As per the Indian IT Laws, any Tax Payer, who claims tax deductions under Sec 80C using life insurance policies, is expected to pay his/her insurance premium for a minimum period of 2 full years. For a single premium policy if the contract is terminated within two years of the commencement of insurance then the benefit already taken would have to be reversed. The consequence of not fulfilling the holding period is that there is no benefit for the current year for the premium paid and all the previous benefits are reversed with the amounts being considered as income

Where can one find out more information about universal life insurance rates?

Universal life insurance combines a life insurance policy with a tax deferred savings plan. These plans are offered by all major life insurance companies and the chartered banks' insurance divisions. Rates for these policies vary with age. They are expensive policies compared with traditional whole life policies, but for a person holding the policy a long time they will eventually pay more than the face value of the policy and should generate enough earnings to offset the premiums. Insurance companies and the chartered banks all have tables they can refer to to provide individualized universal life insurance rates.

What is nationalism in insurance?

I think you have misconstrued the word nationalism with nationalization. If it's the later, taking into consideration the case of India, the nationalisation of life insurance was conceptualised with the formation of 'Life Insurance Corporation of India' under the aegis of the Govt. of India which started functioning from Ist September, 1956.On late, from the year 2000 uptil now 23 private insurance cos. have entered the insurance arena. If your query is nationalism in insurance, obviously a sense of pride in the form of nationalism is always attached with a Govt. Owned Insurance Co. whether as an employee or a customer, holding its policies.

Who owns American income life insurance company?

Different people in different Places. Technically, Torchmark owns the company. But the policies are sold by different "agencies' which claim to be a part of the American Income Life Insurance company. Most legitimate insurance agencies either work directly for the company (i.e. New York Life, Aetna, or State Farm) or they work as Independent Underwriters who deal with a wide range of insurance companies to meet the needs of their individual clients. If the Holding company owns the Insurance company that owns the Agencies that own the Offices, what we have here is a Pyramid Scheme!
