1.      SAVE VIA INTEREST PAYMENT ON LOAN

If you have a loan such as education loan, home loan, car or personal loan then tax saving becomes easy. The government allows tax benefits for individuals who are repaying loans. Some investments that you many consider under Section 80C are: Life insurance premium paid towards self, spouse or child, contribution towards statutory provident fund or superannuation fund, contribution towards public provident fund scheme, subscription to units of mutual fund equity linked saving scheme notified by the central government, etc. It can be a better tax saving option if tax planning by payment of loan is done wisely.
 2.      Buy a Health Insurance Policy
Premium paid on health insurance policies is allowed as deduction from your total income, according to Section 80D of the Income Tax Act. Deduction up to Rs 15,000 is available for insurance of self, spouse and dependent children. This is one of the best options and can be part of tax planning.
 3.      Make a donation
Making a donation is a good way to save tax on your income. Section 80G of the Income Tax Act allows an individual to claim deductions up to a specified limit for contributions made to charitable organizations or NGOs. This option will save taxes as well as bring some virtue.
 4.      Equity Mutual Funds
Investment in equity mutual funds is a great way to make your profits 100% non-taxable. However, it is advisable not to sell your equity shares before a period of one year as anything less than 12 months may incur tax on profits.
 5.      Amount received as gifts
Any gifts received on your marriage in the form of cash or cheque are totally tax free. You can receive cash gifts from your relatives or friends for which you don’t have to pay any tax.
 6.      House Rent Allowance
You can claim House Rent Allowance (HRA) to save tax on your house rent. However, this is applicable only when you are staying in a rented accommodation.
 7.      Medical Bills
You can keep all the medical receipts of your medical expenses to use them for tax saving at the end of the year. An amount up to Rs 15000 is non-taxable on medical expenses for yourself and your dependent family members.

Why Should Increase First-Party Benefits Coverage ?


Under Pennsylvania’s Motor Vehicle Financial Responsibility Law (MVFRL), auto insurance companies are required to provide a minimum of $5,000 in first-party medical benefits or personal injury protection (PIP) benefits. Motorcycles, ATVs, and other vehicles not intended for highway use are not included. You should strongly consider increasing your first-party coverages on your auto insurance policy. Here’s why:
Fault vs. No-Fault
In most states, auto insurance companies function under a traditional “fault-based” system. What this means is that insurance companies will make payments for medical bills based upon each driver’s degree of fault in a particular accident. So if two drivers are involved in a head to head crash, their insurance companies will battle over who pays medical bills.
Under Pennsylvania’s modified no-fault system, any person who suffers injury arising out of the “maintenance or use” of a motor vehicle is entitled to recover first party benefits from the appropriate policy in the order of priority listed below:
(1) The auto policy where you are a named insured, or in other words, where you are listed on the policy declarations page because you purchased the policy.
(2) If you are not a named insured: first party coverage applies through an auto policy where you are an additional insured, but are not the named insured. This would apply for family members such as teenagers and spouses who did not obtain the policy directly, but are covered nonetheless.
(3) If are not insured under an auto policy but are occupying a car with insurance, then you are covered under that policy. This can apply to minors and those who do not drive.
(4) If you are not occupying a motor vehicle (i.e. pedestrian), then you are covered by the policy on the motor vehicle involved in the accident.
To illustrate how this applies, let’s assume you are a named insured on your own policy and receive $5,000 in First-Party or PIP benefits. Another driver comes along and negligently strikes your vehicle, causing you to incur $5,000 in medical expenses as treatment for your injuries. Because PA is a no-fault state, your own insurance company is responsible for paying the first $5,000 in medical bills incurred as a result of the accident. You would then be responsible for paying the rest, or alternatively, suing the other driver for out of pocket medical bills in excess of $5,000.
More Bang for your Buck
Section 1979 of the MVFRL limits the amount a physician or hospital can bill an insurance provider for injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident. The cost of treatment is “repriced” based upon a complicated formula. Long story short, your auto insurance company pays far less for your medical bills with first-party benefits than you would pay individually without insurance.
We have seen an instance where medical bills totaling $130,000 were repriced by the first-party insurance carrier to a total of $18,000 and paid in full. The hospital was required to accept the $18,000 as full satisfaction of all bills incurred.

Buying Health Insurance Policy?



A health insurance policy is a must because hospitalisation for even a small ailment can burn a big hole in your pocket. A plethora of products are available in the market, so you should plan meticulously based on your requirements. There are a few critical points that you should keep in mind while buying a health insurance policy. Adequate cover It is important that your health policy provides sufficient coverage for you and your family. "How much cover one should take will depend on various factors such as city where the person is residing and his age. In case of metros, medical costs are higher, therefore one should opt for higher cover... Also, if you are getting old, your coverage requirement will be higher," says Naval Goel, CEO, PolicyX.com, an insurance policy comparing portal. "In large metro-cities, a family should have a cover of Rs 10 lakh while in other cities Rs 5 lakh cover is sufficient," says Anand Roy, senior vice president, marketing & sales, Star Health and Allied Insurance. Pre-existing illness You should always disclose a pre-existing disease while buying an insurance policy. As per Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA) pre-existing diseases is any ailment, injury or any disease in any form which was diagnosed within 48 months prior to purchase of the policy. Generally, pre-existing diseases are not covered under the policy or most of the insurers impose a waiting period during which insurance coverage is not available for that disease. The tenure of waiting period differs from insurer to insurer. "Based on the information you give, the insurer will decide whether to provide cover to you or not. In case of non-disclosure, insurance company is not liable to pay you any cover," Mr Roy said. Exclusions You must read your policy documents for all possible exclusions, which basically defines what will not be covered under the policy. There are certain standard exclusions such as cost of spectacles, dental treatments and injury under the influence of alcohol. Apart from this many companies exclude certain disease from their coverage list such as general debility, congenital external defects, venereal disease and AIDS. "You should look at exclusions related to pre-existing diseases and waiting period," says Sanjay Datta chief underwriting and claims, ICICI Lombard General Insurance Company. Sub-limit Certain policies have sub-limits, meaning there is a cap on the amount of claim you will get, on room rent or medical treatment of certain diseases. For example some policies cap the room rent to 1 or 1.5 per cent of the policy. So, if the medical policy is for Rs 1 lakh, you can only claim Rs 1,000 or 1,500 for room rent, if the cost is higher you will have to pay from your pocket. Policies with sub-limits will have lower premium compared to policies without sub-limits. Also, it is critical that you check if the policy has sub-limits on certain ailment as in this case even if your sum assured is high, you may not be able to avail the entire amount of hospitalisation. "Ultimately it is a call that an individual has to take, whether he wants to pay a higher premium or bear part of the cost of hospitalisation," says Anand Roy of Star Health. Cash-less facility Insurance companies generally offer two types of claim facilities--cashless and reimbursement. Under cashless, the insurer pays directly to the hospital while in case of reimbursement facility, you pay the hospital bills from your pocket first and then claim it from your insurer. It is advisable to take cashless as then you don't have to pay from your pocket and avoid the hassle of reimbursement. Co-payment Co-payment basically means you will have to bear certain part of the amount that you will claim from your insurer. Suppose your hospitalisation cost is Rs 100 then you will have to pay 20 per cent from your pocket. In case of co-payment clause, the premium is lower. However, experts believe that in case of high claim amount, co-payment can be a burden on the individual. "It may reduce the premium to about 5-10 per cent on co-payment of 20 per cent. But it is vital to understand co-payment. People may agree to co-pay thinking that it will reduce the premium but on a high claim amount, it could be a significant amount," Mr Datta said..

In the event that you are a continuous rider, or spread a great deal of miles through the span of the year, then this will likewise knock up the cost of your premium as the additional time you spend out and about, so the danger of being included in a mischance increments.

Purchasing Car Insurance: Should You Use an Agent or Go Online?

On the off chance that your rates go up in the wake of focusing on an approach, they can help you locate a lower cost when it's a great opportunity to shop once more. Nonetheless, in light of the fact that commission considers along with their pay all the more intensely, they might be under more weight to make an arrangement as fast as could be expected under the circumstances.

Online
