Kotak Assured Income Plan

Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online

Current open Infra Bond Application form


Kotak Assured Income is a 30-year savings cum protection plan, with a premium paying term of 15 years. As the name suggests, this plan guarantees payment of an annual income to the policyholder starting from the end of the 10th year until maturity, ie, for a period of 20 years. Apart from this guaranteed annual income, the plan will also pay a lumpsum amount on maturity that will be 104-110% of the basic sum assured

The annual tax-free income guaranteed by this plan ranges from about 9.1% to 10.10% per annum of the sum assured, depending upon the amount of annual premium paid by the policyholder. The sum assured (insurance cover) under this plan is 10 times the annual premium. Investors should, however, note that the assured income is payable annually only to the policyholder and not to the nominee.


Kotak Assured Income gives the policyholder the dual benefits of guaranteed annual returns and a lumpsum payment on maturity. This maturity benefit is determined by the age at entry as (110% - 0.1% × Age at Entry) × Sum Assured. Thus for an individual aged 30 years, the maturity benefit will be 107% × Sum Assured. Assuming 30 years as entry age, the returns that will accrue to an individual under this scheme are illustrated below.
   

The guaranteed annual income payable under the Kotak Assured Income Plan is definitely impressive and so is the maturity benefit, which is a percentage higher than the basic sum assured. In fact, after the 10th policy year, the annual assured income broadly compensates for the premium outgo. If one were to assess the total cumulative returns under this plan, they range from 91% to 108% (absolute gains over 30 years) depending upon the entry age and premium payable by the policyholder. A downside to the scheme, however, is that the annual assured income accrues only to the policyholder and not to the nominee. The nominee is entitled only to the basic sum assured, which is 10 times the annual premium, in the event of policyholder's death before maturity. Kotak Assured Income is thus an impressive savings plan, suitable for those who do not have major medical complications. Those seeking healthy insurance cover should rather opt for a term plan.

Mutual Fund Reivew: Birla Sun Life Asset Allocation Conservative

Birla Sun Life Asset Allocation Conservative has numbers on its side to prove its credibility… Don't be surprised to find this Fund of Funds ( FoF ) in our recommendations. It has earned its place. And despite the difference in the structure of the product, there is no arguing with the numbers.   Of the total 6 years of its existence, the fund has been among the top 10 funds in its category in four of them. Last year it put up an average show and the only year it underperformed its peers was in 2008.   One aspect to look at when investing in an FoF is the expense ratio. The expense ratio of an FoF is capped at a lower limit of 0.75 per cent (2.50% for an actively managed fund). However, the FoF not only has its own expense (though lower) but even the expense ratio of the fund it is investing into. Fortunately, the fund manager takes that into account. "Expense is one of the important criteria used for fund selection and is the main reason for our investment in BSL Ind...

Short-Term Investment Options in Mutual Funds

Mutual funds offer liquid funds and ultra short term funds in the debt category, which are suitable for short investment periods. Ultra short-term funds were earlier known as liquid plus funds. Liquid funds invest in money market instruments with a maturity of 91 days or less. However, there are no such restrictions for ultra short-term funds. Who should invest in these? These are open-ended schemes. Investors with a short investment horizon or with surplus cash and low risk appetite should look at these. These could include corporate as well as retail investors. Those interested in staying invested for less than 15 days can opt for liquid funds. Retail investors who want to remain invested for two-four months, can look at ultra short-term funds. The short duration for both liquid and ultra short-term funds shields them from any interest rate volatility.   What kind of returns do they offer? In terms of an investment period less than 15 days, these funds are comparable to a ba...
