Tata AIA Maha Raksha Supreme Select is a non-linked, non-participating, pure risk individual term insurance plan from Tata AIA Life Insurance, and the upgraded successor to Maha Raksha Supreme. It pays your nominee the sum assured if you die during the policy term, and cover can run up to age 100. The plan offers four options: Life Secure is plain term cover, Life Secure Plus returns 100% of the premiums paid at maturity, and the two Joint Life options cover both spouses under one policy. A terminal illness diagnosis pays 50% of the base sum assured and waives all future premiums. An instant death payout of ₹3 lakh is available within one working day of claim registration on eligible policies. You can raise your cover at life milestones through the Life Stage and Top-Up options, defer premiums with Flexi Pay, and extend the policy term by renewing at maturity. The basic sum assured starts at ₹25 lakh with no upper limit, subject to underwriting.
Four plan options, joint-life cover for spouses under one policy, and a terminal illness benefit of 50% of the base sum assured.
Maha Raksha Supreme Select is aimed at buyers who want a large cover and the flexibility to grow it as life changes. Cover till age 100, the terminal illness benefit with premium waiver, the option to increase cover at milestones and the cover continuation option for a surviving spouse make it more customisable than a basic term plan. The ₹3 lakh instant payout is useful, but it applies only to eligible policies with an effective sum assured of ₹1 crore or more, only to non-early and non-investigation claims, so do not count on it for smaller covers. The return of premium options cost much more than plain Life Secure and give back only the premiums, with no interest, so most buyers are better off with Life Secure and investing the difference. Tata AIA lists four plan options, but not all of them may be open for purchase at a given time, so check the calculator before you plan around joint life or return of premium. Compare the final premium with Sampoorna Raksha Promise, since both are Tata AIA flagship term plans with similar structures.
