if your plan wasn't offered til after the ACA was passed, then it could not be grandfathered obviously.
To clarify, Obama kept announcing that if you liked your policy, you could keep it. He kept announcing that even though he knew it wasn't true. He knew that millions of people were going to get cancellation notices.

To clarify about being grandfathered, "The law states that policies in effect as of March 23, 2010 will be “grandfathered,” meaning consumers can keep those policies even though they don’t meet requirements of the new health care law. But the Department of Health and Human Services then wrote regulations that narrowed that provision, by saying that if any part of a policy was significantly changed since that date — the deductible, co-pay, or benefits, for example — THE POLICY WOULD NOT BE GRANDFATHERED."
