How Does a Rs. 5 Lakh Term Plan Work?

Mohit purchased a term plan in his early 30. He opted for a high sum assured and a long tenure of 30 years. In his 40s, he faced financial hardships and took a loan worth Rs. 5 lakhs. Mohit did not want his loved ones to face financial trouble if anything happened to him. So, he purchased a Rs. 5 lakh term plan for just ten years, which was the loan tenure. His loved ones will receive the amount if anything happens to him, enabling them to pay off the outstanding amount and quickly become debt-free.
