It may be noted that the IRDA had earlier provide grace period for payment life insurance premium by an additional 30 days in view of the Covid-19 pandemic. However, as the lockdown has been extended till May 17, the regulator has extended the grace period keeping in mind the difficulty faced by some policyholders.

“The policyholders are requested to note that the objective of the grace period allowed is to pay all premiums due within that period so as to keep the policy coverage in force,” IRDAI said in a release.
