Star Senior Citizen Red Carpet

Objective

This is an online health policy for senior citizens that aims to cover hospitalisation expenses.

 

Suited for

This policy is suitable for senior citizens. Any individual between 60 and 69 years can buy this policy.

 

What does it do?

This policy covers inpatient hospitalisation, post hospitalisation and ambulance expenses. Each benefit is capped to 30 per cent of hospitalisation bill each time medical facilities are availed. The policy also covers pre-existing diseases from the very beginning of policy with co-payment.

 

Pros

This policy allows lifetime renewal. Policyholder is entitled to a 10 per cent discount on premium on producing certain medical reports to the satisfaction of the insurer.Pre-existing diseases are covered from the first day of policy inception with a co-payment clause. Premium paid under this policy qualifies for deduction under section 80D of Income Tax Act. This policy can be purchased online through company's website.

 

Cons

There is a co-payment clause for all admissible claims. Co-payment exists for treatment of pre-existing diseases as well.

 

Our View

There is no escape from sub-limits and co-pay clause because most of the senior citizen policies come wrapped with these. For a coverage without sub-limits, you need to spend more. This is a good policy providing coverage at reasonable rates. If you are looking for a senior citizen policy, you may go with this plan.

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

  1. What is a straddle? A strategy using Nifty options usually before a major event or when one is uncertain of market direction. 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. But, normally , those who sell or write options charge hefty premiums from buyers in the hope that fall in volatility would ensure the options end out-of-the-money, hurting buyers. 3.
