A life insurance policy is one of the most important covers you require to secure the financial well-being of your loved ones. The policy pays death or maturity benefits to your nominees when a claim is approved by the insurance company.

According to the Prevention of Money-laundering (Maintenance of Records) Second Amendment Rules, 2017, linking the Aadhar and PAN is essential to avail of financial services.
