How do insurance planning calculators work?
Our insurance planning calculator uses the following approach:
Total Coverage = (Annual Income × Years of Coverage) + Outstanding Liabilities + Emergency Fund
Where:
• Years of Coverage = Time until retirement or financial independence
• Outstanding Liabilities = Home loan, car loan, personal loans
• Emergency Fund = 6-12 months of living expenses
• Additional Coverage = Total Coverage - Existing Coverage
Types of insurance coverage:
- Life Insurance: Financial protection for family in case of death
- Health Insurance: Coverage for medical expenses and hospitalization
- Term Insurance: Pure life cover for specific period
- Endowment Policy: Life cover with savings component
- ULIP: Unit-linked insurance plans with investment benefits
- Critical Illness: Coverage for specific serious diseases
