After registering the Insurance Self Network Platform , applicants are expected to follow some IRDAI (Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority) post-registration compliances. The IRDAI expects the applicant to adhere to such compliances as the ISNP license holder. Compliances must be submitted for the proper functioning and operation of these ISNPs in the insurance market. In case of any violations of these compliances, the ISNP can invite disciplinary actions against itself from the IRDAI.
So, for the smooth functioning of the E-commerce platform and to provide insurance-related services, the newly incorporated ISNP must adhere to the IRDAI’s compliance. In addition, this adherence will aid the ISNP in the renewal process of its license. In this article, we have discussed the compliances that the ISNP needs to follow after its new registration.
ISNP must maintain its Online Presence
Every registered ISNP must make itself accessible via a regular internet website or a mobile application. They must enroll only registered insurers that are operating in the Insurance market. Also, these insurers must possess a certificate of registration granted by the IRDAI.

The ISNP is prohibited from displaying any information that misinforms the policyholder and is harmful to them and also not approved by the IRDAI on its website. Insurance products on the ISNP must be up to date. They must reflect the true picture of the offered insurance service(s).
The ISNP must not display products of other registered insurers except for a combination of insurance products with other companies. The ISNP of an Insurance Intermediary must not make any commitment to insurers for their product’s sales. It must also not favor any one insurer over others. Every registered ISNP certification holder must provide details of its procedures, processes, and timelines for pre-sales solicitation for plan policies.
