Does the term life insurance have age limits?

Can I buy term life insurance for my family?

Why should I buy term life insurance for my family?

In the event of your untimely death, or that of any of your family members’, term life insurance will offer a substantial payout to the nominee(s) to help them navigate through the loss of a loved one and sustain financial liabilities and needs. It is one of the most cost-effective ways to ensure substantial financial security for your loved ones in case of your death or that of a family member.

Can I have more than 1 term life insurance policies?

Yes you can have multiple term life insurance policies, and all of them will pay out if active at the time of your demise.

What are the advantages of buying term life insurance?

As your parents get older, there is the possibility of rising healthcare costs. There is always a chance that your existing health insurance cover may not meet their healthcare expenses. A super top-up can help enhance their existing health insurance cover (which they may have purchased in a personal capacity or may have obtained through your insurance plan) if they don't have any pre-existing conditions.

What are the factors that will affect my term life insurance premium payable?

Your age, gender and whether you smoke are three factors that will affect your premium. Results of your medical test (which if often a requirement before policy issuance) can also impact your premium.

What happens to my term life insurance if I leave my company?

As long as you are paying your premiums on time, your policy stays with you irrespective of where you work or whether you are employed. 

What if I want to upgrade, downgrade, or edit a term life insurance plan?

You will be given an opportunity to upgrade your cover only when you get married or when you have children. There is limited flexibility allowed during these occasions to upgrade your policy. Example: When you get married, you are eligible to upgrade your sum assured by up to 50%When you have children, you are eligible to upgrade your sum assured by up to 25%. On both these occasions, the upgrade is subject to a go-ahead from the insurer post medical test(s). Premium will also be increased accordingly. It is often preferred to go ahead and purchase an additional term life insurance policy instead of tweaking the existing one. You can hold multiple term life insurance policies in your name and all remain active as per term selected.

What if I entered incorrect details during the purchase?

Your date of birth, gender and whether you are a smoker or not - if entered   incorrectly can not be changed later. Premium calculated is as per these details.
You will have to cancel the ongoing policy and apply for a new one in such a scenario. It is recommended that you fill out details as per your government-issued IDs (eg. Aadhaar card).
