IRDAI Reviews Feedback on Proposed Insurance Commission and Expense Regulations
The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) is reviewing over 650 stakeholder responses to its September consultation paper proposing tighter limits on insurance commissions and expense-of-management rules. The regulator aims to implement new guidelines by April 2027, linking remuneration to product type and distribution effort while reducing expense limits over five years. Industry feedback highlights concerns about revenue loss and job impacts, with smaller insurers urging scale-based regulations to accommodate their higher fixed costs and growth needs.
