As you are aware, the recent floods, have caused immense loss to property in the state of Maharashtra and Karnataka. There is an urgent need for the insurance industry to take immediate steps to mitigate the hardships of the affected insured population by ensuring immediate registration and settlement of eligible claims.
IRDA has notified IRDAI (Payment of Commission or Remuneration or Reward to Insurance Agents and Insurance Intermediaries) Regulations, 2016. On this it may be noted that the segments specified in the existing reporting formats and specified in the Regulations do not match and the existing reporting formats do not capture information on rewards.
IRDA is of the view that these existing reporting formats require significant modification. Accordingly, the above mentioned Circulars for reporting of payouts to Insurance Agents and Insurance Intermediaries, stand withdrawn with immediate effect.
