Hello sir, I have all my account with idbi bank, but idbi bank not giving online fd closure Option. . Why they not give fd closure option. I choose this bank for all my family account (me, my wife, son, and huf) so what can I do? In idbi i do fd of my emergancy fund. But they can’t give online fd closing option. For fd closing we have to compulsory visit to the branch which is not possible in busy life. So i want to change bank or suggest me your view. I don’t like sbi, Bob, and pnb because then have lot of customers in branch When visited. Also they don’t give good service and value to Their customer. Give one of the good psu bank which give such kind of service, I put all my emergency fund in fd. Pls suggest. Also idbi bank give good service only problem is online fd closure. …Waiting for your reply. …

Hello Manish,
I have a question about Jeevan Tarang LIC policy.
After maturity of the Tarang Policy, Vested Bonus is given. After yearly he will get 5.5% of sum assured for 100 years, if he survives 100 years then Sum Assured is given & policy terminated; if he doesn’t survive nominee will get sum assured.
So now what I want to ask is – If after Maturity I want to terminate the Policy will I get sum assured with bonus? Meaning I do not have 100 years life cover.
Kindly Reply, Thanks.

I have a query like- if I have financial goal for both Short term and Long term Like

Goal A – 60,000 INR – Duration 12 month — Each month deduct from saving account – 60,000/12 = 5000

I want that every month 5000 and 13,888 deduct from my account separately.

Subject: investing of funds in respect of grandmother

Sir, I am a serving officer (30 years) & have a query regarding investment of funds in respect of my grandmother (70 years). She has recently got her post office scheme matured (approx 3.5 lakhs) and FDs of approx 10 lakhs are in line to complete their terms next month. I want to park her money at a just place with following objectives :-

A. Money should be safe.

B. Should fetch her a monthly income of 6-7 thousand for her maintenance.

C. Should beat inflation to a fair amount.

D. Liquidity.

E. No taxation.

F. She wants to keep me as a nominee. Is there any taxation/ inheritance angle that I should take into consideration?

Looking forward for your guidance. Thanks & regards.

Hi Manish

I have experienced a unique problem with IRCTC and SBI Credit Card. I tried to make a reservation through IRCTC seeking confirmed LOWER Birth. I was directed to make payment by IRCTC and at the end they asked that the option of Lower Birth is NOT possible – whether I want to continue or, decline the transaction. As I badly needed Lower Birth (for Senior Citizen travelling with me) so I opted to decline. IRCTC said they will make the reversal of payment. After couple of days I got a refund from IRCTC (minus Rs. 180/-). When I asked their representative, I was told that IRCTC has ACTUALLY reimbursed what they have charged. Now my next stop was the SBI Credit Card Helpline. There I was told that as the transaction has actually happened, so the merchant has charged their transaction fee…. In this whole episode I last my money. My question is WHY IRCTC CANNOT SHOW THEIR INABILITY FOR ALLOCATING PREFERRED SEATS PRIOR TO PAYMENT GATEWAY? Or, is there any other way ( some other Credit Card etc.) to evade this loss?

Mr.Manish Chauhan

I like Your explanation on Zurich futura. I am an NRI working in Bahrain. Recently one of agent from Zurich approached me and explained there plans.I am 38 years old . I want to take an insurance plan, which gives at least 2 crores to my family if anything happens to me.Here, my company provided health insurance only to me. So , i worried about my family. If any critical problem comes to them, I have to pay more money.So ,I am thinking of taking Zurich term policy with critical illiness cover , but premium is high. In india , if i take any term policy in india it covers only life . please suggest me. I want to take critical illness policy for my family ( spoise+2 children) and also term policy for myself which gives atleast 2 crores surrender value.
