What is Term Insurance for Self-Employed?

Term insurance for a self-employed individual is a type of life insurance that helps protect people who do not have a salaried income. These individuals work for themselves or run their own businesses. However, if the life assured passes away during the policy tenure, the death benefit is given to the nominee.

It provides financial support to the nominee in case of the demise of the life assured . It ensures their family can pay bills if the primary earner is not present anymore. However, no payment will be paid if the person outlives the policy tenure.

Why should Self-employed Individuals Buy Term Insurance?

Here are some reasons that make term insurance plans a suitable choice for self-employed individuals:

Financial Protection

Term insurance plans provide coverage against the risk of premature demise. If the life assured dies during the policy tenure, a death benefit is paid. This benefit can help the family care for their financial needs even when the breadwinner is not around. This provides financial protection to the family against the risk of the unforeseen demise of the life assured.

Suitable Coverage

Term insurance plans allow optimal sum assured levels, allowing you to get complete financial protection against the risk of demise. You can choose coverage that is optimal for your financial needs.

Moreover, term plans offer long-term tenure options for maximum coverage. You can also choose the whole life option, which is available under many plans and gets covered till 99 or 100 years of age.

Affordable

Term insurance plans are affordable. The premiums are pocket-friendly, allowing you to enjoy the coverage without burning a hole in your pockets. Moreover, term plans offer flexible premium payment tenures. You can choose to pay the premium throughout the policy tenure (regular premiums), for a limited period (limited premium) or in one lump sum (single premium). You can also choose a suitable premium payment frequency, as term plans allow monthly, quarterly, half-yearly and annual premium payments.

Business continuity

As a business owner, your business continuity depends on you. In the case of your premature demise, if the financial needs of your business are not adequately met, it might shut down, even though it is profitable. With its death benefit, a term insurance plan can offer financial assistance that can help with business continuity. In your absence, your family can take up the reins of your business and continue to run it. The funds required to run the business can be sourced from the benefits the term insurance plans have paid.

Tax benefits

Like other life insurance plans, term insurance plans also offer tax benefits that help reduce your tax liability. Here are the benefits that you can get -

If you buy the policy on or after 1st April 2012, the premiums paid, up to 10% of the capital sum assured, would qualify as a deduction under Section 80C up to ₹1.5 lakhs¹.
If you buy the policy on or before 31st March 2012, the premiums paid, up to 20% of the capital sum assured, would qualify as a deduction under Section 80C up to ₹1.5 lakhs¹.
If you buy the policy on or after 1^st April 2013 and you suffer from a disease or a disability specified under Section 80DDB or 80U, the premiums paid, up to 15% of the capital sum assured, would qualify as a deduction under Section 80C up to ₹1.5 lakhs¹.
The death benefit is always tax-free².
If you choose the return of premium term plan, the premiums refunded on maturity will qualify as a tax-free income under Section 10(10D)³subject to satisfaction of conditions mentioned therein.

How Term Insurance Works for Self-Employed?

Term insurance that covers the self-employed provides financial security by providing the death benefit to the nominee in the event of the demise of the life assured during the policy term that the policy is active. The self-employed person pays the scheduled premiums to keep the policy active and ensure that the death benefit is given incase of their untimely demise. This amount is intended to allow the family to cover financial personal costs while providing financial coverage to settle business debts that may be due at the time of death. Since income for self-employed individuals can vary or be unpredictable, term insurance offers a financial safety net that ensures their family remains protected regardless of income fluctuations. The policyholder can choose the sum assured and the policy term to align with the family's needs and their financial objectives.

Nominees will also receive the payout tax-free, providing additional peace of mind. Premiums for term insurance are typically lower than those for other types of life insurance, making it an affordable option for self-employed individuals. When considering term insurance, policyholders have to assess their income, liabilities, and future needs carefully. This insurance protects dependents by providing financial stability in the event of a shocking event.

Types of Term Insurance Plans for Self-employed

Different types of term insurance plans are available for self-employed individuals to consider. Some of the common types are as follows –

Increasing term insurance plans:

Under these plans, the sum assured increases every year by a predefined amount. This gives you increasing coverage while the premium usually remains the same.

For instance, if a term plan increases the sum assured by 10% every year, and the base sum assured is ₹50 lakhs, the sum assured would increase by ₹5 lakhs every year.
Decreasing term insurance plans:

This is the opposite of increasing term plans. Under decreasing term plans, the sum assured will be reduced each year. These plans are usually sold with loans wherein the reduced sum assured usually matches the reduced value of the loan. On the borrower’s demise, the outstanding loan is cleared by the reduced sum assured.
Level term insurance plans:

These are basic term plans where the sum assured remains the same throughout the policy tenure.
Term plans with return of premium:

Most term plans do not offer any maturity benefit. If you survive the chosen tenure and the plan matures, you do not get any benefit. However, under term plans with a return of premium, the premiums paid over the policy tenure are refunded on maturity if you survive the tenure.

How to select/choose the best Term Insurance for Self-employed?

Some tips that can help self-employed individuals choose the best term insurance plan are as follows –

The sum assured

It is recommended to choose a sum assured which covers your financial needs adequately. You can use term insurance calculators to find the ideal sum assured and get optimal coverage.

As such, you should look for term plans which have no restrictions on the sum assured so that you can choose a level which best suits your needs.
The coverage

While most term plans offer similar coverage, some plans offer inbuilt riders and optional coverage features like terminal illness cover, accidental death and disablement cover, whole life cover option, return of premium option and more.

Check the coverage offered. Look for plans offering a comprehensive scope of coverage for wider protection.
Riders

Riders are optional coverage features which enhance the scope of the policy on payment of nominal additional premium. Check the riders available and choose optimal ones for enhancing the scope of coverage.
Premium

Check the premium of the term plan. It should be affordable so that you can pay the premium without incurring any financial hiccups.
Claim Settlement Ratio (CSR)

Check the CSR of the insurance company. The CSR indicates the percentage of claims settled v/s the number of claims raised. A high CSR is favorable as it increases the probability of claim settlement.
Policy term

Choose a policy term that aligns with your coverage needs. A long-term coverage is feasible for maximum protection. As a self-employed individual, if you plan to work even after the retirement age, choose long-term coverage. You can also opt for the whole life cover option available under some term plans for longer coverage.
Read the Fine Print

Reading the fine print means carefully checking all the details in the insurance policy document before buying. It helps you understand what is covered and what is not. This includes knowing the terms about payouts, exclusions, waiting periods, and charges. Being aware of these details avoids surprises later. Taking time to read the policy fully ensures you know exactly what protection you are getting.
Review Periodically

Regularly reviewing your insurance policy ensures that it continues to meet your needs. As you progress through the stages of life, your coverage may need to be upgraded. By reviewing your policy every year or when there are any changes to your income or family, you help ensure that your protection stays current, helps keep your finances intact, and allows your family to access the support you intended when they need it.

Features of Term Insurance for Self-Employed Individuals

Some of the features of term insurance for self-employed individuals are as follows –

Sum assured:

Under term insurance plans, the sum assured is usually unlimited. While there might be a minimum sum assured amount, the maximum amount is usually unlimited, so you can choose coverage that best meets your needs.
Coverage tenure:

You can choose a long-term tenure for longer coverage. Some plans also offer a whole life option, which is suitable if you plan to continue working even in old age.
Riders available:

Optional riders are available for coverage enhancement under most term insurance plans. You can choose from the available riders and add those that provide the coverage that you need.
Online term plans:

Some term plans are available online, so you can buy them in simple steps. Such plans do not require physical branch visits or physical application and offer quicker coverage.
Return of premium:
The return of premium option is also available under many term plans, which refund the premium on maturity. You can choose the option if you want a maturity benefit under the plan.

List of Term Insurance Plans for Self-Employed Individuals

Self-employed individuals have access to various term insurance plans designed to meet different financial needs and life situations. These plans provide financial protection to the nominee(s) in case of the life insured’s death during the policy term.

Level Term Insurance offers a death benefit and stable premiums for a set duration, such as 10, 20, or 30 years. The death benefit and premium remain constant for the entire policy term.
Decreasing Term Insurance features, a death benefit that lowers over time, often used to cover outstanding debts like loans that reduce gradually.
Convertible Term Insurance allows the policy owner to change a term policy into a whole life insurance or permanent policy without further medical exams, which is useful for long-term coverage changes.
Return of Premium (ROP) Term Insurance returns all premiums paid if the life assured survives the term.
Other options include Group Term Insurance for members of professional bodies and Increasing Term Insurance, where the death benefit grows over time to keep pace with inflation or rising expenses.

Choosing the right plan depends on personal needs and budget. Various plans are available to support self-employed individuals in securing their family’s future.

Documents Required to Buy Term Insurance for Self-Employed Individuals

When purchasing term insurance for the self-employed, it's essential to provide specific documents to facilitate the application process. These documents help the insurer assess eligibility and determine appropriate coverage.

Document Type	Examples
Proof of Identity	Aadhaar Card, Passport, Voter ID, Permanent DL
Proof of Address	include Aadhar, Permanent DL, Passport and Voter ID card
Proof of Age	Municipal Birth Certificate, Aadhaar Card, Pan card, School Transfer certificate (TC)
Proof of Income	Last 3 years ITR, Latest Form 16, Profit & Loss (PNL) Accounts and Balance Sheets
Medical Reports	Health Check-up Reports, Medical Test Results (if applicable)
Photographs	Recent Passport-sized Photographs

Providing accurate and up-to-date documents ensures a smooth application process. It's advisable to check with the insurer for any additional requirements or specific formats needed for document submission.

Conclusion

If you are a self-employed individual, a term plan can be a good choice for protecting your family’s finances. Assess your coverage needs and choose a coverage that aligns with your needs and provides optional protection. You can also choose riders to enhance the scope of the policy on payment of a nominal additional premium and enjoy all-round coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the maximum sum assured that a self-employed individual can choose?

There’s usually no limit on the maximum sum assured that self-employed individuals can choose. You can assess your coverage needs and choose an assured sum that matches your coverage requirements.

2. Do riders need additional premiums?

Yes, riders are additional coverage benefits that are optional in nature. If you choose optional riders with your term insurance plan, you have to pay an additional premium for each optional rider selected. Some term plans also offer inbuilt riders. No additional premium is required for such riders, as their premium is already built into the premium calculation of the policy.

3. Do I need to pay an additional premium for the return of premium option?

Suppose a term insurance plan offers the return of premium option, and you choose the option. In that case, there is an additional premium that customers may need to pay (over and above the base term premium for the base term cover) if the return of premium option is selected.

4. Can the self-employed get term insurance?

Self-employed people can get term insurance. It is a kind of life insurance that helps them provide financial security to their family if they (in case they have bought the policy in their name) die during the policy tenure. Because self-employed income can change a lot, insurance companies may ask for extra proof of income. Term insurance gives money to the family to pay for daily expenses and bills after the person dies.

5. What is the minimum income for term insurance?

There is no set minimum income needed to buy term insurance. Insurance companies look at how much money a person makes to decide how much coverage and premium are right in addition to other factors. Self-employed people usually show bank statements or tax papers to prove their income. This helps make sure the insurance fits their money situation and family needs.

6. Can self-employed individuals avail tax benefits with term insurance?

People who have term insurance may get some tax benefits. The money paid as premiums might be deductible when filing taxes. Also, the money given to the nominee after death is usually tax-free. The exact rules depend on local tax laws. It is essential to check the tax rules that apply in one’s area.

7. Is a medical check-up mandatory for purchasing term insurance?

Sometimes, a medical check-up is needed before getting term insurance. This depends on the insurance company, the person’s age, the amount of coverage asked for amongst other factors.

8. Can term insurance cover business debts for self-employed individuals?

Term insurance can help pay business debts if the life assured dies during the policy term. The money from the insurance can be used to pay off loans or bills left unpaid. This helps the family not to worry about these debts after the person passes away.
