How to increase coverage with term and life insurance riders
In return of a higher rate of payable premium, a policy holder can avail of these riders. Following are the important additional riders for term insurance with their relevant benefits:

Therefore, a critical illness rider serves as an additional protection for financial security in the event of diagnosis of any critical illness. Every insurance provider has a pre-declared list of such illnesses against which protection can be sought. In the event of the any such occurrence, additional benefits are payable to the nominee(s) of the policy holder.Accidental Death benefit:

Hence, the cover continues to be in effect but the balance premiums are waived off.Accidental disability rider:
This is an important rider that entitles the policy holder's nominee(s) to receive additional benefits in addition to the sum assured as per the main plan, in the event of the policy holder's disability due to an accidental occurrence.Income rider:
