I think this article is very biased and probably written by some agent of Kota/Metlife/ICICI I am 34 years old and plan to take a 50 lac cover next week. I was already in midst of comparing various premiums when I came across this article. As per the table and my requirement, KotakLife is supposed to offer the cheapest loan. However I have compared the premium to HDFC, ICIC, LIC, SBI and guess which is the most expensive?? KOTAK... SBI seems to be the cheapest... Any agent has a better plan can mail me on n_d@rediffmail.com

I agree partially with Nilesh. I did comparison before taking term plan. My age is 28. I found MetLife the cheapest interms of premium. Next is Max New York Life. MetLife and Max Newyork life premium rates includes all taxes service taxes while other comanies levy taxes on shown premium figure. so better clarify before purchase. MetLife is having very less branches in India. Difference b/n Metlife and Max new york life premium is marginal and MNY Life is having pan-india presence. Kotak / ICICI / Relaince / HDFC are costlier. LIC is also costlier. Shreyas Patel

I also agree with you what have mentioned is not perfect and this are not the cheapest plans.i would suggest when u go for term plan,dont just go through the cheapest premium,also get to know the claim settlement also.God forbid somethings happens the family have to face problems.It is not necessary cheap premium means claims settlements are good.See also claim settlement of this companies.Also get to know what are the additional features they offer.My mail id is rajivmenon_8@rediffmail.com
