IC11 Mock Test Sample 19

These questions cover fundamental insurance concepts including personal accident (PA) policy limits, underwriting, and regulatory framework. Janta Personal Accident policies have fixed sum insured limits, with weekly compensation caps for disability. Premium is the primary income source for insurers. The Tariff Advisory Committee regulates premium rates, while underwriters assess and accept risks. Open cover in marine insurance is an agreement, not a policy. Proposal forms are mandatory for most insurances. Business risks are generally non-insurable. Claims under Industrial All Risk policies are based on material damage. Insurance in India operates under the Insurance Act 1938 and IRDAI Act 1999, with annual reinsurance planning.
