Reliance Special Term Plan

Objective

The policy aims at providing financial support to a family in case of death of the policyholder. The policy returns premiums on survival at maturity.

What does it do?

This term insurance plan pays sum assured to the nominee in the event of death of life insured. It also refunds entire basic premiums paid on policyholder's survival at maturity.
The policy does not lapse but continues as paid-up one if premiums are not paid after first 3 years.
Policy can be surrendered after completing 3 policy years.

Pros

This plan refunds entire basic premium paid on maturity and also allows to surrender the policy.
Women can avail discount on premium and pay premium equal to 3 years younger male policyholder.
It offers riders to enhance coverage.
It has a higher policy reinstatement period of 3 years, in case of a lapse.
Premiums paid toward the policy qualify for tax benefit under Section 80C of Income Tax Act.

Cons

Single premium policy can be taken for a maximum of 15 years only which may not be an adequate term for everyone.

Suited for

This policy is suitable for those who cannot pay premiums for a simple term plan without any survival benefit. It refunds basic premiums if insured survives the policy term.

Our View

A pure term plan is a definite buy for everyone. Even though there is an option to surrender the policy, you should not do it and continue till end of the term. This saves you from paying higher premiums if you buy a new plan at later ages.
Single premium plan may prove to be expensive as compared to regular premium payment option as you lock in a large amount for a fixed cover. The reason we say this is because in case something goes wrong in early years of the policy, you have already paid a huge chunk of amount as premium to the insurance company.

Mutual Fund Review: Taurus Tax Shield

    Taurus Tax Shield has seen a turnaround in performance since 2007, but still remains a volatile offering… The fund has seen a turnaround in its performance since 2007 and has delivered impressively during market rallies since then. The portfolio is also more diversified. It contained its downfall to an average level in 2008 but is still one of the most volatile offerings in this category. Bold investors can look at this fund.   Strategy The fund manager invests across the market capitalisation and sectors. The selection of stocks is made on the basis of long-term business prospects and value creation. Fund Insight Launched in March 1996, the fund was a laggard with just two annual outperformances. Concentrated stock bets and high exposure to mid and small caps led to it being hit harder during market downturns. The number of stocks in the portfolio never exceeded 20 and it was not rare to see the top 5 holdings account for around 60 per cent of the portfolio. After b...

Use Mutual Fund SWPs for getting fixed payments

Invest In Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Buy Gold Mutual Funds Call 0 94 8300 8300 (India)   Investors time withdrawals optimally to save on tax The systematic withdrawal plan, or SWP, could be called the lesser known cousin of the much talked about and publicised systematic investment plan (SIP). There's yet another cousin — the Systematic Transfer Plan ( STP ). In SIP, you invest a fixed sum of money at regular intervals (monthly/ quarterly) to buy some units of a mutual fund scheme. In SWP, as the name suggests, you do the opposite: You redeem some mutual fund units from your portfolio to get a fixed sum of money at regular intervals (monthly/quarterly/half year/yearly). In SIP, you get a higher numbers of units when the markets are down, and lesser in a buoyant market. In SWP, going by the product logic, you redeem higher number of units when the markets are do...

Health insurance guide - Part I

Insurance, by definition, is morbid. What if I die suddenly? What if my home caught fire? What if I had to undergo expensive medical treatment? What if something that I thought happened only to others befell me? Insurers, who work with large samples, calculate the probability of such an event and, hence, the possibility of them having to pay out a sum of money to mitigate, to the extent possible, the effects of that disaster. However, the possibility of you undergoing some kind of expensive medical treatment during your lifetime is far more likely than you dying suddenly or your house burning down. Given that costs at private healthcare facilities, where you are most likely to land up, is high, and, doubling every four years 10 months or so, the rest of your money life could easily go out of whack if you had to incur such expenses. Just 12 per cent of India's population is covered with some sort of health insurance. Pared to the bone, for a comparatively small price, health insu...
