How to Open Insurance Demat Account?

Holding many insurance policies and placing them safely was a tedious job. Now you can open electronic account and hold your policies under one online account. This step was initiated by our previous finance minister P. Chidambaram who launched IRDA's insurance repository system (IRS). This move was to ensure transparency in the field.
This account facilitates the policyholder to hold all types of insurance policies such as Life, General and Group Health in a single electronic insurance account. Account can be accessed online anytime, anywhere. Also, transaction can be viewed anytime.
