      Mumbai, 21 April 2025 – Life is full of dreams—purchasing a home, funding your child’s education, planning for unforgettable vacations, or enjoying a worry-free retirement. Achieving these goals requires not only financial protection but also a plan that adapts as your needs evolve. Tata AIA Life Insurance Co. Ltd. (Tata AIA), one of India’s leading life insurers, has introduced the Tata AIA Shubh Flexi Income Plan, an innovative life insurance savings solution offering a flexible approach to financial security and wealth creation.

      Designed to Evolve with You – Flexibility at the Core The Shubh Flexi Income Plan is a non-linked, participating life insurance savings plan that empowers you to customize your financial planning based on your unique aspirations. Offering flexibility from the very beginning, this plan provides three tailored options, each designed to meet specific financial goals: • Endowment Option – Ideal for building long-term savings, this option gives you a lump sum payout at the end of the plan. It's great for big life goals like buying a home, your child’s education, or ensuring financial security for the future.

      • Early Income Option—For those who seek a regular cash flow, this option provides yearly cash bonuses from the first year of the plan.

      • Deferred Income Option – Designed for individuals focused on long-term wealth accumulation or planning for early retirement, this option allows cash bonuses after the premium payment term with the flexibility to defer payouts for enhanced growth.

      The core benefit of this plan lies in its flexibility—allowing consumers to adjust their financial approach as their circumstances evolve.

      More Than Just Savings – Built-In Protection for Peace of Mind The Shubh Flexi Income Plan not only offers a pathway to wealth creation but also incorporates essential protective features to ensure financial security: • Waiver of Premium Option – In the event of the policyholder’s unfortunate demise, all future premiums are waived, ensuring that loved ones continue to receive the planned benefits.

      • Cover Continuance Benefit – This feature ensures that your policy continues even if the policyholder passes away. Future premiums are waived, but your loved ones still get the death benefit, along with all future bonuses and benefits.

      • ‘Sub Wallet’ Feature – This unique feature allows policyholders to accumulate bonuses in a wallet, which earns interest and can be utilised to make future premium payments.

      • Smart Lady Benefit – The plan offers a special discount for female policyholders, ensuring more affordable coverage and benefits.

      • Family Discount: There is also an additional discount which is available to the family members and nominees of the existing policyholders.

      Rewarding Policyholders with Higher Bonuses Tata AIA is known for delivering impressive bonus payouts to its participating (PAR) policyholders. For the financial year 2024, the company declared INR 1,465 crore bonus, 24% higher than the previous year’s INR 1,183 crore. This consistent performance ensures that policyholders benefit from enhanced wealth growth over time.

      Commenting on the launch, Sujeet Kothare, Executive Vice President, Head – Products, Business Mid Office and Digital Marketing, Tata AIA Life says, "At Tata AIA Life, we believe that financial security should not come at the cost of flexibility. Consumers today are looking for solutions that grow with them, providing both peace of mind and opportunities for wealth creation. The Shubh Flexi Income Plan is designed to empower individuals to take control of their financial future, offering guaranteed benefits along with the agility to adapt to life’s changing needs. Our vision is to ensure that every policyholder feels confident in their journey towards financial independence, knowing they have a partner who understands their aspirations and supports them at every stage." Empowering Your Financial Journey – Tailored for Every Stage of Life Whether you're just starting your career, raising a family, or planning for retirement, the Shubh Flexi Income Plan adapts to your needs, empowering you at every stage: • Young Professionals – Start early to build wealth and secure your long-term financial goals.

      • Parents & Families – Confidently plan for major life milestones like your child’s education and marriage.
