SECTION 45 OF INSURANCE ACT, 1938:
The provision of Secon 45 of the Insurance Act, 1938 shall be as
amended from me to me. The simplied version of this provision is
as under:
Provisions regarding policy not being called into queson in terms of
Secon 45 of the Insurance Act, 1938 are as follows:
1. No Policy of Life Insurance shall be called in queson on any ground
whatsoever aer expiry of 3 years from
a. the date of issuance of policy or
b. the date of commencement of risk or
c. the date of revival of policy or
d. the date of rider to the policy whichever is later.
2. On the ground of fraud, a policy of Life Insurance may be called in
queson within 3 years from
a. the date of issuance of policy or
b. the date of commencement of risk or
c. the date of revival of policy or
d. the date of rider to the policy whichever is later.
For this, the insurer should communicate in wring to the insured or
legal representave or nominee or assignees of insured, as applicable,
menoning the ground and materials on which such decision is based.
3. Fraud means any of the following acts commied by insured or by his
agent, with the intent to deceive the insurer or to induce the insurer to
issue a life insurance policy:
a. The suggeson, as a fact of that which is not true and which the
insured does not believe to be true;
b. The acve concealment of a fact by the insured having knowledge
or belief of the fact;
16
c. Any other act ed to deceive; and
d. Any such act or omission as the law specically declares to be
fraudulent.
4. Mere silence is not fraud unless, depending on circumstances of the
case, it is the duty of the insured or his agent keeping silence to speak
or silence is in itself equivalent to speak.
5. No Insurer shall repudiate a life insurance Policy on the ground of
Fraud, if the Insured / beneciary can prove that the misstatement was
true to the best of his knowledge and there was no deliberate intenon
to suppress the fact or that such mis-statement of or suppression of
material fact are within the knowledge of the insurer. Onus of disproving
is upon the policyholder, if alive, or beneciaries.
6. Life insurance Policy can be called in queson within 3 years on
the ground that any statement of or suppression of a fact material to
expectancy of life of the insured was incorrectly made in the proposal
or other document basis which policy was issued or revived or rider
issued. For this, the insurer should communicate in wring to the
insured or legal representave or nominee or assignees of insured,
as applicable, menoning the ground and materials on which decision
to repudiate the policy of life insurance is based.
7. In case repudiaon is on ground of mis-statement and not on fraud, the
premium collected on policy ll the date of repudiaon shall be paid
to the insured or legal representave or nominee or assignees of
insured, within a period of 90 days from the date of repudiaon.
8. Fact shall not be considered material unless it has a direct bearing on
the risk undertaken by the insurer. The onus is on insurer to show that
if the insurer had been aware of the said fact, no life insurance policy
would have been issued to the insured.
9. The insurer can call for proof of age at any me if he is entled to do so
and no policy shall be deemed to be called in queson merely because
the terms of the policy are adjusted on subsequent proof of age of
life insured. So, this Secon will not be applicable for quesoning age
or adjustment based on proof of age submied subsequently.

Act, 1938 and only a simplied version prepared for general informaon.

inducement to any person to take out or renew or connue an
insurance in respect of any kind of risk relang to lives or property in
India, any rebate of the whole or part of the commission payable or any
