ULIPs not only provide financial security to your family throughout the policy period, but also help you earn market linked returns over long term. A portion of the overall premium is invested in markets while the other is used to provide life insurance cover.
ULIPs are considered one of the best tax-saving instruments since they are EEE or Exempt-Exempt-Exempt. This means that you are eligible for tax deductions during the investment and earning stage, as well as during withdrawal. The premiums paid towards ULIPs are allowed for deduction from the taxable income as per prevailing income tax laws.
With ULIPs, you have the flexibility to choose fund according to your risk appetite. Most ULIPs come with a range of equity, debt and balanced funds to choose from, along with the opportunity to switch your funds as per your financial needs.
The real benefits of ULIPs are seen after staying invested in it for a long time, say 15-20 years. By staying invested for a longer duration, market fluctuations and charges deducted will be compensated, and a higher portion of the premium will be diverted into investment avenues which will enable you to reap maximum returns.
The charge structure, value of an investment and expected rate of returns, for the complete tenure of the policy are shared before you buy a product. It's always a good idea to understand the product you would be investing your hard-earned money into. Similarly, the annual account statement & quarterly investment portfolio along with the daily NAV reporting will ensure that you are aware of the status of your investment portfolio at all times.
In case of any unforeseen future events, ULIPs also let you do a partial withdrawal; wherein after the first 5 years, you can withdraw funds from your Unit Linked Insurance Plans.
ULIPs help you inculcate a regular saving habit, which goes a long way in building a corpus for future needs.
The premiums paid towards the policy are exempt from tax under section 80C. of income tax Act, 1961.
With ULIPs, you get the benefit of market-linked growth without actually participating in the stock market, not to mention the added benefit of life-cover.
