SBI Life Saral Shield -Level Term Assurance Plan

Objective

This is a simple term plan that aims to provide financial respite in the unfortunate event of death of the policyholder.

What does it do?

This term insurance policy pays sum assured to the family on demise of the insured member. This plan also provides an option to surrender the policy however there is no survival or maturity value. Surrender value will be calculated on the basis of a predefined formula.

Pros

Women get a special discount of 3 per cent on premium.
The plan offers riders to enhance the scope of protection.
The plan offers rebates for opting sum assured higher than Rs 15 lakh.
Premiums paid towards this policy qualify for tax deduction under Section 80C of Income Tax Act.

Cons

Riders can be bought only at the time of purchasing the policy and not during the policy term.

Suited for

A pure term insurance policy is recommended for everyone looking after dependents.

Our View

Accidental total and permanent disability rider is useful as it covers disability. Disability is burdensome condition when the insured loses a regular income while the medical expenses are unavoidable.
Opt for regular premium payment mode over single premium payment as single premium plan may prove to be expensive because 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.

Buy Group Health Insurance Online   For Human Resources, the biggest challenge today is to decide whether medical benefits should be offered to employees or not, what type of plans should be offered, what will be the cost and how will the cost be split between employees and employer.

Lump Sum or SIP?

Invest Mutual Fund Online     You have a lump sum in hand and you wish to invest in equity funds. However, you have heard a lot of talk about investing in equity funds through Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) because they help average costs, ensure you do not ill-time the market, and help you invest in small sums, besides giving you many other advantages. So, should you invest the money you have in hand in one go, or let it remain in your bank account and then do an SIP? There is no harm in investing a lump sum amount. For all you know, compounding, over the long term, could work better with lump sum. However, make sure you fulfill all of these three criteria if you want to invest in one go. Else, SIP is the way to go. #1: You invest for the long term According to past data, ideally, if you have a time frame of 12 years or more, you can consider lump sum investing (provided you satisfy the other two conditions that follow). So, what is the sanctity behind 12 years? Is it because only...
