Waiver of Premium Rider:

The premium amount is calculated depending on your age, your lifestyle, the type of plan, the sum assured and the policy term. You pay this regular premium amount out of your monthly income. What if you lose your income due to a certain unexpected situation like disability or an accident or a critical illness?
