Available riders can enhance the scope of the cover.

Cons

The minimum sum assured of Rs 25 lakh may be a deterrent for some.

Our View

A pure risk term plan is a definite buy for everyone. You need to check if your needs such as policy term, sum assured, premium payment options matches with those offered by the policy. You may take an online policy if you are young and can manage online purchases. An online policy is cheaper as compared to offline plans.
