    @ramesh no my parents are not dependent on me financially.but for future(wife & childrens) everyone has to take minimum 1 life insurance policy . So why not start now.

    @manish no-no for investment purpose i have taken sip.This one should be protection policy for my wife & childrens( in future).

    Now suggest be best one. I am confused between kotak preffered term plan policy and kotak e-preferred term plan policy.

    Is there any other policies better than these?

      Get life insurance policy only and only if you have financial dependents. so get it when you have wife and kids. so, do it in future, not now.
      Whatever money you have “alloted” for life insurance, use that for pure investing. Do not donate it to life insurance companies (charity in this case).
      Invest that money for a better wedding / honeymoon / gift for your wife, etc.

    Kotak Preffered is a protection policy .. If you have financial dependents , you can take it ,. for invstment purpose , but mutual funds

    Is there anybody who is dependent on your financially? == Do your parents depend upon you for finances?
    If no, then avoid life insurance (any- term, ulip, traditional, etc).
