Protect your family against uncertainty with Tata AIA's TROP plans!

Table of Content
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?
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.

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.
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
