It's a time for High Five for every Indian!! After four super successful schemes launched by Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi earlier, another one was launched on August 01, 2015 in the name of Pradhan Mantri Sneha Bandhan Yojana now named as Suraksha Bandhan with an objective to encourage brothers to gift security schemes to their sisters and also enhance financial inclusion. This social security scheme would be driven by various banks and insurance companies which are offering the newly launched cheapest insurance schemes.
Benefits/Features of Suraksha Bandhan
This scheme is especially made for Raksha Bandhan festival in which brother can buy gift cheques with pre-fixed denomination and gift it to his sister. The gift cheques can be purchased any time in a year and gifted for any occasion.
Where to purchase gift card from? You can buy gift cheques from all the banks which are offering PMSBY and PMJJBY.
How will the money get deposited? Receiver of the gift card needs to visit her bank and deposit the card. If there is no bank account then zero balance bank account can be opened. You can also open zero balance account under Jan Dhan Yojana.
Here are the details of three gift cheques:
- Jeevan suraksha gift cheque of Rs. 351 will be used to pay one year premium of Suraksha Bima Yojana and Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana. Here's a table showing how this amount will be used and the balance that would be credited to the bank account of the recipient for future premium payment.
