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: Religare Tax Plan

Tax Plan is one of the better performing schemes from Religare Asset Management. Existing investors can redeem their investment after three years. But given the scheme's performance, they can continue to stay invested   Given the mandated lock-in period of three years, tax saving schemes give the fund manager the leeway to invest in ideas that may take time to nurture. Religare Tax Plan's investment ideas revolve around 'High Growth', which the fund manager has aimed to achieve by digging out promising stories/businesses in the mid-cap segment. Within the space, consumer staples has been the centre of attention for the last couple of years and can be seen as one of the key reasons for the scheme's outperformance as compared to the broader market. It has, however, tweaked its focus and reduced exposure in midcaps as they were commanding a high premium. The strategy seems to have worked as it returned a 22% gain last year. Religare Tax Plan has outperformed BSE 100...

Nifty F&O

Comprises purchase of a Nifty call and put option of the same strike price. Usually strikes are purchased closer to the level of the underlying index. 2. What is better ­ buying or selling a straddle? It depends.Implied volatili ty of options, or near-term expectations of price swings in an un derlier like Nifty , usually peaks before an event and falls when the outcome plays out ­ like Infy re sults in past years. However, once the event plays out, a sharp rise or fall in Nifty could result in price of the straddle rising ­ benefiting buy ers.
