Question

I want to know the Claim settlement ratio for HDFC Click2Protect plan, and understand practical scenarios wherein term life insurance claims get rejected from HDFC. I am 29 year old male, living in Pune, India, and am looking for a term insurance plan of Rs. 75 lakh for a period of 30 years. Do you feel other options could be better than HDFC Click2Protect? Thanks!

Dear Kaustubh,

Please understand that a High or a Good Claim Settlement ratio will not ensure that your claim will be admitted IF you have not filled your form correctly or IF you have not submitted corrects documents or IF you have misinterpresented or not disclosed some relevant information. Thus, keep your basics correct and take any term plan, and your family would be protected.

Splitting between 2 companies is always good as you should not keep all your eggs in one basket. But please do not forget to mention the first plan when you take the second one, else it would become non disclosure of material information and the underwriting might differ.

HDFC Click 2 Protect Term Plan is definitely a good plan. But you can condider other options as well.

LIC Jeevan Amulya Plan is a good plan, no doubt but it is an expensive option. Some cheap Term Plans that you can consider are:

iTerm Plan from Aegon Religare can be availed till 75 years of age and has 3 riders and is one of the cheapest in the industry

iLife Plan from Aviva Life Insurance
Bharti AXA e-Protect Plan
