Bharti AXA Life Young India Plan

 

 

FEATURES: Bharti Axa Life Young India Plan is a regular premium and traditional participating plan. This plan is specially designed for the young and offers life cover risk till the insured reaches retirement age of 60.


The policy matures at 60 years of age.


ENTRY AGE: You need to be at least 18 years old to buy this policy and not more than 40 years. The minimum annual premium is Rs 8,000.


COVERAGE: You have an option to increase the sum assured or life cover at two important milestones, to be decided by you, such as marriage or childbirth. However, you will have to shell out additional premium for the additional coverage. Additional sum assured cover will terminate when policyholder attains 50 years of age.

For example, for a 25-year-old male, for a base sum assured of Rs 2,00,000 premium will be Rs 11,678. In case he opts to increase life cover at the first milestone after his wedding at the age of 31 by Rs 8,00,000, he will be charged an additional annual premium of Rs 1,688. If he chooses to raise his life cover by Rs 40,00,000 at the second milestone of childbirth, the additional annual premium will be Rs 9,440.


MONEYBACK: Money can be claimed after completion of three policy terms. The amount will depend at the time the claim is made. The minimum amount will be 10 per cent and the maximum is 29.5 per cent of the base sum assured.


SURRENDER BENEFITS: Surrender benefits are available only after completion of three years. The insurer is obligated to pay only 30 per cent of the premium paid (excluding first-year premium). It could also pay a special surrender value. Bonus accumulated will be paid.


DISCOUNT: You get a marginal discount of 5 per cent on premium if you choose a base sum assured of Rs 5,00,000 lakh or more.


MATURITY BENEFIT: The policy matures when you turn 60 years. At maturity, you will receive 200 per cent of the base sum assured plus accrued bonuses, if any.


LOAN: A loan can be availed against this policy, provided the first three years' premiums have been paid in full and the policy has acquired surrender value.

Anyone who has financial responsibility must buy a term plan with significant life cover so that in case of an unfortunate event in the future, the interest of the family can be safeguarded. There are no maturity benefits in a term plan. This plan has limitations because the additional life cover terminates at 50 years, which is hardly a time when all responsibilities are met.


Considering the premium paid, the returns on the premium paid may not be very satisfying.

All about "Derivatives"

What are derivatives? Derivatives are financial instruments, which as the name suggests, derive their value from another asset — called the underlying. What are the typical underlying assets? Any asset, whose price is dynamic, probably has a derivative contract today. The most popular ones being stocks, indices, precious metals, commodities, agro products, currencies, etc. Why were they invented? In an increasingly dynamic world, prices of virtually all assets keep changing, thereby exposing participants to price risks. Hence, derivatives were invented to negate these price fluctuations. For example, a wheat farmer expects to sell his crop at the current price of Rs 10/kg and make profits of Rs 2/kg. But, by the time his crop is ready, the price of wheat may have gone down to Rs 5/kg, making him sell his crop at a loss of Rs 3/kg. In order to avoid this, he may enter into a forward contract, agreeing to sell wheat at Rs 10/ kg, right at the outset. So, even if the price of wheat falls ...

ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund

 ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund scheme seeks to generate long-term capital appreciation and current income by investing in a portfolio that is investing in equities and related securities as well as fixed income and money market securities. The approximate allocation to equity would be in the range of 60-80 per cent with a minimum of 51 per cent, and the approximate debt allocation is 40-49 per cent, with a minimum of 20 per cent. An impressive show in the last couple of years has propelled this fund from a three-star to a four-star rating. The fund has traditionally featured a high equity allocation, hovering at well over 70 per cent, which is higher than the allocations of the peers. But in the last one year, the allocation has been moderated from 78-79 per cent levels to 66-67 per cent of the portfolio. ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund appears to practise some degree of tactical allocation based on market valuations. Within equities, well over two-thirds of the allocation is parked i...

Ways to invest in Gold - Which is best option?

Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online Current open Infra Bond Application form In recent years gold has delivered exceptional returns. In a span of about 6 years — from 2006 to 2011 — gold has given an average return of an "incredible" 29% per annum. Therefore, it is but natural to be attracted towards gold. But let's not forget history. In 1980, gold prices jumped from 300 $/oz to 600 $/oz due to Gulf crisis. But soon thereafter fell to about 450 $/oz in 1981 and then NEVER crossed the $450 mark until 2006. In other words, gold gave ZERO returns over a period of nearly 25 years. The question, therefore, arises — are we going to witness something similar once this worldwide financial crisis is over? Is this a bubble that will burst? The answer, unfortunately, will be known in the future only. Therefore, caution is advised, if you intend to invest in gold — especially now when it is trading at historic levels of 1600-1800 $/oz. However, ...
