DO THIS FIRST
The family has about 18 days before accessible savings run out.
₹33,000 of available cash divided by ₹55,000 of monthly bills is 0.6 months, or roughly 18 days. Three people rely on the same salary.
Available now₹33,000
÷Monthly bills₹55,000
=Time covered18 days
A sensible first jobFind another ₹22,000 to cover one full month.
If they can put aside ₹5,500 a month, this first gap would take about four months. That is a rough timeline, not a promise.
18 days → 30 days CHECK NEXT
A ₹7,50,000 hospital bill could still leave ₹2,50,000 to pay.
The family has ₹5,00,000 of employer health cover. They still need to check the co-pay, room limit, waiting periods, exclusions and whether the policy ends with Arun’s job.
Next questionOpen the policy and check what it would really pay.
Do this separately for all three family members.
CHECK NEXT
The family-support calculation is ₹58,00,000 higher than the life cover listed.
We added the ₹20,00,000 loan and ten years of essential spending, then subtracted ₹3,00,000 the family could still use and ₹25,00,000 of life cover.
Next questionCheck the actual death benefit, policy end date and nominees.
This is a planning gap to investigate—not a recommendation to buy a ₹58,00,000 policy.
