Formula Used

Worked Example
For a family of 4 members (ages 25, 30, 35, and 40) with ₹5,00,000 coverage per person and a standard plan:
- Number of family members = 4
- Coverage amount = ₹5,00,000
- Average age = (25+30+35+40)/4 = 32.5 years
- Age factor = 1.2 (for ages 25-40)
- Plan factor = 1.1 (for standard plan)
Estimated Premium = (4 × 5,00,000) × 1.2 × 1.1 = ₹2,640,000 per year
