What is a Term Plan with Return of Premium (TROP)

A term plan with a return of premium (TROP) is a variant of term insurance. These plans offer a maturity benefit where you will be paid back all the premiums paid (minus GST) towards the term plan upon surviving the policy term.

Premiums for these plans will be slightly higher than basic term plans. Like pure-term plans, they also offer death benefits to your family in the event of your demise. In simple terms, TROPs are term plans that offer dual benefits under a single term insurance plan.

Also Read: What is Term Insurance?

How does a Term Plan with Return of Premium Work?

Term plans with return of premiums function similarly to pure term plans. The main distinction between a term plan and a term plan with a return of premium is the maturity benefit offered by TROPs.

Hence, term plans with a return of premiums will have:

Death Benefit

Paid to the policyholder's family upon their death during the policy's term.

Maturity Benefit

Paid to the policyholder when they survive the term plan's tenure.

Level Premiums

Premiums for TROPs will stay the same throughout the policy's duration but will be higher than pure term plan premiums.

Let us look at an example to see how TROPs work using Tata AIA's term plan with return of premium. .

Who should buy a Term Plan with Return of Premium?

1. Single or Unmarried Individuals

The amount of premium you pay always increases with age to cover the potential risk to life due to health conditions and illnesses. However, senior citizen term plans also offer higher coverage, which can help secure your family without the concerns of financial uncertainties.
2. Newlywed Couples

As a couple, you will notice that your financial obligations will have begun to increase. You must now account for your spouse, dependent parents/in-laws and any future children.
With a term plan with a return of premium, the death benefit ensures that all your loved ones will be protected in the event of your demise. The maturity benefit can help further boost your financial security.
3. Married and Have Kids

Once children come into the picture, there are always more responsibilities. Hence, investing in life solutions like term plans with a return of premium can help safeguard your spouse and children against any future financial emergencies. Moreover, the maturity benefit of survival can be used to pay for financial obligations like your child's higher education.
4. Senior Citizens and Retirees

If you are older or planning for retirement, a term plan with a money-back feature can be beneficial. It not only protects your family but also ensures that you have access to additional financial resources during your retirement.
5. NRIs

If you are an NRI with dependents, a term plan with a return of premium feature can help secure your loved ones back in India. As an NRI, you can also claim 5tax relief on your maturity proceeds under India's Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA), so you are not taxed twice on the same income – in your resident country and India.

Benefits of Term Plan with Return of Premium

A Term plan with a Return of Premium (TROP) offers life covers and, at the maturity date, allows the refunding of premiums with guaranteed returns to the investor, making it increasingly popular for ensuring financial security through guaranteed returns as well. It is one investment that will undoubtedly be recommended; here's why:

Life Cover at Maturity

Unlike a normal term plan, in which the premiums are non-refundable, TROP ensures that you get back all the premiums, paid if you survive the policy term.
This feature comes with financial security to your family and also acts as a risk-free savings option.

In case you die during the policy term, your nominee will receive the sum assured, thus ensuring that your family is financially stable.
The lump sum amount is utilized in paying loans, children's education, daily usage, and many other future needs.

Return of Premium Guaranteed

This is one more significant benefit offered by TROP, wherein, if you live through the end of the term, all those premiums you had paid for decades are returned.
It is like a zero loss investment for one who seeks pure insurance with investment returns.

Tax on Premium & Pay-out

You can also claim tax deductions up to ₹1.5 lakh per annum under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act.
The maturity payout comes tax-free under Section 10(10D), subject to conditions.

Flexibility to Add Riders

You can add riders such as critical illness cover, accidental death benefit, and waiver of premium to your coverage.
These add-ons offer further security against unexpected events.

Difference Between Pure Term Insurance and Term Plans with Return of Premium

Parameters	Pure Term Insurance Plan	Term Plan with Return of Premium
Definition	The simplest form of life insurance that offers pure risk coverage.	Variant of a term insurance that offers a return on total premiums paid on maturity.
Benefits	Death benefit only	Death benefit and maturity benefit
Premiums	Affordable	Higher than pure term plans
Ideal For	Those only looking for risk coverage and want an affordable life solution.	Those looking for a life solution that offers maturity benefits and can afford to pay higher premiums.

Why Should You Choose a Term Plan with Return of Premium Option?

Guaranteed Premiums Refund* on Maturity

A term plan with return of premiums offers a guaranteed lump sum pay out of all premiums paid on the policy maturity when you outlive your term policy. You can be eligible for a refund that is equal to 100% of the total premiums paid at the end of the policy term.

This ensures you and your family can benefit from the term insurance plan and the premiums paid over the policy tenure are not lost. T&C apply.

Save on Tax!

Just like regular term plans, term plans with money-back features offer tax⁴ benefits to policyholders and their nominees.

Under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, you can claim a deduction of up to ₹1.5 lakhs for the premiums paid towards the policy, while Section 10(10D) allows for a tax exemption on the death and maturity benefits offered by the TROP plan.

Life Cover and Death Benefits

Many term plans with a return of premium also offer whole life covers that ensure your family will have access to a financial support system in case of any such untoward misfortune.,

For example, at Tata AIA, we offer coverage for up to 100 years, along with a built-in ROP feature. This ensures your TROP policy offers sustained risk coverage if you are unsure of how long you will need term insurance coverage.

Enhance Risk Coverage with Riders**

The best term insurance with return of premium often comes with several add-on riders** you can choose from. These can help enhance the base coverage of your TROP plan.

For example, you can add a critical illness rider or a waiver of premium rider to your plan so that, in times of emergency, you do not have to compromise on your savings or premium payments and can easily claim the additional rider coverage.

Features of a Term Plan with Return of Premium

1. Dual Benefits

Our term plans with money-back features offer death and maturity benefits, ensuring both you and your family are covered under our plans. We also offer life stage benefits under our TROP plans, where you can increase your sum assured with each life stage, ensuring your loved ones are provided with enough financial assistance.
2. Policy Term

With Tata AIA's term plan with return of premium, you can get comprehensive life cover protection up to 100 years of age$. This ensures that you can claim coverage for as long as you require under our term plans while securing your family!.
3. Multiple Premium Payment Options

With Tata AIA, you can customise how and when you want to pay your premiums! We offer flexible premium payment frequencies like monthly/quarterly/half-yearly/annual and payment terms like single/limited/regular when you buy our TROP plans.

This ensures that you can chalk out your financial plans and pay your policy premiums right on time without disrupting your other financial commitments.
4. Paid-up Option for Non-Earning Investors

Our term plans with return of premiums come with a feature where your TROP plan automatically converts into a paid-up policy. This can be beneficial in case you must default on your premium payment due to external circumstances or financial issues. Simply put, your TROP policy will turn into a paid-up policy by default to prevent it from lapsing.
5. Add-On Riders**

We offer several optional riders** under our TROP plans. You can enhance your base term plan with return of premium to help you cover emergencies, like emergency medical expenses, without affecting your family's financial stability.

Remember that add-ons will increase your overall policy premiums. Hence, we advise you only to choose the riders** you need. To get accurate TROP policy quotes, use our term plan with return of premium calculator given below!

How to Choose the Best Term Insurance with Return of Premium?

Before purchasing, chart out the coverage amount that will keep your family comfortable in case of your sudden and untimely demise.

Check if the premiums you will pay are well within your budget so that you do not compromise on other expenses or skip any payments.

It is crucial that the claim settlement ratio of your insurance provider is high. It shows that they can undertake successful and timely claim settlements.

The term plan you select should allow for annual, half-yearly, quarterly, or monthly payments so that you find it easier to make the premium payments on time.

If you are aware of these simple tips before purchasing a term plan with a return of premiums, you will be able to find a policy that fulfils your needs properly.

1.What is the importance of term plans with return of premiums?
Term plans with return of premiums provide assured life cover protection to your family and maturity benefits. In the event of your demise, the sum assured under the term plan will offer financial support to your loved ones and if you survive, you will get a refund of all your policy premiums.

2.What is the catch with the term plans with a return of premium
Although they offer dual benefits, these are online paid in case of the policyholder's death or on their survival on maturity. You cannot claim any payment amount during the policy term. Moreover, you will only be offered one of the payments for either scenario, not both – a death benefit on death and a premium refund on survival.

We highly recommend going through the policy brochure, policy wordings and talking to your insurance agent before making any purchases.

3.Is term insurance with a return of premium worth buying?
If you can afford the higher premiums, term plans with a return of premiums are worth buying. Along with offering your family pure risk coverage, you are also refunded your premiums on survival so they are not lost on policy expiry.

You can always compare different policies and plan options before choosing the one as per your needs.

4.What are the eligibility criteria for a term plan with return of premium?
The eligibility criteria to buy a term plan with return of premium can vary according to the plan you select. However, the minimum eligible age for getting a term plan with return of premium is 18 years, while the maximum age for the same is dependent on the policy terms and conditions.

5.Which is the best term plan with return of premium?
The best term plan with return of premium would be the one that suits your insurance needs and provides adequate coverage to your family in case of an unforeseen misfortune. To select the best term insurance with return of premium, it is important to compare and contrast different plans with each other to ensure you are getting a good deal.

1.What factors affect premium rates for my term plan with return of premium?
The factors that affect your TROP premiums rate will be the same as they are for a pure term policy. These are:
● You age.
● Your medical history
● Your lifestyle (E.g., smoking, drinking, adventure sports).
●Your chosen policy tenure, sum assured and optional riders^**, if any.

2.How does smoking or drinking alcohol affect TROP plan premiums?
Like any other life insurance policy, your lifestyle habits like smoking will affect your term plan premiums, be it a pure term plan or a term plan with return on premium term insurance. This is because smokers incur a higher risk in their lives as compared to non-smokers.

3.What is the grace period for Tata AIA's term plan with return of premium?
Tata AIA's term plan with return of premium has a grace period of 30 days for annual, half-yearly and quarterly frequencies from the due date of the last paid premium, while the grace period for monthly frequency is 15 days from the due date of the last paid premium.

4.What is the premium payment frequency under a TROP?
With a Tata AIA term plan with return of premium, you can choose from the monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, annual and single premium payment frequencies.

5.What happens if one is unable to pay the premiums for their Tata AIA TROP policy?
If you are unable to pay the premium on your TROP until the end of the grace period, then your policy can be converted into a paid-up policy. Only once you pay all the unpaid premiums and revive your policy can the plan become valid again.

6.Can I determine my TROP policy cost before my purchase?
Yes, you can calculate your term insurance premiums online with a term insurance calculator before you compare and buy a policy that is not only affordable for you but also meets your needs.

7.Will a return of premium term insurance be more expensive?
Yes, since they offer a dual benefit, the premiums for TROP plans will be higher than pure term plan premiums.

8.What discounts can I get on my Tata AIA term plan with return of premium?
This will depend on the term policy you choose. Some general discounts and value-added services we offer are preferential rates for women and non-smokers, free annual health check-ups and medical teleconsultation services.

1.Can I opt for riders under a term plan with return of premium?
Yes, you can add riders** with your term plan with return of premium to increase your policy coverage depending on the rider options available under the policy.

2.How long should I keep my term plan with a return of premium?
You can choose your TROP policy tenure to be as long as you need. While most term plans offer coverage for 5 - 40 years, Tata AIA offers a whole life cover of up to 100 years.

3.What type of coverage is offered under a term plan with return of premium?
Like a regular term plan, you are offered pure risk coverage during the policy's term. The only difference here is that you also get survival benefits. All other general exclusions and inclusions for term plans will apply to term plans with return of premiums. E.g., suicide exclusion during the first policy year.

With Tata AIA's term plan with return of premium, you get term coverage and a 105% return of the total premiums* paid towards the policy on maturity.

4.Should I buy a regular term insurance plan or a term plan with return of premium?
Choosing between a term plan and a term plan with a return of premium will depend on your needs. A pure term plan is for those who only want extensive life cover protection from their policy with a death benefit.

However, if you want maturity benefits from your term plan, where the premiums paid on your life insurance will be returned to you on maturity, then a term plan with the premium return is a good choice.

1.What claims can I file under my term plan with return of premium?
You and your family can file two types of claims under a TROP policy: a death settlement claim and a maturity benefit claim. The death claim should be filed within 30 days of the policyholder's death and the maturity claim can only be filed once the policy ends.

2.What is the death benefit under return of premium term insurance plan?
Under a return of premium term insurance plan, the death benefit is the total sum assured of the policy that will be paid out to the nominee/nominees if the policyholder passes away during the policy term.

3.Can you get your money back from a term insurance plan on maturity?
If you buy a term insurance plan with a return of premium, you can receive a total of all the premiums paid at the end of the policy term if you survive the policy term. The same is not possible with a pure term plan that only offers a life cover with death benefits and no maturity benefits.
