Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Can I claim any benefit under the Aegon Life iTerm Insurance Plan, if the Life Assured commits suicide?

Beneficiaries can claim up to 80% of the premiums paid if the Life Assured commits suicide within 12 months of policy inception or renewal.

2. What are the documents required to surrender an Aegon Life Term plan?

If you reside in a city where there are no existing branches of the company, you need 5 documents via courier to the Head Office. These are:

Original policy document
Self-attested Pan Card Copy
Cancelled Cheque
NEFT Form
Application Letter

3. What happens if I do not nominate a person to receive the benefits after my death or in case the nominee also dies at the same time?

An Open Title claim can be registered in such cases. The Claimant has to submit a Succession Certificate, which is issued by a competent court. If the company has accepted the claim but is waiting for the issued proof, it has the authority to hold the money till the proof is submitted.

4. I am 30 years old and my annual salary is around Rs. 5 lakh, how much of term insurance cover should I buy?

If you are around 30, you can work 30 years more. Your current annual salary is around Rs. 5 lakh, but you will get an increment every two years or so. Hence, you could look at a term insurance amount of Rs. 1 crore. Just keep the growing inflation rate in mind.

5. Is the Gender of the Insured Important while buying Term Insurance?

Yes. The average Indian woman lives longer than the average Indian man, therefore, the term life insurance premium for women is lower as compared to men of the same age.

6. What if the premium of my term insurance is not paid?

If the premium remains unpaid for more than a month after the due date (that is the 'grace period'), the plan will lapse. In such a situation, your beneficiary will not receive anything from the term life insurance policy and will be considered as 'lapsed'.

7. What happens to the due premium if the insured dies before paying it?

If the insured dies during the plan tenure (before he/she can pay the premium), the due premium will be deducted from the death benefit.

8. Are there no monetary benefits of investing in term insurance?

Apart from insuring your family, term insurance plans offer various tax benefits. Under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, you can claim a deduction of up to Rs 1.5 lakh on your policy premium. Even the amount that your loved ones get in your absence will be tax-free.

9. Can I buy 2 term insurance policies?

You can buy as many term insurance plans as you want to fulfil your insurance needs. You can even nominate different beneficiaries for both the insurance plans.

10. Can life insurance claims be rejected?

Yes, the insurer can reject a life insurance claim on grounds of-

Misrepresentation of actual information
Non-disclosure of correct information
Fraud
