New Delhi: The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDAI) has warned Sahara India Life Insurance Co for non-compliance of 'expenses of management' (EoM) norms and asked it to bring the expenditure levels within the limits by the end of 2016-17.
"Owing to the fact that non-compliance with the EoM limits has occurred for the first time in the ten years of its operations and considering the submissions of the insurer as regards to steps being taken to improve upon the business...the insurer is hereby warned of the contravention with the provisions...and advised to bring the expenditure levels within the prescribed limits under Rule 17D of the Insurance Rules, 1939 by the end of financial year 2016-17," insurance regulator IRDAI said in an order.
