All of us have varied life goals at different points in time; whilst some of these goals revolve around professional aspirations, others find their roots in personal milestones. One of the most significant personal goals is having a child. Not only is this a life-altering decision, but also one with substantial financial implications. The easiest way to ensure that you are prepared to meet the expenses associated with child care is to save in a child insurance plan. 

What is a Child Insurance Plan?

As its name suggests, a child insurance plan is an insurance product specifically designed for children. Child life insurance plans in India comprise a combination of insurance and saving. By choosing such a plan, you can have life insurance coverage for your child as well as a systematic and productive tool to create a fund for them.

Child life insurance plans are offered by life insurance companies. As one of the leading life insurance companies in the country, we at Tata AIA offer a wide array of savings insurance plans that can serve as the conduit for your financial planning for your child.

You can decide how much you wish to invest on a periodical basis as well as the frequency of the investment. This way, you can build a substantial corpus that can be pivotal to your child's education and overall financial stability. Such a plan can also serve as a contingency fund for your child.

• Guaranteed¹ Income: We offer savings insurance plans with guaranteed¹ income. Once you have selected the plan most suited to your requirements, you can decide the sum you wish to contribute at the frequency determined by you.
  
  Once the accumulation phase of the plan is complete, the income phase begins. The ball is once again in your court: you can choose the frequency of the income, which can be either monthly or annual. This decision can be driven by your child's financial needs at different stages of life.
