Insurance Claims: What Happens If Both The Policyholder And Nominee Die?
Last Updated: If both the policyholder and nominee pass away, other legal heirs can file a claim. Legal heirs usually include close family members such as the spouse, children, or parents When taking out an insurance policy, most people name their spouse, children, or parents as nominees, with the natural intention for the claim amount to benefit their loved ones in the event of an untimely death. However, tragic situations sometimes arise where the nominee also passes away along with the policyholder. Many times, tragic road accidents and tragedies lead to this situation where families lose multiple members together. In such cases, how can the insurance money be claimed, and who gets the first right? According to the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI), if the policyholder and nominee die in the same accident, the insurance company can presume that the nominee died after the policyholder. In this case, the legal heirs of the nominee are considered eligible for the claim. While final decisions may vary depending on the insurer's terms and the specific policy, this principle generally applies. Legal Heirs Can Claim The Amount Insurance expert Manoj Jain explains that if both the policyholder and nominee die, other legal heirs can file a claim. Legal heirs typically include close relatives like the spouse, children, or parents. If a will exists, the individuals named in it can also claim the insurance amount. The Hindu Succession Act provides a detailed order of priority for such claims. Who Are Considered Legal Heirs? If No Close Relatives Exist If the policyholder has no heirs in Class 1 or Class 2, then extended family such as cousins from the father's or mother's side may claim the amount. If no legal heir is found, the insurance amount is transferred to the government. If The Policy Was Taken By A Woman For a female policyholder, her husband, sons, and daughters get first priority. If none of them are alive, the husband's family (parents, siblings, etc.) gets the next right. After them, her own parents come into consideration, followed by her father's and then mother's heirs. However, if the woman has left a will, that takes precedence. Documents Required To Claim Insurance In such emotionally and financially distressing times, knowing your legal rights and the correct claim process can offer some relief. If in doubt, consult a legal expert or financial advisor to guide you through the claim procedure.

Rs 21700 crore weapon: India to get much stronger as this project..., bad news for Pakistan, China due to...
Rs 21700 crore weapon: India to get much stronger as this project..., bad news for Pakistan, China due to... A leading Indian defence company — Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL), known for making Akashteer — is once again making headlines by playing a crucial role in Project Kusha – an initiative to develop a powerful air defence system like the Russian-made S-400. The ambitious project aims to neutralise aerial threats like missiles, suicide drones, and aircraft attacks. Notably, Project Kusha is led by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). As a development partner, BEL is working closely with the DRDO and sharing its insights to the design and production of crucial subsystems like – radars and control systems. BEL Chairman and Managing Director Manoj Jain, during the company's March quarter earnings call, confirmed that BEL is jointly developing several components of Project Kusha. 'We are jointly developing many components of Project Kusha,' he said. Project Kusha: Prototype Phase To Begin Soon As per reports, the prototype phase of Project Kusha is likely to begin in the coming months with BEL is working to build the first working model within 12-18 months. Once developed, the system will undergo severe trials and testing which will take 1-3 years. A decision on the system integrator(s) is yet to be made. BEL expressed confidence in their selection, should the authorities opt for two integrators. Project Kusha is designed to fill the gap between India's MR-SAM (Medium-Range Surface-to-Air Missile), and Russian-made S-400. MR-SAM has a range of 80 km, whereas S-400 covers up to 400 km. Project Kusha: Three Types Of Interceptor Missiles India plans to deploy a three-tiered missile defence system by 2028-2029. This system will comprise interceptor missiles with ranges of 150km, 250km, and 350km, intended for use by both the Indian Air Force and Navy. Project Kusha: Standout Feature Kusha's major feature includes its ability to intercept high-speed anti-ship ballistic missiles (ASBMs) which can travel at speeds of Mach 7, as per a report by Project Kusha: High-Speed Naval Defence Project Kusha's key feature is a naval adaptation of the M2 missile, capable of intercepting anti-ship ballistic missiles (ASBMs) travelling at speeds up to Mach 7 (approximately 8,645 km/h). This capability provides crucial protection for naval vessels against high-speed, sea-based missile attacks. Project Kusha: Strengthening India's Air Defence Another key feature of the project includes its ability to work smoothly with existing systems such as IAF's Integrated Air Command and Control System (IACCS) and Russian made S-400 missile system. Project Kusha can achieve an 80 percent single-missile kill rate. It can exceed 90 percent when using multiple missiles simultaneously. Once inducted, the system will enhance India's layered air defences against any aerial threat. Project Kusha: Budget-Backed and Battle-Ready It is worth mentioning that the project was approved by the Cabinet Committee on Security in 2022. The budget of the project was Rs 21,700 crore. The budget was sanctioned to build five squadrons for the IAF. Another major feature of the project is its naval version, which is capable of destroying anti-ship ballistic missiles (ASBMs). With this the Indian Navy will have a powerful tool to protect its frontline warships. This new system will enhance the navy's defences by complementing existing systems like Barak-8 and the Naval Ballistic Missile Defence System, creating a more robust overall defence.
