In this case, it has been reported that IRDAI has decided to make KYC verification mandatory for buying insurance policies from November 1. IRDAI believes that insurance fraud can be curbed through this.
Already, insurance companies have been insisting on making KYC mandatory for policyholders. In this case, IRDAI is now planning to make KYC verification mandatory.
According to this, henceforth KYC verification fee for insurance policy will be charged along with the insurance premium amount. Hence, the insurance premium amount is expected to rise slightly after November.
