Changes in Insurance Domain - HEALTH INSURANCE

Portability To Take Off

The much-awaited health insurance portability became effective from October 1, last year, but by all accounts, it has been a slow starter so far. However, insurers expect it to pick up speed between January and March, when salaried individuals are on a tax-saver-instrument buying spree. The framework could also spawn newer varieties of products and services. With increasing awareness on health insurance portability, more proposals on portability can be expected in the year 2012, value-added services will be launched in terms of second medical opinion, vaccinations, and discounts on health care facilities like on diagnostics and preventive health care facilities, like gyms.

Distribution To Spread Wings

After the Ulip charge ceilings that were placed in September 2010, many agents saw their business dwindle and eventually dropped out. The year 2012 could see the fructification of the agent-mentoring model that the Irda has mooted. The initiatives around creation of a senior, mentoring agents framework, new bancassurance norms and regulatory push towards shifting focus from metros to semi-urban and rural areas will widen access to products.

Expansion In Coverage

The list of health insurers offering OPD products that extend coverage to maternity expenses and dental treatment could grow longer this year, with Irda itself backing it. The Irda chief has asked insurance companies to target a larger healthcare cover, over and above hospitalisation policies, by creating such OPD products. With the entry of more international players, we expect cost-effective OPD — comprehensive health insurance policies in 2012. At present, most basic health policies kick in only if the insured is hospitalised for at least 24 hours or is undergoing treatment through day-care procedures.

How to Decide your asset allocation with Mutual Funds?

Invest In Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Buy Gold Mutual Funds Call 0 94 8300 8300 (India) How to Decide your asset allocation ? The funds that base their equity allocation on market valuation have given stable returns in the past. Pick these if you are a buy-and-forget investor. Small investors are often victims of greed and fear. When markets are rising, greed makes the small investor increase his exposure to stocks. And when stocks crash to low levels, fear makes him redeem his investments. But there are a few funds that avoid this risk by continuously changing the asset mix of their portfolios. Their allocation to equity is not based on the fund manager's outlook for the market, but on its valuations. Our top pick is the Franklin Templeton Dynamic PE Ratio Fund, a fund of funds that divides its corpus between two schemes from the same fund house-the...

How to generate a UAN Online

Best SIP Funds Online   In order to make Employees' Provident Fund (EPF) accounts portable, the Employees' Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) had launched the facility of Universal Account Number (UAN ) in 2014. Having a UAN is now mandatory if you have an EPF account and are contributing to it. So far, you got this number from your employer and every time you changed jobs, you had to furnish this number to the new employer.  However, in order to make it easier for you to get a UAN , and without your employer's intervention, the EPFO now allows you to go online and generate a UAN on your own. This facility can be used by freshers, or new employees, who are joining the workforce as well as by employees who have older EPF accounts but do not have a UAN as yet. As a new employee, you can simply generate a UAN and provide the number to your employer at the time of joining, when you need to fill up forms for your EPF contribution. As per a circula...

Reliance Regular Savings Fund - Debt Option

Reliance Regular Savings Fund - Invest Online     The scheme aims to generate optimal returns consistent with moderate levels of risk. It will invest atleast 65 per cent of its assets in debt instruments with maturity of more than 1 year and the rest in money market instruments (including cash or call money and reverse repo) and debentures with maturity of less than 1 year. The exposure in government securities will generally not exceed 50 percent of the assets. The fund uses a mix of relatively low portfolio duration with active investments in higher-yielding corporate bonds. It does not take aggressive duration calls but tries to improve returns by cherry-picking corporate bonds. This is reflected in the fund's returns matching the category and benchmark for five years - at 8.4 per cent - but lagging behind the category during a raging bull market in bonds in the last one year. The fund has been a consistent but not chart-topping performer in the income category. Despite its ...

Gifts to relatives will not attract tax

Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online Current open Infra Bond Application form Gifts are always special to the recipient and it would be extra-special if there is no tax payable on these. The taxman believes so, too. In the provision introduced in Section 56 of the Income Tax Act, if any sum of money is received gratis by an individual or Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) during any year, it shall not be taxable if from a relative. The law has already defined the term 'relative' and HUF. However a case that came up before the Income Tax Tribunal shows that some clarifications were still needed. Background The law also exempts gifts during special occasions like marriage of an individual or under a will or by way of inheritance and even in contemplation of death of the payer. Money received as grants or loans from educational institutions/universities, charitable trusts or similar institutions is also exempt. The term relative has been defined in the law to include spo...
