Reliance Nippon Life Insurance Company Limited, a leading private life insurer, has unveiled a new deferred annuity plan, the Reliance Nippon Life Nishchit Pension, which is designed to provide a guaranteed lifelong income, allowing customers to streamline their retirement income and protect against any decline in long-term interest rates.
According to the Economic Survey of India, by 2041, 15.9% of India’s population will be over the age of 60 (up from 9.7% in 2021). Such a significant demographic shift is the primary cause of increased demand for retirement solutions. According to internal corporate research, clients planning for retirement are more concerned with ensuring consistent, long-term cashflows for themselves and their dependents. The RNL Nischit Pension was designed with this specific client’s need in mind.
Commenting on the launch of the new product, Ashish Vohra – ED & CEO, Reliance Nippon Life Insurance, said, “With nuclearization of family structures and increased life expectancy, there is a real risk of outliving one’s savings. One should embark on their retirement planning at the earliest possible to ensure a lifelong guaranteed regular income solution for their golden years. That said, it is never too late to plan for one’s retirement. Over the next decade, I see an exponential demand growth for retirement planning.”
RNL Nischit Pension solves significant retirement-related concerns such as establishing lifetime income guarantees, ensuring income for the last surviving couple, and leaving a legacy for future generations.
Key features of the plan include:
- Guaranteed Income for Life: Lifelong regular income for self, spouse, child, siblings, and in-laws.
- Flexible Annuity Options: Multiple annuity choices tailored to fit individual retirement needs.
- Convenient Payment Terms: Limited accumulation durations of 5/6/7/8/10 years to plan according to necessity.
- Liquidity in Critical Situations: Liquidity choices in the event of serious illness or total permanent disability.
RNL Nishchit Pension provides a lifelong rate guarantee for self and family, which is critical for good retirement planning. Customers can choose their annuity start date by postponing payouts, as well as the frequency of their income payouts (monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or yearly) to meet their specific demands.
Commenting on the value to customers, Vohra added, “Pension products are effective financial independence and legacy creation tools. Continuous advancements in healthcare, increasing lifespans and inflationary pressures collectively pose the risk of one living too long and exhausting their accumulated savings. We have endeavoured to ensure that a typical 50-year-old customer accumulating Rs. 60 Lakhs over 6 years stands to secure a lifelong annual income of approximately Rs. 6 Lakhs from age 60 and leave behind the original savings of Rs. 60 Lakhs as legacy. I am sure that prudent retirement planning will allow Indians to retire gracefully.”
