When the word "plans" comes to our minds, what is associated with that word? The term plans are something most talked about nowadays. The best way to back your future is a Savings plan. These plans are considered the best investment methods by experts.

So, what is a savings plan? And what is the best option for a Saving plan?

A savings plan is an insurance plan that helps an individual to gather and set aside a reserve pool for the future. They ensure returns when the policyholders need it the most. It is a systematic and disciplined plan.

Why do we need a Saving plan?

Age and term:

These plans are flexible and can be molded according to the age of the holder. For example, for a young person, the risk-taking factor may be high so that they may be suitable for unit-linked insurance plans (ULIPs) and those who can't afford risks like money back or endowment plans. The long term plan also allows securing a minimum amount during the policy term.

Life covers and provisions:

Some plans like ULIPs offer life insurance and another benefit of savings return. Other provisions provided by ULIPs are the protection of the holder and his family against any loss like accidental death, disability, and illness.

Options of investment:

They offer investment in tools like equities, including fixed interest securities, including corporate bonds, government securities, and money market instruments.

Saves tax:

Like most plans, Saving plans also offer tax benefits. According to section 80c of the Indian Tax Act, 1961, a policyholder can save up to 1.5 lakhs. Maturity and death benefits are also eligible for tax exemption under 10D of the Indian Income Tax Act, 1961.

Helps in meeting specific goals:

Some of these plans are designed towards meeting the goals of policyholders, like education goals for children.
