Suggestions:

According to my opinion, the policy of Bharti Axa Life Invest Once is not so good, as the returns offered under the scheme are very much less as compared to the other investment options available. There are many other LIC policies available with the people that can offer much more benefits than these benefits. Also, the Bank FDs offer much more interest than the interest rate offered by this policy.
