Hi, Ulips come with a lock-in period of 5 years, which means you cannot take out your money in the first 5 years. But you can choose to discontinue your policy by not paying more premiums.  Upon discontinuance, the insurers levy a charge—a maximum of Rs 6,000 if discontinued in the first year, which gets reduced to Rs 2,000 if you discontinued in the fourth year, and nil thereafter. The purpose of discontinuance fund is to hold your money from the lapsed policy till the lock-in period is over, and also pay some interest ( 3 to 4%) on it. May I know the names of your MF schemes?
