Section 45 of the insurance Act, 1938 as amended from time-to-time states that:
(1) No policy of life insurance shall be called in question on any ground whatsoever after the expiry of three years from
the date of the policy, i.e., from the date of issuance of the policy or the date of commencement of risk or the date of
revival of the policy or the date of the rider to the policy whichever is later.

(2) A policy of life insurance may be called in question at any time within three years from the date of issuance of the
policy or the date of commencement of risk or the date of revival of the policy or the date of the rider to the policy,
whichever is later, on the ground of fraud:

Provided that the insurer shall have to communicate in writing to the insured or the legal representatives or nominees
of the insured the grounds and materials on which such decisions are based.

Explanation I - For the purposes of this sub-section, the expression “fraud” means any of the following acts committed
by the insured or by his agent, with the intent to deceive the insurer or to induce the insurer to issue a life insurance
policy:
• The suggestion, as a fact of that which is not true and which the insured does not believe to be true
• The active concealment of fact by the insured having knowledge or belief of the fact
• Any other act fitted to deceive
• Any such act or omission as the law specially declares to be fraudulent

Explanation II - Mere silence as to facts likely to affect the assessment of the risk by the insurer is not fraud, unless the
circumstances of the case are such that regard being had to them, it is the duty of the insured or his agent, keeping
silence to speak, or unless his silence is, in itself, equivalent to speak.

(3) Notwithstanding anything contained in sub-section (2) no insurer shall repudiate a life insurance policy on the ground
of fraud if the insured can prove that the misstatement of or suppression of a material fact was true to the best of his
knowledge and belief or that such misstatement of or suppression of a material fact are within the knowledge of the
insurer:

Provided that in case of fraud, the onus of disproving lies upon the beneficiaries, in case the member is not alive.
Explanation - A person who solicits and negotiates a contract of insurance shall be deemed for the purpose of the
formation of the contract, to be the agent of the insurer.

(4) A policy of the life insurance may be called in question at any time within three years from the date of issuance of the
policy or the date of commencement of risk or the date of revival of the policy or the date of the rider to the policy,
whichever is later, on the ground that any statement of or suppression of a fact material to the expectancy of the life of
the insured was incorrectly made in the proposal or other document on the basis of which the policy was issued or
revived or rider issued:

Provided that the insurer shall have to communicate in writing to the insured or the legal representatives or nominees
of the insured the grounds and material on which such decision to repudiate the policy of life insurance is based:

Provided further that in case of repudiation of the policy on the ground of misstatement or suppression of a material
fact, and not on the ground of fraud, the premiums collected on the policy till the date of repudiation shall be paid to

the insured or the legal representatives or nominees of the insured within a period of ninety days from the date of such
repudiation

Explanation – For the purposes of this sub-section, the misstatement of or suppression of fact shall not be considered
material unless it has a direct bearing on the risk undertaken by the insurer, the onus is on the insurer to show that had
the insurer been aware of the said fact no life insurance policy would have been issued to the insured

(5) Nothing in this section shall prevent the insurer from calling for proof of age at any time if he is entitled to do so, and
no policy shall be deemed to be called in question merely because the terms of the policy are adjusted on subsequent
proof that the age of the life insured was incorrectly stated in the proposal

Prohibition of Rebates: Section 41 of the Insurance Act, 1938 as amended from time-to-time states:
(1) No person shall allow or offer to allow, either directly or indirectly, as an inducement to any person to take or renew or
continue an insurance in respect of any kind of risk relating to lives or property in India, any rebate of the whole or part
of the commission payable or any rebate of the premium shown on the policy, nor shall any person taking out or
renewing or continuing a policy accept any rebate, except such rebate as may be allowed in accordance with the
published prospectuses or tables of the insurer:

Provided that acceptance by an insurance agent of commission in connection with a policy of life insurance taken out
by himself on his own life shall not be deemed to be acceptance of a rebate of premium within the meaning of this
sub-section if at the time of such acceptance the insurance agent satisfies the prescribed conditions establishing that he
is a bona fide insurance agent employed by the insurer.

(2) Any person making default in complying with the provisions of this section shall be liable for a penalty which may
extend to ten lakh rupees.
