Hello Sreekanth, I would like some advice on the below scenario please. I have a Bajaj Allianz Future Secure policy which has been in effect from 2008. I make a monthly payment of 2,500 and has around 4,25,000 in the portfolio. I also have 3 loans at the moment. I have a personal loan of 1,50,000 and loans on 2 LIC policies amounting to 3,50,000. I am wondering if it is a good idea to withdraw the Bajaj Allianz policy and repay the loans. I could invest in MF with the monthly EMI that currently pay on these loans. Please suggest.

Hi, May I know if you have any family member who is financially dependent on you? Kindly provide LIC plan names, commencement date and tenure.

My wife and 2 kids are dependent on me. The 2 LIC policies are:
  1. Jeevan Anand. Started in 2007 and premium paying term is 18 years. I took loan of 2,25,000 on this policy
  2. WholeLife policy. Started in 1995. All premiums have been paid. I took a loan of 1,25,000 on this policy

Hi, As you have dependents, suggest you to consider taking Term life insurance cover as your high priority action item. Read: https://www.relakhs.com/insurance-importance-life-health-accident-covers/ https://www.relakhs.com/best-online-term-insurance-plans-india/ Bajaj policy is an ULIP plan. The other two LIC plans are traditional life insurance plans.  Read: https://www.relakhs.com/term-insurance-plan-a-waste-of-money/ https://www.relakhs.com/traditional-life-insurance-plan/ Once you buy a term life cover, you can surrender Bajaj plan and clear off your loans, especially your Personal loan as it may have very high rate of interest.
