A unit linked child plan which offers the following benefits to the customer:
- It is a unit linked plan which offers two options of investment portfolio strategies which are Life cycle based Portfolio Strategy and Fixed Portfolio Strategy.

With the passage of the policy term and increasing of the policyholder’s age, the investment will be redistributed gradually every year with money being transferred form the Multi Cap Growth Fund to the Income Fund to protect it from high volatility. In the later ages, as the policy nears maturity, the bulk of the investment will be in the Income Fund which offers a low risk profile. The distribution and balancing of the allocation is done by the company automatically.
- Under the Fixed Portfolio Strategy, the company offers a choice of 6 funds and the policyholder will have to choose the fund according to his risk appetite. The funds available under the options are Opportunities Fund, Multi Cap Growth Fund, Blue Chip Fund, Multi Cap Balanced Fund, Income Fund and Money Market Fund.
