New India Assurance Critical Illness plan is a PSU-backed option offering basic CI cover for 11 illnesses at the most affordable premium in the market.
New India Assurance Critical Illness Insurance offers a lump sum benefit payable on diagnosis of a covered serious illness, from a public sector insurer with one of the longest operating histories in the Indian general insurance industry. The plan typically lists major conditions such as cancer, heart attack, stroke, kidney failure, paralysis, and organ transplant, with the payout made as a single amount that policyholders can use as they see fit, whether for treatment, income replacement, or other financial obligations during recovery. New India Assurance's extensive branch presence across the country, including in smaller towns and cities, makes policy servicing accessible to a wide base of customers. The plan carries a standard waiting period from policy commencement and a survival period requirement common across critical illness products before a claim is processed. Premiums paid are eligible for deduction under Section 80D of the Income Tax Act. This plan appeals to policyholders who value the stability of a long-established public sector insurer alongside dedicated financial protection against critical illness.
