Asking for research purpose / relative .

After going thru various posts on DD i got few notes .

1. Get pure term , no riders , no return on premium .

2. Pay till 60 , get plan till 70 years ( 70-85 is stretch )

3. Never select limited pay .

Any more things to keep in mind ? what if person is businessman ? retirement age would be 65-70 years (if he is all good & sound)

All reputed companies are good like hdfc life , max , icici pru etc . 

Case - 39 years , non-smoker , 8L ITR .. no major noted illness .

iPRU iProtect Smart

cover till - 70

pay till 60

Half yearly premium - 21,898

Any more thing can be added ? substarcted ... all important suggestions are welcomed .

At last invest in SIP .

  • Take cover till that period, which you feel that post that age, you will not have any liabilities/dependents.

Term cover amount for 44k premium? Have you considered a home loan in this cover, or do you have separate insurance for that?

No loan or any liabilities .. home loan might come ... but can be avoided .

Why to even grt coverage till 70?

Term insurance should be to cover liability and sort of income protection (during income years..till 60).

Save premium and better use it for wealth creation .

^ Because looking at the trend 70 is good to go ... and it will leave good amount for dependents .. apart from original funds / property / wealth etc . 

every person has different outlook / way for wealth creation .. important is there should be wealth .

Stop believing everything you read on internet. Personal finance is personal so chose what suits you.

1. Some riders are good.

2. Doesn't it depend on your profession? A businessman works for 70 years easily. A salaried may work for 60 years. What if the salaried has debts or plans to take debts? Will insurance till 60 enough?

3. Why not?

Yes agree with you .. no one lies / decieve / miscommunicate on internet .. Internet is the words spoken by GODS .


Thats why we have forums like DD , where we can match suggestions given by different frieinds and reach to owns calculations .


Everyone has different looks of finance / debts etc .. at the end everything should be positive and good .. taht is the main goal .

And this whole term plan market looks very dirty .. can anyone explain why ?

Dirty as shit - makes me vomit after reading actualities . 

Why Govt is charging 18% GST on premium ? it should be zero or max 5 ... or GST should be on companies profit / commision .. not on peoples hard earned taxed money . 

why on earth first few years agents commison ranges from 30-70 % ... makes everything shady as hell .

First year commission is 31% for Agents

U can take agency code in your family members name

Online sales of term insurance is less than 1% in our company

Most of them comes from agents or banca channel

In my opinion 

Don't mix investment and insurance.

Investment is asset class.

Insurance is expenditure class.

Do both separately.

And don't fall for such plans.

Only mediators/agent make fortune out of commission they gonna get every year. Loss will be all yours .

Disclaimer:. No agent is intentionally harmed, just an opinion.

First buy health insurance for your family and parents, then decide whether you want to go with term insurance.

Option 1 and Option 2, decide yourself as either of two will work smile

what test values are ignored / have leeway .

Depends on person to person
Usually they do

  • Random blood sugar
  • Hbsag
  • Midstream urine analysis
  • Serum lipid profile
  • Hba1c
  • Hiv1&2
  • Complete hamegogram
  • Ecg
  • Urine cotinine
  • Biochemistry

They look for hba1c and cholesterol
If value is higher
They give counter off or reject proposal

Don't know about ICICI ITR requirements. I work for Max Life. We need 2 years ITR or credit card statement or bank statement or car insurance document for self employed. Icici is also good company but I don't know their premium.  3 year ITR or 7 lakh might be fine to get term insurance.

Post Section 45 of The Insurance Laws (Amendment) Act 2015, insurance companies cannot question a life insurance policy after three years. The insurer has no right to reject a life insurance claim on the grounds of misrepresentation or suppression of material facts or even if the insured commits suicide after three years. A claim can be refused only if the life insured is involved in criminal activity or commits fraud while submitting claim documents.

any insight on this point ?
