Frequently Asked Questions

Life insurance helps you protect the people who depend on you and the life you are building for them. It offers financial support to your loved ones, helping them manage everyday expenses, repay loans, and continue living with financial independence.

 

We offer life insurance plans that go beyond simple protection to support your long-term planning. We help you prepare for future goals like your child’s education or your retirement. Whether you are securing your family, growing your wealth, or protecting your business interests, we stand by you with trusted life insurance plans designed around your needs.

A life insurance policy is a promise you make to your loved ones.

Getting clarity can be easier than you think. It starts with knowing a few key terms that define how your policy works and how it supports your goals.

 

Key terms to know

Insurance Premium

A premium is the small, regular investment you make to secure your long-term peace of mind. It is the amount of money you pay (monthly, quarterly, or annually) for your life insurance plan. Your premium of life insurance depends on factors such as:

The Life Cover you choose

  • - Your age
  • - Your Health
  • - Lifestyle habits
  • - Your profession
  • - The premium paying term
  • - The frequency of life insurance premium payment
  • - The overall Policy Term

Frequency of premium payment

The frequency of life insurance premium payments (often called the "Premium Payment Mode") simply refers to how often you pay your insurance bill during the year.

While the total premium for the year is calculated upfront, you can break that amount into smaller, more manageable instalments. For example:

- Annual: You pay the full premium once a year. This is often the most cost-effective option as many insurers offer a discount for yearly payments.

- Half-Yearly: You pay twice a year (every 6 months).

- Quarterly: You pay four times a year (every 3 months).

- Monthly: You pay every month. This is highly popular for salaried individuals as it feels like a standard monthly bill.

 

Policy Term

The policy term is the number of years you choose to stay insured. Some plans have fixed terms, while others offer flexibility. It defines the duration during which your policy benefits remain active.

Insurance Premium Paying Term

This refers to the number of years you are required to pay premiums. In many policies, the life insurance premium payment term is the same as the policy term, though some plans allow shorter payment durations.

 

Sum Assured

The Sum Assured is the guaranteed amount payable under the insurance policy when insured events occur in relation to the life assured (the person covered by the policy).

 

Survival Benefit

Certain policies offer life insurance payouts at pre-defined intervals, provided the insured person survives those periods. These are known as survival benefits.

 

Maturity Benefit

If you outlive the policy term, the amount you receive at the end of the term is called the maturity benefit.

 

Life Cover or Death Benefit:

This is the amount paid to the nominee in the event of any unfortunate occurrence during the policy term.

 

To make things easier, you can also use our Life Insurance Guide or explore plans that align with your goals.

There are different types of life insurance policies in India, each designed to meet specific life goals and financial needs.

We offer different life insurance plans designed for every goal:

  • Protection Plans – Provide financial coverage to your loved ones in case of unfortunate events during the policy term.
  • Savings Plans – Combine insurance with guaranteed savings and offer a lump sum at maturity to help you plan future milestones.
  • ULIP (Unit Linked Insurance Plan) – These investment-linked life insurance plans allow you to invest while enjoying life cover and market-linked growth.
  • Child Plan – Help you save for your child’s education and future goals while offering life insurance protection.
  • Retirement Plan (Pension Plan) – These life insurance schemes help you build a retirement corpus and receive a steady income after retirement through annuities or pensions.

Choose a plan based on whether your priority is protection, savings, investment, or retirement planning. We are here to support you through every decision.

The best life insurance policies in India for you depend on your financial goals, family responsibilities, income, and lifestyle. For pure protection, term insurance is ideal. For savings and wealth creation, go for ULIPs or endowment plans. For long-term income, consider retirement and pension plans. You can also compare life insurance policies in India and conduct a need analysis.Use our plan comparison and need analysis tools to identify the option that suits you best.

The right time to get life insurance is as early as possible. The earlier you start, the lower will be your life insurance premium and the stronger life insurance coverage. Whether you are single, newly married, or planning a family, there are flexible life insurance options designed to suit every situation. What matters is taking the step to protect your loved ones and plan with confidence
