2) If Proposer(In most cases parents) dies and if PWB is taken(In many policy it comes by default)all the future premium will be waived, and child will continue to get all the benefit stated in the policy.
3) If Child dies
a) Before commencement of risk, Premium paid is returned
b) After Commencement of risk, S.A + Bonus is paid to proposer.
Policy gets terminated.
For a child policy, normally risk commence after child completes 7 years or after 2 years of policy, whichever is later.
