ULIP advantages: The three D's

- Double bonus:

The double benefit of insurance and life cover makes it a unique investment. This dual role helps not just the policyholder, but also its dependents especially in the case of untimely death - when a claim is paid to the nominee on the sum assured.

- De-taxable:

Let's not forget the tax benefit under section 80C as well as the exemption on all payouts under section 10D of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

- Durable and flexible:

A great long-term investment option as you have the choice to put in your money where you want, and where you see the potential for it to grow. Further, you will get a better return in case you wish to withdraw from it say five years down the line. The return will be much more than what you may have got in a savings bank account.

In the wake of Long-Term Capital Gains (LTCG) tax making a return from the financial year 2018-19, ULIPs - a complete package in itself -- can be your preferred choice of investment as there is no such tax levied on long-term capital gains under the investments in ULIPs. Thus, with your investment objective such as child education, marriage, buying a house -- in place, you can invest in a ULIP-based plan that can ensure your wealth grows at the time of maturity.
