Life Insurance

In simple words life insurance is an insurance that guarantees a specific sum of money to a designated beneficiary upon the death of the insured or to the insured if he or she lives beyond a certain age.

Life insurance provides cash to your family and dependents after your death. This cash (known as the death benefit) replaces your income and can help your family meet many important financial needs like daily living expenses, mortgage payments and educational expenses. There is no income tax on life insurance benefits.

Life Insurance is not for the ones who die BUT for the loved ones we leave behind - L.I.F.E

Term insurance provides protection for a specific period of time and generally pays a benefit only if you die during the "term". Term periods typically range from one year to 30 years, with 20 years being the most common term.

This insurance coverage, lasts for the lifetime of the insured and the sum insured and other benefits are payable as stipulated in the contract. The insured also has the option for paying the premium for a few years, usually 10-15 years, and enjoy the cover for a lifetime.
