Rising Popularity of 2 Crore Term Insurance Coverage Amid Financial Considerations
Term insurance policies with coverage above 2 crore have grown from 24% to 34% of sales in FY26, driven by lower costs after GST exemption and increased awareness of adequate life cover. However, experts advise that the right coverage depends on individual financial needs, including loans, children's goals, and household expenses. The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) recommends linking the sum assured to the loss of future income to ensure sufficient financial support for dependents over multiple years.
