Signature of Policyholder of Life Assured Online

By -

Life assured or insured is the person(s) whose life is covered in the insurance contract. In the event of a contingency, the insured can claim the amount or in the event of the death of the assured, the nominee will receive the insurance amount. 

IRDAI has now asked life insurance companies to highlight the sum assured, premium and policy as well as payment terms. Under the exemption, the proposal form has to be sent to the proposer on his or her registered e-mail ID or mobile number in the form of an e-mail or a message with a link. 

If you are planning to buy a life insurance policy this financial year, you won’t need to give your consent by signing on the hard copy of the proposal form and can do so electronically instead. 

The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) on Thursday extended the exemption given to life insurers to obtain customers’ consent without requiring signatures on the hard copy of the proposal forms till 31 March 2021. In the wake of the covid-19 pandemic and social distancing norms, the regulator in August 2020 had allowed companies to obtain customers’ consent through electronic means till 31 December 2020. 

IRDAI has also asked life insurance companies to highlight the sum assured, premium and policy and payment terms while seeking your consent. 

The proposal form is sent to the customer’s registered email ID or mobile number. The customer can give consent by affixing a digital signature or by clicking the confirmation link or by validating the OTP shared. IRDAI reiterated that agents can’t ask for a deposit till the receipt of consent. Some agents ask for a deposit, which is later adjusted with the first premium, but that’s not allowed. 

The regulator had earlier allowed companies to issue electronic policies on email. Physical policies are not mandatory now if the insurer gets the policyholder’s consent. Read More…

Success Is Not Just a Coincidence

Success is not just a coincidence. This is the result of our perspective and we can choose our own perspective. Therefore, success is a matter of choice, not of chance. Most of the people keep waiting for a lottery to take place, but can they get success in it? You have to choose to work hard and you have to choose to be in the right place at the right time. You also have to be able to recognize what an opportunity looks like. Nothing happens by chance. Everything happens for a reason. Success is an opportunity and opportunity comes only to those who prepare themselves. Chance or luck is being prepared to see an opportunity. Our continuous efforts can make any impossible task possible. Just as a continuously flowing river cuts even a mountain. If you want to win, consider these thoughts. The eagerness to do something new always takes a person to his destination. Many types of obstacles come in the way of success due to which a person loses and changes his path.

Specifically, I wanted a new bedroom so we went to the next societies in search of a new house; my family wanted a big hall and a room for their indoor activities. We searched a lot for a house. In our imagination; Our house should be very well lit. Maximum sunlight should be provided by skylights and tall windows. The place should be much bigger than our old house. We first looked at our needs and then looked at the budget. Is our household budget matching our needs? The next step was to add some modern touches, which we were very happy with. Our aim was to find a home that reflected its traditional values, but with a touch of modernity. We combined classic features like terracotta grills with more contemporary additions like box projections, glass extensions and glass staircases to find this beautiful, timeless property; Which we can...

Faith and Belief

When there is worry in your mind, your body gets worried, there is fear and you feel tight. There is excitement when needed, eyes turn red when angry, tongue waters when tempted to eat. So it is clear from this that emotions affect the body. What don't you do when you have anger and hatred? Then will the faith and belief in our mind not have any effect? Are these so insignificant that they do not help your morale at all? Faith and belief calm your body, make your mind free from doubt, double and triple your intellect, relax your ego and remove every layer of ignorance. Faith and belief destroy humility, subservience and impurity, and bring about such chemical changes in the body that stool disorders go away, diseases and grief go away. This is a sure shot way to acquire the experiences of the great souls. When faith and belief in God is active in the heart, it washes away all the impurities. In place of lust, peace comes in the heart, indifference in place of anger, equanimi...

The True Spiritual Practice

By -
Image
Today there are many saints, but there is no sadhana. Sadhana without sadhana is like paper flowers. In which there is a lot of multicolored attraction, but there is a complete lack of fragrance. Such paper flowers are seen everywhere today. Because of this, the intensity and brightness of religion has dimmed. Religion is impossible in the absence of spiritual practice. The roots of religion are in spiritual practice. In the absence of spiritual practice, a saint's life can either be mere acting or oppression. Both these things are not auspicious. False expression of penance is hypocrisy, while mere repression is even more deadly. There is the torture of struggle in it, but there is no achievement in it. That which is suppressed does not die, but slides into deeper layers. On the one hand, a saint without sadhna is tormented by the pangs of lust; His life keeps burning in their flames; The fierce race of desire keeps giving him pain every moment; On the other hand, the flames...

It is a universal truth that change is the law of nature. After every night comes a day. Similar changes keep happening in our lives also. Some things change as per our wish and some things happen automatically without our efforts. Just as stagnant water gets filled with dirt and flowing water automatically remains clean and pure. Similar changes keep happening in human life also. Sometimes the scenery changes and sometimes the view of thinking changes. The change of scenery is not only refreshing; In some circumstances, this is the right choice. Different people see the same person in different ways. It is not certain that every Sunday is a holiday, it does not mean that every holiday will be followed by a Monday. Recognizing that, in terms of personal growth and development, we are not at the level we believe we should be. If we do not first change ourselves i.e. do not create a better self; So no matter where we go, who we meet, whatever new situation we find ourselves in, we...
