LIC Jeevan Ankur Queries

Should you opt for the Jeevan Ankur policy?

Yes, because of the high risk, rider options to avail and the death benefit for the Life assured Jeevan Ankur is a good plan.

What about komal Jeevan and Jeevan Kishore plans?

Komal Jeevan is a Money Back policy for children, comparing to Jeevan Ankur, Jeevan Ankur is better as it gives High Risk cover and insures that the parent Life are Insured.

For Jeevan Kishore and other child Plan , the risk is started little later. Even the death benefit is not good as compared to Jeevan Ankur.

Also, the option for adding 3 riders, none of the plans have. Jeevan Ankur policy will never terminate if 3 years of Premium has been paid. Only the Sum Assured will reduce so you basically do not lose your money and yet the cover exists.

    • Tax Dost says:

      Sir, our observation is that all these child plans are waste of money. They offer return of around 7% maximum. You can higher return from PPF or mutual funds

  7. Rajesh says:

    I want to start investment for my son (5 month old). kindly suggest whether child plan is better or any other way to save money for his future

    awaiting reply

    • Tax Dost says:

      Dear Rajesh,
      I will not recommend any child plan. All these child Plans are marketing gimmicks, being used by these insurance companies to exploit emotional sentiments.

      I will recommend, to invest this amount in PPF. PPF gives assured tax free return @ 8.7% where all these child plans offer interest of around 6% -8% maximum.
