Formula Used
Premium Calculation Formula
The estimated monthly premium is calculated using the following formula:
Premium = (Sum Insured × Age Factor × Plan Factor) / 12
Where:
- Sum Insured - The amount covered by the insurance policy
- Age Factor - A multiplier based on the policyholder's age (younger ages have lower factors)
- Plan Factor - A multiplier based on the type of plan (individual or family)
The calculator uses HDFC ERGO's typical pricing structure where:
- Individual plans have a plan factor of 0.0005
- Family plans have a plan factor of 0.0007
- The age factor is calculated as (65 - age) / 100
Worked Example
Let's calculate the premium for a 30-year-old individual with a sum insured of ₹5,00,000:
- Plan Type: Individual (Plan Factor = 0.0005)
- Age: 30 (Age Factor = (65 - 30)/100 = 0.35)
- Sum Insured: ₹5,00,000
Using the formula:
Premium = (5,00,000 × 0.35 × 0.0005) / 12
Premium = (5,00,000 × 0.000175) / 12
Premium = 87.5 / 12 ≈ ₹7.29 per month
