misstatement of or suppression
of fact shall not be considered material unless it has a direct bearing on the risk undertaken
by the insurer, the onus is on the insurer to show that had the insurer been aware of the said
fact no life insurance policy would have been issued to the insured.
(5) Nothing in this section shall prevent the insurer from calling for proof of age at any time if
he is entitled to do so, and no policy shall be deemed to be called in question merely
because the terms of the policy are adjusted on subsequent proof that the age of the life
insured was incorrectly stated in the proposal.
