DigiShield Plan

DigiShield Plan is a term life insurance plan from Aditya Birla Sun Life Insurance Co. Ltd., available to residents of India. Sum insured ranges from ₹30L to ₹100.0Cr, eligible ages 18 to 65, and the policy is n/a. Below is our take on how it compares to other term life plans in our database — what it does well, where it lags, and the kind of policyholder it actually fits.

Annual premium starts at ₹7K, against a category median of ₹8.8K across the 14 comparable term life plans we track in this country. That places DigiShield Plan in the bottom quintile on price, and the upper-mid range on coverage ceiling (maximum sum insured ₹100.0Cr versus a peer median of ₹5Cr). On the value spectrum it reads as an unusually strong value pick: priced in the cheaper end while still offering above-median coverage.

Coverage breadth is in line with what most term plans offer: 4 core inclusions, 4 highlighted features, and 3 optional riders. Notable features called out by Aditya Birla Sun Life Insurance Co. Ltd. include 11 payout variants, Cover up to age 85, and Aditya Birla Group backing. On the rider side, DigiShield Plan can be extended with Accidental Death, Critical Illness, and Waiver of Premium — each adding to the base premium but also widening what the policy will pay out for.

Term life pricing is most sensitive to age, smoker status, and policy term, so the headline premium is illustrative only. DigiShield Plan accepts applicants aged 18–65, which sets the practical ceiling on policy term — for someone applying at 18, the longest possible cover runs through age 65. Whether the rate you get on quote will land near the illustrative minimum depends entirely on your underwriting bucket; non-smokers in the youngest cohort typically pay close to the floor, smokers and older applicants pay materially more. Aditya Birla Sun Life Insurance Co. Ltd.'s published claim settlement record is the metric that actually matters for term — the policy is worthless if claims are denied at maturity, and the difference between a 95% and 99% settlement ratio is the difference between routine claims paid and routine claims fought.

Where DigiShield Plan explicitly will not pay: Suicide within 12 months. These are not unusual exclusions for a term life plan, but they are the boundary of the contract — anything outside that list is in scope, anything inside is not. Read the full exclusions list before signing; every plan we have ever audited has at least one exclusion the buyer did not realise was there.

Best fit for: buyers prioritising lowest annual outlay. As with any insurance decision, get a quote from Aditya Birla Sun Life Insurance Co. Ltd. directly to confirm the rate that actually applies to your profile — listed prices are illustrative.
