Mis-selling & Insurance Fraud

गलत-बिक्री व धोखाधड़ी

India’s most under-reported insurance crime. A relationship-manager at your bank sells you a ULIP as a “tax-saving FD”. A door-to-door agent fills your form with a wrong DOB to qualify for commission. Three years later you discover your policy is nothing like what you were told. We expose this — and recover your money.

The Challenge

You Were Told One Thing. The Policy Says Another.

Mis-selling is rampant across Indian retail insurance — particularly in bancassurance channels — because agent commissions are highest on policies the customer least understands. ULIPs sold as FDs, term policies sold as savings plans, single-premium products sold with promises of “loan against policy after 3 years” — the patterns are predictable, but the regulatory remedies are powerful when invoked correctly.

Our Approach

A Forensic, Documentation-Led Rebuilding of Your Case

We collect every piece of evidence: the original proposal form (often forged), bank statements showing the premium debit, recordings if available, WhatsApp conversations with the agent, and the IRDAI-mandated benefit illustration. We then file a structured complaint with the insurer’s Grievance Redressal Officer, escalating to the IRDAI Bima Bharosa portal and Ombudsman if not resolved.

What You Get

Concrete Outcomes, Not Empty Promises

Common Questions

Quick Answers to What Most Clients Ask

Mis-selling claims are admissible up to 3 years from discovery, not from purchase date. If you only realised the mis-selling recently, the case is still very much actionable.
Not at all. The insurer is vicariously liable for distribution-channel conduct under IRDAI regulations. Whether the agent is still employed is irrelevant.
In a successful mis-selling case the relief is restitutionary — full premium refund with interest, often 8% p.a. from the date of payment. Not surrender value.
Yes. Bancassurance distribution makes the bank a corporate agent, jointly liable with the insurer. We routinely include the bank in our complaint.
