• Get a life cover now!• It is highly recommended that a person starts investing in an

insurance policy as soon as he is earning enough to meet the premium amount. Younger age commands lower premiums because of longer productive life, good health and the lesser risk associated with a young policyholder.

• That is why the best way to lower your term plan premium is to not delay the purchase of a term plan. The older you get, the costlier the premium. An average delay of 5 years in buying a term plan could cost you Rs. 1, 47,495 more than what you would pay to get insured today!

• Invest in Your Health• And we do not mean hospital bills here, but your insurance

premium. A fitter and a healthier person get affordable premiums to pay. Lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and blood pressure increases the premium amount quite significantly. Same is the case with habits like smoking and drinking that would demand more premiums since they are high risk factors.

• Pay on time• It is important that a policyholder makes timely

payment of premium. In case a policy holder does not make his/her payments on time, late payment fees can be added which increases the cost of the policy. A few companies may even request you to undergo a medical test. Just in case, the medical test reveals an adverse health condition, you may end up paying more than the regular premium. Another reason you should pay timely premiums is to avoid a defaulter tag which can ruin your financial standing when taking a policy in the future.

• If given some time and thought, a life insurance policy need not burn a hole in your pocket. The right information and research can save you thousands on premiums.
