Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], July 31: As financial planning becomes increasingly goal-based, people are seeking protection solutions that align with the period when their financial responsibilities are the highest. They want insurance that is relevant to their current needs, offers meaningful financial security and complements the way they plan their finances. Recognising this shift, ICICI Prudential Life Insurance has introduced ICICI Pru iProtect Smart Plus, with a 10-year life cover solution designed to provide financial protection during one of life's most important financial phases. The option is beneficial for individuals managing responsibilities such as home loans, business loans, child's education or any outstanding loans. It provides life cover for a fixed 10-year period that corresponds with a phase when financial commitments are often at their highest and families are more dependent on the primary earning member's income. Mr. Vikas Gupta, Chief Product Officer, ICICI Prudential Life Insurance, said, "Customer expectations from financial protection continue to evolve alongside their life goals. At ICICI Prudential Life Insurance, our focus has always been on understanding these changing needs and providing solutions that help customers protect what matters most at different stages of their financial journey.

ICICI Pru iProtect Smart Plus also provides a 100% payout on diagnosis of terminal illness, offering financial support when needed the most. To provide immediate financial assistance to families, the plan includes instant claim support of 3 lakh. ICICI Prudential Life Insurance reported an industry-leading claim settlement ratio of 99.3% in Q1-FY2027, with an average claim settlement turnaround time of 1 day, an important factor for customers while choosing a life insurance policy.
