Chola MS Family Healthline- Superior

Objective

An online health insurance policy that aims to cover a family of up to two adults and three children under a single policy for a maximum sum insured of 10 lakh.

 

Suited for

It is suitable for a young and growing family.

 

What does it do?

This is the second variant of Family Healthline policy. It offers a family floater cover which means the Sum Insured can be utilized by any of the insured members. It covers hospitalisation expenses for treatment taken as an inpatient, day care procedures, emergency ambulance, pre and post hospitalisation expenses and also provides a daily cash amount for choosing shared accommodation. In addition to these benefits, the policy pays for domiciliary treatment i.e, treatment taken at home, maternity expenses and a daily cash amount in event of an insured minor being hospitalized. This policy comes with a co-payment clause whereby, policyholder will need to pay 10 per cent of admissible claim each time except in case of treatments which already contain a co-pay clause specific to them. Co-pay clause can be waived by paying additional premium. Policyholder may also avail reminder or alert facility known as Chola Wellness Health Alert Services (CWHAS) from insurer by paying an additional premium.

 

Pros

It pays a bonus for every claim-free year on an annual basis.
It allows lifelong renewal.
Chola Wellness Health Alert Services will prevent missing on important events.
It provides an option to waive off the co-payment clause.
It is available online for purchase.
Policy premium qualifies for taxation benefit under section 80D of Income Tax Act.

 

Cons

The co-payment clause requires policyholder to pay 10 per cent of the admissible claim.
There is a cap on room rent, boarding and nursing expenses.
No-claim bonus will be reversed by 10 per cent in the event of any claim.

 

Our View

Co-pay clause acts as a limitation. Check the additional premium amount required to waive the co-pay clause. Otherwise look for a policy without co-pay clause. There are sub-limits on room rent and boarding expenses. If you are young and healthy, there are many policies available in the market without such clause.

Tata Mutual Fund

Being a part of the Tata group, the fund has the backing of a very trusted brand name with strong retail connect. While the current CEO has done an excellent job in leveraging the Tata brand name to AMC's advantage, it is ironic that this was just not capitalised on at the start. Incorporated in 1995, Tata Mutual Fund remained an 'also-ran' fund house for around eight years. Till March 2003, it had a little over Rs 1,000 crore in assets and 19 AMCs were ahead of it. But soon after that the equation changed. It was the fastest growing fund house in 2004 and 2005. During these two years, it aggressively launched six equity funds, two debt funds and one MIP. The fund house as of now stands at No. 8 in terms of asset size. This fund house has a lot to offer by way of choice. And, it also has a number of well performing schemes. Tata Pure Equity, Tata Equity PE and Tata Infrastructure are all good funds. It also has quite a few good debt funds. The funds of Tata AMC are known to...

UTI Mutual Fund

Even though only a few of UTI’s funds are great performers, this public sector fund house has many advantages that its rivals do not. It has a huge base of retail equity investors and a vast distribution network. As a business, it looks stronger than ever, especially in the aftermath of credit crunch. UTI is, by a large margin, the most profitable fund company in the country. This is not surprising, since managing equity funds is more profitable than debt. Its conservative approach and stable parentage is likely to make it look more attractive to investors in times to come. UTI’s big problem is the dragging performance that many of its equity funds suffer from. In recent times, the management has made a concerted effort to improve performance. However, these moves have coincided with a disastrous phase in the stock markets and that has made it impossible to judge whether the overhaul will eventually be a success. UTI’s top performers are a few index funds, some hybrid funds and its inf...

Salary planning Article

1. The salary (basic + DA) should be low. The rest should come by way of such allowances on which the employer pays FBT and you don't pay any tax thereon. 2. Interest paid on housing loan is deductible u/s 24 up to Rs 1.5 lakh (Rs 150,000) on self-occupied property and without any limit on a commercial or rented house. 3.

8 Investing Strategy

The stock market ‘meltdown’ witnessed since the start of 2005 (notwithstanding the recent marginal recovery) has once again brought to the forefront an inherent weakness existent in our markets. This is the fact that FIIs, indisputably and almost entirely, dominate the Indian stock market sentiments and consequently the market movements. In this article, we make an attempt to list down a few points that would aid an investor in mitigating the risks and curtailing the losses during times of volatility as large investors (read FIIs) enter and exit stocks. Read on Manage greed/fear: This is an important point, which every investor must keep in mind owing to its great influencing ability in equity investment decisions. This point simply means that in a bull run - control the greed factor, which could entice you, the investor, to compromise with your investment principles. By this we mean that while an investor could get lured into investing in penny and small-cap stocks owing to their eye-...

Debt Funds - Check The Expiry Date

This time we give you an insight into something that most debt fund investors would be unaware of, the Average Portfolio Maturity. As we all know, debt funds invest in bonds and securities. These instruments mature over a certain period of time, which is called maturity. The maturity is the length of time till the principal amount is returned to the security-holder or bond-holder. A debt fund invests in a number of such instruments and each of these instruments would be having different maturity times. Hence, the fund calculates a weighted average maturity, which would give a fair idea of the fund's maturity period. For example, if a fund owns three bonds of 2-year (Rs 30,000), 3-year (Rs 10,000) and 5-year (Rs 20,000) maturities, its weighted average maturity would be 3.17 years. What is the big deal about average maturity then, you may ask. Well, knowing a fund's average maturity is important because it tells you how sensitive a fund is to the change in interest rates. It is ...
