I am 30 and looking for a term insurance for a term of 40 years. Which company offers the best term plan in terms of lower premium and best cover? Could you kindly suggest one?

Ans: One cannot recommend a specific term insurance plan or company as it depends on various factors like your health condition, lifestyle habits (smoking/drinking), income, budget, and family situation. However, here’s a guide on how to choose the best term plan.

Here are some key factors to consider when choosing a term insurance plan:

• Sum assured: This is the amount your beneficiary will receive in case of your death during the policy term. Choose a sum assured that is sufficient to cover your outstanding debts, living expenses for your family, and future financial goals of your dependents.
• Policy term: This is the duration for which the life cover is valid. Since you are 30 and looking for a 40-year term, you have a wide range of options to choose from.
• Premium amount: This is the amount you pay annually or monthly to maintain the policy. Generally, younger individuals have lower premiums compared to older individuals.
• Riders: These are additional benefits that can be attached to your base plan, like accidental death benefit, critical illness cover, and waiver of premium rider. Choose riders that suit your specific needs and budget.
• Claim settlement ratio: This ratio indicates the percentage of claims settled by the insurance company. Opt for a company with a high claim settlement ratio.

Popular insurance companies often change, and new products may be introduced, so it's essential to check the latest offerings. Additionally, individual factors such as your health, lifestyle, and occupation can affect premium rates. Make sure to disclose all relevant information accurately to get the most suitable coverage.

Remember, it's crucial to disclose all your health conditions and lifestyle habits accurately while applying for term insurance. Withholding information can lead to claim rejection in the future.

Remember that buying ‘best’ term insurance plan is subjective and depends on your specific needs and circumstances.

Ans: Hello.
Have you analyzed your failure in 2 successive attempts in the NEET examination? If yes, then the question is what you have done for improvement and not then again the question arises why not? Here, I would like to suggest you focus now only on the NEET examination which is your 3rd attempt. Don't think about any other options right now till May 2025. After the NEET exam is over, you have ample time to explore the options available. Depending on your score in NEET 2025, we will guide you at that time. But yet, if you are confused, then looking towards your question and anxiety, you need personal counseling where you can express yourself face-to-face. Only after the NEET exam is over, you contact a counsellor for one-to-one counseling. Till then, keep mum and focus only on NEET. Take this exam as your mission and project. Work on this project, apply forces from all sides, success is there which is waiting for you eagerly.
Best of luck for your bright future.

Some tips: (1) Analyse separately Phy, Che, Bio (2) Prepare a list of hard topics (3) First focus more on the topics which are easy for you and then try to excel in hard topics (4) Appear more and more online/offline examinations (4) Prepare your short-cut file for all subjects (5) Prepare a file for each subject having only synopsis of all chapters (6) Try to solve the problems at the lightening speed and observe the period on regular basis (7) Create your time table to revise the topics on regular basis (8) Do not hesitate to ask your difficulties to your teachers, if you have joined to offline classes (9) Keep the habit of marking the answers which you know 100%. Don't guess the answers and mark them, as there is -ve marking scheme. (10) Be calm, quite, and smiling all the time to release the tension and always have a healthy chat with your friends.
