Hi, May I know if you have adequate life insurance cover through a Term insurance plan? Have you invested in other investment options for your long term goals? Based on what you have come to know that both these plan provide exact returns (10.66%) ??

Hi, Kindly note that the above two plans are Life insurance plans only. These are traditional Endowment life insurance plans.  Generally these kind of plans give return on maturity of around 4 to 7%. Advisable to avoid such plans. The returns are highly dependent on bonus rates / additions.  Assuming your investment time-frame is long-term, you can opt for PPF a/c, in case your requirement is fixed return with low-risk profile. However,  the maximum amount which can be deposited every year in a PPF a/c is Rs. 1,50,000 only.
