 Named basis
 Sum Insured per person* Rate
For e.g. 5 Managers (SI - 1,00,000) and 4 Peons (SI -
1,00,000) are to be insured
Premium = (1,00,000 * 0.35 % * 5) +
(1,00,000 * 0.60 % * 4)
= 1,750 + 2,400
= Rs. 4,150

 Designation basis
 (Sum Insured * Rate) +(No. of persons * Rate per
person)
For e.g. 5 Managers (SI - 1,00,000) and 4 Peons (SI -
1,00,000) are to be insured:
Premium = ( I,00,000 * 0.35%) + (5 * 5)
+
(1,00,000 * 0.60%) +( 20 * 4)
= 375 + 680
= Rs. 1,055
Rating (Contd.)
 Floater basis (for more than one designation)
 (Sum Insured * Weighted average Rate) +(No. of
persons per designation * Rate per person)
For e.g. 5 Managers and 4 Peons are to be insured
with a SI of Rs. 1,00,000 to float over both levels
Weighted average Rate = [(5*0.35) + (4*0.60)] / 9
= 0.461%
Premium = (1,00,000 * 0.461%) + (5 * 5) + (20 * 4)
= Rs. 566
