ULIP Insurance (Unit Linked Insurance Plan) – Insurance + Investment in One Smart Package ULIP (Unit Linked Insurance Plan) is a hybrid financial product that combines life insurance coverage with market-linked investment opportunities. It allows policyholders to secure their family's financial future while also building long-term wealth through strategic investments in equity, debt, or balanced funds. In a ULIP, a portion of the premium paid goes toward providing life insurance, while the remaining portion is invested in various market instruments, depending on the policyholder’s chosen fund options. ULIPs are suitable for those who want dual benefits—financial protection and capital appreciation under one plan.
