Term Insurance: The Unsung Hero of Financial Planning
Critical Information: 94% of Indian families are dangerously underinsured. Is your family at risk?
The Harsh Reality of Financial Protection in India
In a country where the average household saves diligently for the future, there's a glaring gap in financial planning that puts millions of families at risk. Term insurance, the most efficient and affordable form of life insurance, remains largely misunderstood and underutilized.
The Protection Gap
The average Indian household is insured for less than 10% of what they actually need. This means that in the event of an unexpected tragedy, most families are left with a fraction of the financial support required to maintain their lifestyle and achieve long-term goals.
The Misconception of Cost
Many believe that adequate life insurance is expensive. In reality, term insurance offers substantial coverage at a fraction of the cost of traditional policies. For instance, a 30-year-old non-smoking male can secure a 1 crore cover for as little as ₹700 per month.
The Illusion of Employer Coverage
Relying solely on employer-provided life insurance is a risky gamble. These policies often offer inadequate coverage and cease the moment you change jobs or retire, leaving you vulnerable precisely when you might need protection the most.
