Introduction
People invest in life insurance owing to a few key reasons, mainly
- Insurance creates financial provisions for the deceased's dependants.
- Insurance provides for the policyholder's old age after his
earning power diminishes. After all, interest rates may fall and
invested holdings may lose value and stop gaining dividends, but
the value of an insurance policy once set, never reduces.
- Insurance also provide a legally authorised way to reduce the
incidence of Income Tax.
With a view to promote savings and increase awareness regarding
insurance, the government has provided certain benefits through
the Income Tax Act for tax payers if they choose to opt for life
insurance policies.
If you plan for your future in a prudent manner, you can maximise
the returns on your insurance portfolio.
