Tata AIG Life Nirvana Review

Tata AIG Nirvana is a traditional pension plan in which you can choose the retirement age (between 50 & 65) at which you want to start receiving your regular monthly pension. At the retirement age set by you, 33% of your accumulated amount can be withdrawn as a lump sum. The remainder can be used by you to purchase an annuity which will start giving you monthly pension.

Our Advice – Tata AIG Nirvana is a great risk free pension plan. Though the upside may not be very high, it offers a steady monthly income option on retirement. This is crucial for everyone’s retirement plan. It’s a great policy to buy. And it can be purchased online which makes it very convenient.

How it works – Suppose you are currently 35 years old and plan to retire at the age of 60 and want a cover of Rs. 5 lakhs. You would have to pay a premium of Rs. 17,150 + Service Tax every year for 25 years (retirement age of 60 minus current age of 35). At the age of 60 the total benefits accrued to you would be Rs. 16,14,169 (assuming a return of 10%). You may choose to withdraw 33% of this amount at the age of 60 or invest the entire amount in an annuity which will then give you regular monthly income.
