What is Child Endowment Policy?

The life insurance product known as a child endowment policy functions to create financial support for youngsters. As an endowment insurance plan, it helps customers build savings over time.. The insurance policy enables your child to obtain funds that they can use toward education expenses or wedding expenses and starting their career.

Here’s how it works:

  • You choose a policy term (for example, 15 or 20 years).
  • You pay a fixed premium every month/quarter/bi annually/yearly.
  • The insurance company builds a savings fund over time.
  • At the end of the policy, your child receives the money.
  • If the parent dies during the term, the child still gets full benefits.

This kind of policy is not just about life cover. It also helps in creating a habit of saving money regularly.

Features of Child Endowment Policy

A child endowment plan offers many useful features. It is designed to make sure your child has the financial support they need at the right time.

Here are the main features:

  1. Future Financial Support

    • Provides a lump sum amount or regular payouts when the child turns 18 or 21.
    • Helps with school, college, or marriage expenses.

  2. Life Cover

    • Offers life insurance cover to the parent or the child depending on the plan.
    • If the parent dies, the policy continues without paying future premiums (in some plans).

  3. Early Start, Better Savings

    • Starting the plan early allows your savings to grow over time.
    • Compounding helps in building a bigger amount for your child.

  4. Tax Benefits

    • Premiums paid qualify for tax deduction under Section 80C up to ₹1.5 lakh/year (under old tax regime).
    • Payouts are often tax-free under Section 10(10D), subject to conditions.
    • Deductions under Section 80D and 80DD also apply in special cases like health or disability coverage for the child.

  5. Flexible Premium Payment Options

    • Pay premiums monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, yearly, or one-time.
    • Choose a payment term that fits your budget.

  6. Bonuses and Additions

    • Some policies offer yearly bonuses, if declared by an insurance company.
    • Final bonuses may also be given at the time of maturity.

  7. Loan Facility

    • Some plans allow loans against the policy after a certain period.
    • Useful for urgent educational or health needs.

These features make a children's endowment policy a great option to secure a child’s future and bring peace of mind to parents.

When Is the Right Time to Invest in a Child Endowment Plan?

Buying a child endowment policy at the right time can give better benefits. The earlier you start, the better your savings grow.

Here are some ideal times to buy:

  1. Just After the Child's Birth

    • Starting early means more years to save and grow your money.
    • You can plan ahead for school and college expenses.

  2. When Planning Future Expenses

    • If you are setting financial goals like higher education or wedding.
    • These events need large funds that can be planned in advance.

  3. When You Have a Steady Income

    • Regular income makes it easier to pay premiums.
    • Helps in building a disciplined savings habit.

  4. When You Want Tax Benefits

    Buying a child endowment plan early allows you to take advantage of tax savings under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act under old tax regime. The premiums you pay for the policy are eligible for tax deductions up to ₹1.5 lakh per year. This means you can reduce your taxable income, leading to lower taxes every year. Starting early helps you maximize these savings over the long term.


  5. When You Want to Avoid Financial Stress Later

    • Planning early reduces last-minute borrowing or taking loans.

What Mistakes Should You Avoid When Choosing a Child Endowment Plan?

Any parent needs to make a substantial decision when they buy a child endowment policy. The purpose of child endowment policies helps parents construct a secure and prosperous financial future for their children. A selection error regarding the insurance plan during the purchase phase can develop into future complications. Selecting a policy incorrectly may deprive your child both essential plan benefits and inadequate coverage of their actual requirements.

Here are some of the most common mistakes parents make—and how to avoid them:

  1. Delaying the Decision

    Waiting too long to buy a plan can reduce your benefits.

    • The earlier you start, the more your money grows with time.
    • Early plans come with lower premiums and more savings.
    • Delaying means you pay more but get less in return.
      So, it’s always better to buy a children life endowment policy as soon as your child is born or in their early years.

  2. Choosing the Wrong Policy Term

    The policy term means the number of years you plan to save.

    • If the term ends too early, you may not have enough money when your child needs it most—like for college or marriage.
    • If it ends too late, you may not be able to use the money when needed.
      The policy term means the number of years you plan to save.

       

      Always plan the term based on your child’s current age. For example, if your child is 5 years old and you want funds by age 18, a 13-year term works best.


  3. Ignoring Bonuses and Extra Benefits

    Some policies offer yearly bonuses, if declared, that add extra money to your savings.

    • These bonuses depend on how the insurance company performs.
    • They help grow your final payout.
      If you ignore this feature, you may miss out on better returns. Always check if the plan gives regular and final bonuses.

  4. Not Checking for Waiver of Premium Option

    • This is an important feature in case the parent dies during the policy term.
    •  Not all plans have this. So, make sure to look for it while choosing your endowment insurance plan.


  5. Believing in Common Myths

    Many people think endowment policies only pay for education. That’s not true.

    • These policies can help with marriage, buying a house, or starting a business too.
    • Another myth is that the plan stops if the parent dies. Most good plans continue and give full benefits to the child.
      So, don’t let these myths stop you from buying the right policy.

     


  6. Not Comparing Different Plans

    There are many policies in the market.

    • Don’t buy the first plan you see.
    • Compare sum assured, maturity benefits, and premium amounts. This helps you choose a plan that gives you more value for your money.

  7. Choosing a Plan Without Flexibility

    Life can bring unexpected needs.

    • A good ULIP based endowment plan should allow partial withdrawals.
    • Some also offer loan options.
      This helps in case of emergency expenses like hospital bills or school fees.
      Pick a plan that gives you the freedom to use your money when needed.

Summary

A child endowment policy is a smart and simple way to support your child’s future. It offers financial help for education, marriage, and other important milestones. With features like life cover, savings, bonuses, and tax benefits, it offers both peace of mind and value for money.

Making an early choice of appropriate plan enables you to establish regular savings that build your child's financial foundation. Your child receives dream protection by insurance coverage that continues even if you pass away prematurely.           

You should avoid typical mistakes when selecting a policy by not postponing your purchase and by not understanding benefits or waiver options. Complete your review by reading all terms along with plan comparison until you pick a solution matching your objectives.

In short, a children's endowment policy is not just an insurance product. It is a gift of financial security for your child.
