ICICI Prudential Online Child Plan – It seems that insurance companies have started thinking beyond term plans for online platform.LIC was introduced Online Immediate Annuity purchase plan while ICICI Prudential is currently offering online Child Plan- ICICI Prudential Smart Kids….Don’t know exactly when it was started.But I think premium won’t be less in this case unlike to online term plans.
Hi…
I am single rightnow.. But returned offer by ICICI child care plan is Good. So Am I eligible to invest in the same fund even though I am Single.???
Please don’t confused by :
ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund – Child Care plan.
ICICI Prudential Life Insurance – Smard Kid Plan – mentioned ABove in post.
By the way,you are not eligible to apply for ICICI Pru Mutual Funds Child Care plan..
Child is the ultimate beneficiary of Child plans & having child is mandatory to apply for child plans.But there are similar balanced funds like HDFC Balanced,HDFC Prudence or SBI Magnum Balalced fund & provided by other mutual funds having similar returns.
