Which method should I use?

Need Based sums your family's actual money needs (liabilities, expenses, goals). Best when income is variable or you want a goal led plan.
HLV values your future income stream. Best for salaried earners with stable income growth.
A common practice is to compute both and take the higher of the two as your target cover.
