Protection

First, life insurance helps you to protect your income and your family’s

financial future in case you are not around.

Saving

Second, life insurance works as a long term saving, thus giving you the

financial strength to achieve your life goals. It also gives you tax benefits.

Retirement

Third, life insurance makes sure that you have regular income after you

retire and also helps you maintain your standard of living.


Investment

Final, life insurance is a safe, long-term investment, free from the risk of

market swings. At the end of the term, you or your family can enjoy added

returns on investment.

Why Do I Need Life Insurance?

That’s a common question. Why would you need Insurance? Simply put, Life

brings with it many surprises, some pleasant and some not so and a Life Insurance

Plan ensures that you are better prepared to face uncertainties. How? In a number

of ways:

Protection

You need life insurance to be there and protect the people you love, making sure

that your family has a means to look after itself after you are gone. It is a

thoughtful business concept designed to protect the economic value of a human life

for the benefit of those financially dependent on him. That’s a good reason

.

Supposing you suffer an injury that keeps you from earning? Would you like to be

a financial burden on your family, already losing out on your salary? With a life

insurance policy, you are protected. Your family is protected.

Retirement


Life insurance makes sure that you have regular income after you retire and also

helps you maintain your standard of living. It can ensure that your post-retirement

years are spent in peace and comfort.

Savings and Investments

Insurance is a means to Save and Invest. Your periodic premiums are like Savings

and you are assured of a lump sum amount on maturity. A policy can come in

really handy at the time of your child’s education or marriage! Besides, it can be

used as supplemental retirement income!

Tax Benefits

Life insurance is one of the best tax saving options today. Your tax can be saved

twice on a life insurance policy-once when you pay your premiums and once when

you receive maturity benefits. Money saved is money earned!

Employee Benefits - a definite advantage for both employers and employees.

Most management follows an integrated method of arriving at compensation and

benefit plans for their employees. Life insurance, health and pension benefits are

viewed today as an important component of a company's remuneration structure.


Organizations wanting to attract and retain employees have given these benefits a

special place in their compensation structure.

Traditionally, medical insurance was offered as a critical part of employee

compensation. However, the new focus is to provide a comprehensive cover. It is

now possible to provide this through Group Life and Critical Illness insurance in

the most cost effective and efficient manner.

Further, emerging demographics pose concerns of disability and living too long,

making it necessary to address these issues during the earning years of life. To

design, administer and manage compensation and benefit package to meet all such

needs requires core competence and preparedness, which a life insurance company

can provide.

loyalty. Absence of a good gratuity funding mechanism can prove to be a financial

strain if you have to pay out huge amounts in any year. Having a group gratuity


plan enables you to meet your legal obligations of providing gratuity in a hassle

free manner. It not only helps you build healthy corpus, but also offers additional

insurance cover, to provide enhanced gratuity benefits in the event of unfortunate

death of your employee. This can be done in a tax efficient and hassle free manner

through this plan.

FAQS


1. What is life insurance?

Life insurance is a contract in which the insurer, in consideration of certain

payment to be made to it (called the premium), either in a lump sum or in any

other periodical payments, agrees to pay the assured, his nominee or any person

for whose benefit the policy is taken, a stated sum of money on the happening

of a particular event contingent on the duration of human life.

2. Why do you need life insurance?

Uncertainty of death is inherent in human life. It is this risk, which gives rise to

the necessity for some form of protection against the financial loss arising from

death. Insurance attempts to alleviate this uncertainty by providing financial

security should such an event happen and therefore provides for

1. family protection and/ or

2. provision for old age and/or

3. Investment options, depending on the nature of the insurance product.

3. What are the advantages of a life insurance policy?

Life insurance plan is said to be superior to an ordinary savings plan. Unlike

many other savings or investment plans, life insurance offers a combination of

three benefits viz., income protection, savings and investment options,

depending on the policy chosen. In the event of death, a life insurance policy

offers the full sum assured, whereas other savings/ investment plans would

make available only the accumulated savings with interests/ returns. Insurance

encourages and forces thrift: A savings deposit can be too easily withdrawn.

Many may not be able to resist the temptation of using the balance for some less

worthy purpose. On the other hand the payment of life insurance premiums

becomes a habit and comes to be viewed with the same seriousness as the

payment of interest on a mortgage. Thus, insurance in effect brings about

compulsory savings.

Ready marketability and suitability for quick borrowing: After the specified

initial period, if the policyholder finds himself unable to continue payment of

premiums he can surrender the policy for a cash sum, alternatively, he can tide

over a temporary difficulty by taking a loan on the sole security of the policy

without delay. Further, a life insurance policy is sometimes accepted as a

security for a commercial loan.

Tax relief: Subject to certain limits and conditions prescribed by the Income

Tax Act, 1961 (the “Income Tax Act”), a life insurance plan offers tax benefits

in the form of deductions from income/ rebate on income tax and also exempt

from tax the amounts received under a life insurance policy. When the tax relief

is taken into account it will be found that the assured is in effect paying a lower

premium for his insurance.

4. How much insurance cover do you need?

Answer to this question depends on various factors including (i) the reasons for

seeking insurance viz., as an income-protection, savings or investment tool, (ii)


income sources and amounts other than salary/earnings; (iii) whether or not the

individual is married and, if so, what is the spouse earning capacity; (iv) the

number of individuals who are financially dependent on the life to be insured;

(v) benefits to accrue from an employer-sponsored life insurance plan if

available; (vi) whether any special life insurance needs exist (e.g., mortgage

repayment, education fund, estate planning need); (vii) whether the life to be

insured has any other old-age or super-annuation benefits etc. Rough estimates

suggest an amount of life insurance equal to four to five times of ones annual

earnings.

5. When does the coverage on the policy begin?

Coverage under a life insurance policy begins once the proposal made to the life

insurance company is accepted and communicated and the person making the

proposal has paid the first premium. Most companies provide some temporary

conditional coverage during the application process assuming certain conditions

are met. This temporary coverage is limited in time and amount. The

availability, amount and conditions are described in the application and vary

from company to company. If you are replacing existing coverage, you should

never drop your existing coverage until your new policy has been approved, and

your first premium has been paid.

6. When could a person cover the lives of spouse and children?

There is no single guidance or rule for this. Initially, life insurance for

appropriate amounts should be effected on the family breadwinner(s). It is of


utmost importance that the income earning capacity of the primary breadwinner

be fully protected, if possible, through the purchase of the required amount of

life insurance before contemplating the purchase of life insurance on children or

on a non-wage earning spouse. In a dual-earning household, it is important to

protect the income earning capacity of both spouses. Life insurance on a non-

wage earning spouse is often recommended for the purpose of paying for

household services lost at this individuals death.

7. What is premium?

Premium is the consideration (price) payable periodically to the life insurance

company for the risk undertaken by it under the insurance policy

8. Who is a proposer?

The person who proposes to enter into a contract of insurance with a life

insurance company to insure himself or another life on whose life he has

insurable interest

9. Who is a life insured?

The person whose life is covered under the contract of insurance.

10.What is a claim?

Demand presented for payment of the benefit due under the terms of an

insurance policy .


11.What is lapse of policy?

The termination of policy caused by the policyholders failure to pay the

premiums within the stipulated period.

12.What is maturity date?

The date on which the policy comes to on end and on which the survival

benefits are payable.

13.What is maturity value?

The amount payable under a life insurance policy on its maturity date.

14.What is a life insurance policy?

A written document issued by a life insurance company to a policyholder,

which expresses the insurance contract between the company and the

policyholder.

15.Who is a policyholder?

A person that has entered into a contract of insurance with the insurance

company.

16.Can you have more than one insurance policy? Why would you need

multiple policies?


Yes. When one is purchasing an insurance policy to cover the entire risk, it

might be prudent to break the policy into smaller units. Though this increases

the cost of insurance, as the discount in premium for larger sum assured may

not be available, the benefit may offset this cost. Having multiple policies

allows you to discontinue some policies while continuing the others, in case

there is a financial crisis because of which you suddenly find yourself in a tight

spot. After the financial crisis is over, you may reactivate the other discontinued

policies, subject to the terms of those policies.

17.Are moneys payable under a life insurance policy free from attachment?

Section 60(1)(kb) of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 states that all moneys

payable under a policy of insurance on the life of the judgment debtor will be

free from attachment. This places an assigned policy outside the reach of the

creditors.

18.What is underwriting?

Underwriting is the process through which a life insurance company takes a

decision whether to accept the risk and if so at what rate of premium, after

considering relevant facts disclosed to it.

19.What is group insurance policy?

An insurance policy that provides coverage for a number of people under one

contract, called a master contract. In a Group insurance policy, the policy holder

is usually the employer who contributes premium which is a certain percentage

of the salary of the employees in the Employers organization. However, the

employees are the beneficiary in such Group insurance policies. In general, in a


group insurance policy the insurance company ordinarily –cannot turn down

any applicant that is a member of the defined group.

20.What are “with profit” policies?

Policies, where the policyholders receive bonuses, upon the insurance company

generating surplus and declaring them to the policyholder. Only a "with profit"

policy is eligible to bonus. The bonus that may be receivable may vary year to

year according to the surplus generated by the insurance company. ‘With profit’

policies are more popular because of the possibility of getting increasing bonus

every year even though the premium payable is higher than the premium paid in

‘without profit’ policies.

21.What is a paid up policy?

Once the premium on a life insurance policy for a specified period is paid in

full, the policy may not lapse even if no subsequent premiums are paid. Such

policies are known as paid-up policies. In such cases, the sum originally assured

is reduced to a sum bearing the same ratio to the sum originally assured as the

number of premiums actually paid to total number of premiums originally

stipulated as payable under the policy. By way of example, if 6 out of the

originally stipulated 30 premiums are paid, the sum assured under a paid-up

policy could still be 20 percent of the original sum assured by the policy.

22.What is a material fact?


A fact that would influence the judgment of a prudent insurer in deciding

whether to insure a particular risk, or the terms on which to insure it would be

considered material. Generally, all information required in the proposal form

are considered material and a non-disclosure or misrepresentation in relation to

such information sought could give rise to a right in favour of the insurance

company to repudiate the claim.

23.What is reinsurance?

The practice of insurance companies insuring the risk insured by them is called

reinsurance.

24.What is nomination?

Nomination is a right conferred on the holder of the policy of life insurance on

his own life to appoint a person or persons to receive the policy moneys in the

event of the policy becoming a claim by death.

25.Who is a nominee?

The person designated by the policyholder to receive the proceeds of an

insurance policy, upon the death of the insured.

26.Who can nominate?

Any policyholder, who is a major and the life insured under a policy can make a

Nomination. Nomination is not effective in a policy taken on the life of another

person.

27.When can nomination be done?


Nomination can be done at the inception of the policy itself. All that a

policyholder has to do is to provide the details of the nominee in the proposal

form. If a nomination was not done at the time of filing the proposal, it can be

done at a later date either by an endorsement made at the back of the policy

document or by making the endorsement of nomination on a piece of paper

pasted on the policy.

28.How can nomination be changed?

Subject to the provisions contained in Section 39 of the Insurance Act, 1938,

there are no restrictions on the policyholder regarding changing his nomination

at any point of time, any number of times. The life-assured is free to change or

cancel a nomination and make a fresh nomination any number of times during

the currency of the policy. Transfer or assignment of a policy (except when it is

made to an insurer in specified cases) automatically cancels a nomination.

29.What is successive nomination?

Successive nomination means that money should be paid to nominee A; failing

him, to nominee B; failing whom, to nominee C, etc. Such a nomination is

treated in favour of one individual in the order mentioned and is acceptable in

law.

30.What are the details to be provided about the nominee(s)?

The following precautions are necessary at the time of filling in the proposal:

Mention the Full Name, Address, age, relationship to yourself of the nominee.

31.What is transfer or assignment of a life insurance policy?


Transfer or Assignment is a method of transferring ones transferable interest in

a life insurance policy to another person or institution including as security for

repayment of loans.

32.What is the difference between nomination and assignment?

While the nomination is an authorization to receive the policy moneys in the

event of the death of the life assured, it does not give the nominee an absolute

right over the money received to the exclusion of other legal heirs. Further, the

Nomination can be revoked or cancelled at any time during the lifetime of the

policyholder at his will and pleasure or by a subsequent assignment. On the

other hand, assignment of an insurance policy is a transfer or assignment of all

rights and liabilities to the insurance policy in favour of the assignee.

33.How to make an assignment or transfer of a life insurance policy?

Assignment or transfer of a life insurance policy may be made by simply

making an endorsement to that effect in the policy document. Another way of

transferring or assigning the life insurance policy is by getting a separate

assignment deed executed. The former case is a preferred mode of assignment

as it is exempt from further stamp duty. An assignment should be signed by the

Assignor or his duly authorised agent specifically stating the fact of transfer or

assignment and attested by at least one witness.

34.What are the advantages of raising loans on an insurance policy?


One of the advantages of a life insurance policy is the facility of loan that it

offers in times of need. At a time when there is a dire necessity and no other

funds are available, it is best to go in for loan on your life insurance policy.

However, most policies stipulate a limit as to the amount that could be taken on

loan. Generally the limit is 90 percent of the available cash surrender value on

the policy. It is much easier and a more economical source of borrowing. And

above all, it does not hurt your self-esteem. It is after all your own money that

your are withdrawing

35.What are the tax benefits on purchasing policies?

Subject to certain limits and conditions prescribed by the Income Tax Act,

premiums paid to effect or to keep in force an insurance policy on the life of the

assesses or on the life of the wife or husband or any child (whether minor or

major) of the assessed irrespective of the status of the child, enjoys tax rebate

under section 88 of the income tax act. In the case of contribution to pension

funds, deduction is available under Section 80CCC of the Income Tax Act

36.Does a beneficiary on receipt of death benefits or when an individual

receives maturity benefits pay taxes?

Section 10(10D) of the Income-tax Act, 1961, provides total exemption on any

sum received under a life insurance policy, including the sum allocated by way

of bonus on such policy, other than any sum received under Sub-section (3) of

Section 80 DD or sub-section (3) of Section 80DDA, any sum received under a

Keyman Insurance Policy, or under a policy issued in respect of which the


premium payable for any of the years during the term of the policy exceeds

20% of the actual capital sum insured.

37.What does Add-on Benefits or Riders mean?

The additional benefits, over and above the benefits available under the

insurance policy that a policyholder may be entitled to at an extra cost are

called Add - on Benefits or Riders. One could opt for any one or more of the

benefits at a little extra cost. This additional protection for your loved ones

ensures that you receive a sum additional to the assured sum in case of any

untoward event in your life.

38.When are the benefits of the Life Insurance plan withheld?

Suicide: No benefits will be payable if death occurs due to suicide, within a

specified period from the date of commencement of risk. In addition benefits

under a life insurance policy may not be granted if the insurer has the right to

repudiate the claim

39.What is Survival Benefit?

Survival benefit is a benefit payable on survival of the life assured to a

particular pre-defined point of time in the insurance contract. For example, in

the Money-Back Policy, the life assured is paid a certain percentage of the sum

assured every few years. This survival benefit is payable only when the life

assured is alive. It does not matter if the life assured is suffering from any

illness or not. However, if the life assured dies, the benefit payable is Death

Benefit and not survival benefit.


40.What is the Death Benefit?

In the event of death during the plan term, your family would receive the full

sum assured.

41.What is Accidental Death Benefit?

This benefit is an ‘Add-on’ (Rider) benefit. When you opt for this benefit, the

amount payable in the unfortunate event of death due to accident, would be

substantially higher than the basic sum assured that may be payable in the case

of a policy that merely provides for death benefit. As an illustration, if a person

Mr. A has opted for Accidental Death Benefit along with the basic cover on life

dies in an accident, then his nominee would be paid an extra benefit called the

‘Accidental Death Benefit’ which is additional to the benefit receivable under

the basic policy

42.What is Accidental Death, Disability and Dismemberment Benefit?

If you want more than regular accident death protection, you can choose this

add-on benefit. A helping hand for the family, the assured sum would be

paid to you or to your beneficiary in the event of your death, disability or

dismemberment due to an accident. The percentage of the sum assured you

receive would depend on the extent of disability. This amount would be over

and above the basic assured sum. For instance, If Mr. A has opted for the

‘Accidental Death, Disability and Dismemberment Benefit’ then the life

assured will receive a certain percentage of the rider benefit if the life

assured has suffered on his earning capacity by loss of his limb, sight,

hearing capacity, speech, etc due to an accident. While the regular accident


43.death protection rider provides the assured certain increased sum after death,

it does not provide any benefit if the life assured survives an accident but

suffers from dismemberment or disability due to the accident. The rider in

“Accidental Death Disability and Dismemberment” covers situations, in

addition to covering Accidental Death, where the life assured survives an

accident but suffers from disability and/or dismemberment.

44.What is Waiver of Premiums benefit?

In the unfortunate case that you become totally disabled, thisadd on benefit

waives off all future premiums both on the basic cover and on all add-on

benefits during the disability period. All benefits of the original insurance plan

would remain valid until maturity, without your being required to continue to

pay the premiums for the base policy or the Add-ons.

45.What is term Benefit?

For a small additional premium, the amount received on death would be higher.

The additional sum assured could be upto the amount assured by the basic plan.

46.What does Accidental disability mean ?

A person who has opted for the ‘add-on’ benefit called ‘Accidental Death,

Disability and Dismemberment Benefit’, suffers from ‘Total and Permanent

Disability’ due to an accident, then he eligible for certain benefits under the

rider. A person would be said to be suffering from ‘Total and Permanent

Disability’ when the disability results from bodily injury caused by accident

within 180 days of the accident. Further the disability prevents the life assured


from engaging in any work continuously, completely and permanently.

Depending on the extent of disability, the life assured will receive a certain

percentage of the sum assured under this Rider.
