A term plan can give your family ₹1 Crore of protection for less than ₹20 per day. We compare LIC and leading private insurers to help you choose with complete confidence.
Life insurance isn't about death — it's about ensuring your family's financial security regardless of what happens to you.
Income replacement
If you're the primary earner, life insurance replaces your income so your family maintains their standard of living.
Loan repayment
Outstanding home, car, or personal loans become a family's burden. A term plan clears these at claim.
Child's education
Education costs are rising 10% annually. Child plans ensure education funds are available regardless of your health.
Tax efficiency
Premiums qualify for 80C deduction (up to ₹1.5L/year) and the death benefit is fully tax-free under 10(10D).

"NKT explained the difference between term and endowment in plain Hindi. I took a ₹1Cr term plan at ₹650/month — the best financial decision I've made. They even helped update my nominee details after my daughter was born."

Life insurance questions answered
Everything you need to know before buying a life insurance plan.
A common formula is 10–15× your annual income, plus outstanding loans (home, car, personal). For example, if you earn ₹10L/year with a ₹30L home loan, you'd want ₹1.3–1.8Cr of cover. We calculate this precisely based on your situation.
For pure protection, term wins every time — same cover at 5–10× lower premiums. Endowment is better if you want a forced savings component and guaranteed returns. Most financial advisors recommend term + separate investments over endowment for disciplined investors.
The earlier the better — premiums are lowest in your 20s and early 30s. Waiting until 40 can double or triple your premium for the same cover. If you have dependants, buy today.
LIC has an unmatched track record, government backing, and a 98.7% claim settlement ratio. Private insurers often offer competitive premiums for term plans and faster digital processing. We compare both and recommend based on your priority.
A nominee is the person who receives the death benefit if you pass away. Choosing the right nominee and updating it after major life events (marriage, children) is critical. We help you set this up correctly from day one.
Yes — there's no limit on the number of policies. You can supplement an existing LIC policy with a term plan from a private insurer. We'll check if your total cover is adequate relative to your income and liabilities.
Typically: identity proof (Aadhaar/PAN), age proof, income proof (salary slips or ITR), and a recent passport photo. Some plans require a medical checkup for higher sums assured above ₹50L.
Yes — death benefits received under life insurance are fully tax-free under Section 10(10D) of the Income Tax Act. Maturity proceeds are also tax-free if the annual premium is ≤10% of the sum assured.
