Objective

This plan increases the insurance protection every year by 5 per cent, on renewal.

What does it do?

This policy allows for an automatic increase in the sum assured by 5 per cent on each annual renewal, till the amount payable is twice the basic sum assured.

Pros

One can take this policy till 75 years of age.
This is an affordable policy with minimum annual premium being as low as Rs 2,000.
There are two optional riders which can cover accident related risks and critical illness.

Cons

Suited for

This plan can be taken by those who see bigger responsibilities at a later age. Also, one can take a increasing life cover to beat inflation.

SBI Magnum Global


SBI Magnum Global's timely foray into the consumption theme way back in 2009 has greatly helped the scheme in outperforming its peers and broader indices. The scheme returned 5% in the past one year, way ahead of its peers as the average gains by mid-cap schemes stood at –2.22% during the period. For the past three years too, Magnum Global gave healthy returns at 3.35% against –2.95% by the mid-cap schemes in the category. While continuing to be overweight on FMCG, the scheme is steadily but cautiously building up its stock of engineering scrips while being underweight on the financial sector. Some of its top-performing picks include Page Industries, Blue Dart Express and MRF among others.


Investors have often turned to mid-cap diversified equity schemes to maximise gains despite higher risk. Mid-cap funds invest in companies some of who have a wobbly business model or are promoted by individuals with a dodgy track record. A genuine but unexpected downturn in business conditions affect them more than the large cap companies. Managing a mid and small cap scheme is no child's play as these are vulnerable to market volatility and demand far more attention and prudence

Apollo Munich Optima Senior

Objective

This is a special health insurance policy designed to provide lifelong coverage to senior citizens.

 

Suited for

Anyone who fulfills the eligibility criteria can buy this policy.

 

What does it do?

Anyone proposing to buy this policy will be required to go through a medical check up. In certain cases mentioned, co-payment clause applies which means that total claim amount will be shared among policyholder and insurance company in a pre-specified ratio. Apart from hospitalization benefit, it also covers pre and post hospitalization expenses, domiciliary treatment, day care procedures, and hospitalization expenses of organ donor in case of transplant.

 

Pros

It offers lifelong renewal.
It offers a 5 per cent discount on premium on including spouse.
It allows 7.5 per cent discount for opting a 2-year policy.
The policy assures of no claim based premium loading.
There are no sub-limits on inpatient hospitalisation cover.
Premium paid under this policy enjoys a tax benefit under Section 80D.

 

Cons

Co-payment in certain cases acts as a limitation.

 

Our View

There is no escape from co-payment clause when looking a policy for a senior citizen. USP of the policy is that it assures of no claim based loading and it covers inpatient hospitalisation expenses without any sub-limits. This policy is a perfect balance between the benefits and cost. If you can afford the premiums, this is a recommended plan. But if you are looking for a cheaper policy, you would be required to compromise on the scope of cover as well.
