ULIP POLICY surrender

662 views 2 replies
If the early Redemption amount of ULIP policy is less than the total premiums paid, is the difference eligible for LT capital loss?? Twelve years back when I and my wife turned 60, we were ill-advised, into buying ULIPs at that time. Having only income out of our savings investments, after 60, we now felt the need for extra funds and had to redeem our ULIPs. We feel cheated by so-called Big Insurance companies, since our paid premiums never grew.

Tax perspective : You cannot claim Capital gain / losses if there is a loss in ulip. 

 

Finance perspective : Sit with a financial planner to decide whether leaving it till maturity or redeeming it is good. 

Sorry to heard that sir. You should have planned your retirement plan. However, it was happened. Please check with your insurance provider before surrender your policy. Now days, Indian market is really good. Based on your Ulip maturity period. Now, You can withdrawal monthly basis. Please check then surrender it.

You can't avail LTCG on your investment loss on insurance. Maturity amount usually comes under tax free. 

ULIP withdrawals can be made only after a 5-year lock-in period with regular payment of all the SIP premiums during these years. Once applicable to partially withdraw a ULIP amount, the typical withdrawal limit is up to 10% of the total SIP premium amount, which may go up to a maximum of 20% of the total SIP premium.
