Loan Protection

Clears home, personal and business loans instead of passing them on.

FAQs

Answers, in plain English.

The most common questions we hear — from first-time buyers to families reviewing existing cover.

See all 15 FAQs
What is term insurance and why do I need it?

Term insurance is a pure life-cover plan that pays a lump sum to your family if you pass away during the policy term. Because it has no investment component, premiums stay low and cover stays high — making it the most efficient way to protect your family's financial future.

How much life cover should I take?

A common guideline is 10 to 15 times your annual income, plus outstanding loans, minus existing cover. If you have dependent children, add a lakh estimate for future goals like education. Our Life Cover Calculator gives you a personalized number in under a minute.

What is the right age to buy term insurance?

As early as possible. Premiums are locked in based on your entry age, so buying in your 20s or early 30s can save you significantly over the policy term compared to buying the same cover later.

Until what age should my policy cover me?

Ideally until you retire or your major financial responsibilities end — typically age 60 to 65. Buying cover well beyond that period sharply increases premium without proportional benefit for most families.

Should I choose level cover or increasing cover?

Level cover keeps the sum assured constant and is the most cost-efficient choice for most people. Increasing cover suits those expecting rising responsibilities (young children, growing loans) but costs more.

What are riders and which ones should I consider?

Riders are optional add-ons like Accidental Death Benefit, Critical Illness, Waiver of Premium and Terminal Illness. We recommend riders based on your health profile, occupation and dependents — never as a default upsell.
