What Is Term Insurance?

Term insurance is like a safety net for your family. You pay a small amount regularly to the life insurance company, and if something happens to you, your family gets a big payout. ​

This money helps replace your income and pay off any debts, ensuring your family is financially secure.  ​Buying  term insurance gives you peace of mind knowing your loved ones will be taken care of when you’re not around.

When Should You Buy Term Insurance Plan?

ASAP! The earlier you buy, the better. Here's why:

Lower Premiums: When you buy term insurance at a younger age, you can lock in a lower premium. Insurance premiums generally increase with age, so buying early means you'll pay less over time.

Better Health: Younger individuals are usually healthier, making it easier to get approved for a policy and at a lower cost.

Long-Term Security: Starting early ensures that you have long-term financial security for your family from the outset.

Review your life cover as you enter a new life stage, like marriage, parenthood, etc.

How To Choose The Right Life Cover?
 

 Life Cover is the amount of insurance money that will be paid to your family, in case of your unfortunate death. It should be enough to pay for your family’s lifestyle, debts, and the expenditures that you anticipate in future (like your child’s college admission)
 

Use a simple formula, your life cover should be 10 times your current annual income. So, if your current income is ₹10 lakh per year, your life cover will be ₹1 crore. However, there are many other factors at play, like the number of your dependents, inflation etc.

FAQs About Term Insurance

Here are some frequently asked questions about term insurance

What documents do I need to apply online?

Generally, you'll need ID, proof of age, address, and bank details. Each company may ask for different documents, so it's good to check.

How is it different from other life insurance?

Term policies are all about protection in case of death, offering more coverage for less money. But, if you outlive the policy, there's no payout. Other plans, like ULIPs or traditional policies, might give you money back at the end of the term or have investment elements.

Can I have multiple term insurance policies?

Absolutely! You can have as many as you need to cover different needs or beneficiaries. It's all about tailoring your coverage to fit your life.

Why do smokers pay more?

Since smokers have a shorter life expectancy, the risk is higher for insurance companies. Hence, the higher premium.

Can term life insurance claims be rejected?

Yes, if there's fraud or misinformation involved. Always be honest and update your insurer about any changes. For more details, refer Section 45 of the Insurance Act, 1938

Term vs. Whole Life Insurance?

Term Insurance is for a set period, offering a safety net for your family. Whole Life Insurance lasts your entire life.

Do term plans cover COVID-19?

Yes, most companies now include COVID-19, ensuring you're covered for this too.

07
Payment Frequency

How often you make those payments: monthly, quarterly, or yearly.

Premium Term

The time you'll be paying for the policy. It can be shorter than the policy term, offering flexibility.

09
