What are Term Insurance Plans? Term insurance plans are insurance plans which promise to pay the family of the insured a chosen amount in case of uneventful demise of the insured. The plan has no maturity benefit but is priced very low so that a common man can afford the cover at lower premiums. Why Term Insurance Plans? Term Insurance, being the basic insurance plan, is the cheapest plan in the market where by paying a minimal amount of premium one can avail a high coverage for protection purposes. Life is uncertain and everybody faces the risk of untimely death. On the death of a family member, the family suffers both emotional and financial loss. While emotional loss cannot be compensated, the financial loss suffered can be compensated considerably through insurance. Term insurance, at the same time, offers high coverage at lower costs thus making it affordable to have a high coverage. A high coverage ensures that the family is properly taken care of in the absence of the bread-winner without any financial hiccups.

Decreasing term life insurance, also known as mortgage life insurance, is a kind of insurance that you buy to cover your loans and mortgages. As a result, the value of your decreasing plan should be equal to the loan amount and the term of the policy should be similar to the loan repayment term. Since a decreasing term plan doesnt have a return component and the sum assured keeps decreasing throughout the policy period, it makes no sense to buy such a plan if you do not have a loan or a mortgage. These kinds of life insurance policies are also considerably cheaper and so it becomes easy for people from all walks of life to buy decreasing term life insurance plans.
