What should be the Insurance Amount
If your current annual income is 4 lakh then the insurance policy should provide a cover of Rs 24 lakh.
This calls for a pure-risk policy, which offers an extensive cover at minimal cost. Hybrid investment products, with moiney back option cost several times more for the same amount of risk cover.
A term plan is the best option when the purpose is life cover.

Are you Insured-Term Life Insurance
If you died tomorrow would your spouse or family have sufficient funds to pay the mortgage, pay off credit card debts or send the children to college?
Term life is a pure risk cover which provides a tax-free death benefit to your dependents in case of your early or unfortunate demise within the term of the policy. If you do not die within the term, the policy expires and you receive nothing.
Term plans are not the favourite of many of the life advisors because they get low commission on their sale. So they do not recommend the same to their clients .
The other reason why term plans are not favorite is because its very hard for most of us to grasp the concept of insurance as purely a death cover. We still want to get something back if we do not die during the policy term.
