insured the grounds and materials on which such decision is based.
Explanation I- For the purposes of this sub-section, the expression “fraud” means any of the following acts committed by the insured or
by his agent, with the intent to deceive the insurer or to induce the insurer to issue a life insurance policy:-
(a) the suggestion, as a fact of that which is not true and which the insured does not believe to be true;
(b) the active concealment of a fact by the insured having knowledge or belief of the fact;
(c) any other act fitted to deceive; and
(d) any such act or omission as the law specially declares to be fraudulent.

Explanation II- Mere silence as to facts likely to affect the assessment of the risk by the insurer is not fraud, unless the circumstances of
the case are such that regard being had to them, it is the duty of the insured or his agent, keeping silence to speak, or unless his silence is,
in itself, equivalent to speak.

(3) Notwithstanding anything contained in sub-section (2), no insurer shall repudiate a life insurance policy on the ground of fraud if the
insured can prove that the misstatement of 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 misstatement of or suppression of a material fact are within the knowledge of
the insurer:
Provided that in case of fraud, the onus of disproving lies upon the beneficiaries, in case the policyholder is not alive.
Explanation – A person who solicits and negotiates a contract of insurance shall be deemed for the purpose of the formation of the
contract, to be the agent of the insurer.

(4) A policy of life insurance may be called in question at any time within three years from the date of issuance of the policy or the date
of commencement of risk or the date of revival of the policy or the date of the rider to the policy, whichever is later, on the ground that
any statement of or suppression of a fact material to the expectancy of the life of the insured was incorrectly made in the proposal or other
document on the basis of which the policy was issued or revived or rider issued:

Provided that 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 to repudiate the policy of life insurance is based:

Provided further that in case of repudiation of the policy on the ground of misstatement or suppression of a material fact, and not on the
ground of fraud the premiums collected on the policy till the date of repudiation shall be paid to the insured or the legal representatives or
nominees or assignees of the insured within a period of ninety days from the date of such repudiation.

Explanation - For the purposes of this sub-section, the misstatement of or suppression of fact shall not be considered material unless it has
a direct bearing on the risk undertaken by the insurer, the onus is on the insurer to show that had the insurer been aware of the said fact no
life insurance policy would have been issued to the insured.

(5) 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 policy shall
be deemed to be called in question merely because the terms of the policy are adjusted on subsequent proof that the age of the life insured
was incorrectly stated in the proposal.
