What is a Term Plan?
Term Insurance plan is a simple and pure risk cover form of life insurance. It provides financial protection to your family against a fixed premium paid for a specified term. You can get a large amount of term insurance cover (sum assured) at affordable premiums. The nominee receives the term insurance amount in case of death of the policyholder
When should I buy a term plan?
The earlier you buy a Term Plan, the better it is as the premiums are lower when you are young. Also, with current lifestyles and increasing instances of illnesses, it may become difficult to get a term plan later, as you grow older

Who should buy a term plan?
Parents
If you have children or dependent adult family members and are responsible for paying for their needs and upkeep then you must buy a term plan.
Young individuals
The premium for term insurance increases with age. So it makes smart sense for young professionals without financial liabilities to buy term plan early & this way they get lower premium rates and the rates will not increase over time.
Newly married couples
A term plan can help you create a financial safety net for your growing family so that their dreams are never compromised, even when you are not around.
Home loan repayment
In case of an unfortunate incident, the responsibility of paying the outstanding loans should not fall on your loved ones. In case of your unfortunate demise, the death benefit payout from the term plan can be used by your family to repay your loans.
How much term insurance cover do I need?
While it’s recommended that the life cover be 10 to 15 times your annual income, you also need to take into account your current expenses and the impact that inflation would have on your future expenses. If you are the sole breadwinner, you have dependent family members whom you need to always protect financially. Also, if you take a home loan or an education loan for your child, you need to ensure that, in case something happens to you, your family should not be burdened by loan EMIs. All these factors should be considered when choosing the ideal life cover amount. New age term insurance plans also give one the flexibility to decide how they want their loved ones to receive the life cover payout as a lumpsum, in the form of a monthly income or a combination of both.
What is limited pay option?
With the limited pay option, you can pay premiums for a specific pre-agreed period of time (5, 7, 10 or 15 years) and enjoy the term insurance cover for the whole policy duration, irrespective of the premium payment period. You can save up to 65%** over the entire policy duration with this option
Which payout option should I choose?
Before choosing the ideal payout option, you need to thoroughly evaluate your current lifestyle and the reality of your dependent family members. This will give you fair idea as to how the life cover amount needs to be paid out to your family which will not only take care of their financial needs but also ensure that they are able to manage huge sum of money (the life cover amount) without any hassle in your absence.
- Monthly Income : Your term life cover will be paid to your nominee as a monthly installment for a period of 10 years/20 years/30 years (chosen at inception). This option is ideal for those who want to ensure that the burden of outstanding liabilities and monthly household expenses does not befall their loved ones while also paying affordable premiums.
- Increasing Monthly Income : Your term life cover is paid out to the nominee in the form of a monthly income, which increases by 10% every year for 10 years. It has been designed to keep in mind that the financial needs of the family will keep increasing due to inflation, and they should be able to manage these without any burden.
- Lump-sum : Your entire term life cover amount is paid to your nominee in one go. This is the most preferred option for our online buyers. It can help your family possibly close the pending home loan EMIs. They can also use the huge sum of money (life cover amount) to further invest it in instruments that will ensure needs like sending children abroad for higher education, is taken care of, as such an amount invested as principal and can reap high returns thus fulfilling all your family’s dreams even in your absence.
- Lump-sum + Monthly Income : You can choose for your family to receive the life cover payout in 2 parts. In case of death of the policyholder, your family will get one installment as a lumpsum payout immediately and the rest in the form of monthly income for a period of 10 years/20 years/30 years (chosen at inception). This will ensure that the life cover amount can help the family with immediate needs (lumpsum) like loans as well as take care of day-to-day expenses (monthly income).

What is a Term Insurance calculator?
A term insurance plan offers you a life cover in exchange for a premium. This premium is directly proportional to the sum assured and tenure of your plan. A high sum assured and long tenure may result in a high premium and interfere with your budget. On the other hand, a low sum assured and short tenure may get you a low premium but may not be adequate for your family's future requirements.
Ascertaining the right premium, sum assured, and tenure can be confusing. But a term plan calculator can help you.
A term insurance calculator is an online tool that lets you calculate term insurance premium for your plan. You can use the term insurance calculator free of charge and understand the estimated premium amount of your desired plan. Using a term insurance calculator is simple and completely hassle-free. All you need to do is add a few details like your name, age, annual income, etc., and the calculator will calculate term insurance premium for you.
How does a term insurance calculator work?
A term insurance calculator is a tool designed to help you determine the appropriate coverage amount and premium cost for a term life insurance policy. Here's how it typically works:
- You provide basic personal information such as your age, gender and whether you are a Non-Resident Indian (NRI).
- You are asked about certain lifestyle factors, such as tobacco consumption, to determine your overall health, including any pre-existing medical conditions.
- The term insurance premium calculator requests details about your annual income.
- The term life insurance calculator assesses your occupation and educational qualifications to gauge the level of risk associated with your profession.
- Your location, including your pincode and city, can impact your premium. The term insurance plan calculator collects this information to generate an accurate quote for your plan.
- Once you have provided all the necessary information, the calculator will provide you with a quote, showing you the estimated premium for the specified coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to buy a term plan online?
Yes, you can purchase a term plan online with verified payment methods like UPI, debit or credit card, or net banking. As long as you select a reputable insurance company, you have nothing to worry about. In case of any issues, you can also reach out to the customer service team.
How is a term insurance plan different from other life insurance plans?
While traditional life insurance plans have both a protection and an investment component, term insurance plans are pure protection plans that don't give any payout on surviving the policy term. However, as compared to traditional life insurance plans, term plans have the advantage of providing large sum assured coverage at much more affordable rates.
Why should I buy a term plan?
In today's uncertain times, it is important to ensure your dependents are financially protected even if you are not around. Buying a term plan is a simple and cost-effective way to do this. With term insurance, you can get a large amount of life cover at a relatively low premium rate. You can get a ₹1 crore term insurance cover starting at just ₹460 per month2a, which is less than half the cost you would typically pay for an outing with your family. The benefit amount will be paid to the nominee in case of death of the policyholder during the term of the policy.
Do I need to buy term insurance even if I'm covered under my company's group policy?
Many companies today provide insurance cover for their employees. However, it is advisable to get an individual policy for yourself for the following reasons:
- Not enough cover - The cover provided by company's life insurance policy (generally ₹10-15 lakh) may not always be sufficient to sustain your family in case something happens to you.
- Will lose coverage if you change your job - This coverage is dependent on your job. If you leave the job, the insurance cover ends then and there, till you join a new job. The period between the end of the old job and the start of the new one would be without cover.
- Standard policy for all employees, not customized to your needs - The life insurance policies provided by your employer are standardized policies which are not customized according to your specific needs and don't generally contain any provisions for critical illness, terminal illness and disabilities.
Hence, even if you are covered under your company's group policy, you may still buy a separate term plan with a life cover that is at least 10-15 times your annual income to make sure your family is able to sustain their current standard of living and is adequately provided for in your absence.
How do I get a term plan online? You can get a term plan online by visiting the ICICI Prudential Life website and clicking on Term Insurance.
