the ground of fraud or on the ground that any statement of or suppression of a fact material to the expectancy of the life of

or rider issued. The insurer shall have to communicate in writing to the insured or the legal representatives or nominees or
assignees of the insured, the grounds and materials on which such decision is based.
No insurer shall repudiate a life insurance policy on the ground of fraud if the insured can prove that the mis-statement or
suppression of a material fact was true to the best of his knowledge and belief or that there was no deliberate intention to
suppress the fact or that such mis-statement or suppression are within the knowledge of the insurer. In case of fraud, the

of fraud, the premiums collected on the policy till the date of repudiation shall be paid.
Nothing in this section shall prevent the insurer from calling for proof of age at any time if he is entitled to do so, and no

that the age of the life insured was incorrectly stated in the proposal.
