how much term insurance cover do I need for my family in India: what buyers discover

See which brands AI assistants put in front of buyers and why those answers are chosen.

The AI answer we saw

A common rule of thumb is to choose a sum assured of at least 10–15 times your annual income. For example, if you earn ₹8 LPA, a cover of ₹80 lakh to ₹1.2 crore is recommended. You should also factor in outstanding liabilities (home loan, car loan), future expenses (children's education, marriage), and your family's monthly living expenses for 10–15 years. Online human life value (HLV) calculators offered by insurers like LIC, HDFC Life, and Max Life can help you arrive at a more personalized coverage amount.
