Education Planning

In India, education is seen as the most valuable asset a parent can give their child. With rising tuition fees, competitive entrance exams, and the growing preference for international or specialised courses, preparing in advance for a child’s educational journey has become a necessity. Education planning is the process of systematically setting aside resources to ensure that your child has the means to pursue quality education—whether in India or abroad—without compromise.

The cost of higher education has been rising steadily. A professional course in India today can cost anywhere from ₹10 to ₹25 lakhs, and this figure could double in the next decade due to inflation. If your child aspires to study overseas, the expenses could be significantly higher when you factor in tuition, living expenses, and currency fluctuations. By starting early and choosing the right mix of savings and protection tools—such as child education plans, mutual funds with goal-based SIPs, Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana (for girl children), or education-focused insurance products—you can systematically accumulate the required corpus over time.

What sets education planning apart is the emotional and aspirational component involved. Every parent wants to support their child’s ambition, whether it’s becoming a doctor, engineer, designer, entrepreneur, or artist. An early start ensures that these dreams are not hampered by a sudden financial burden. For parents with multiple children or those aiming for private universities or global exposure, structured planning offers the clarity and confidence to meet those goals without affecting day-to-day living.

Education planning also serves as a financial safeguard. Even in unforeseen situations like the disability or untimely demise of a parent, education-focused insurance products ensure that the child's academic journey continues uninterrupted. Many of these policies offer built-in premium waivers and assured payouts during critical milestones like school completion, college admission, or post-graduate studies. Additionally, several of these instruments offer tax-saving benefits under Section 80C, allowing you to save while building for your child’s future.
