“We have been informed by National Insurance Co, that they shall be directly offering banks with multiple policy variants viz.1 Lakh, 2 Lakhs, or 3 lakhs sum insured along with the option for reduced premium where retiree does not have surviving spouse and also where the retiree is survived by the spouse (retiree has passed away)”, the letter said.
High Incurred Claim Ratio (ICR) was 147.21% for retirees without domiciliary Policy and 163.31% for retirees with domiciliary Policy as of 31.07.2021, is the cause of the increase in premiums for renewal of the policies compared to the last year, it added
