1. When Should You Update Your Nominee?

  • Marriage: Adding spouse as the primary beneficial nominee.
  • Birth of Children: Adding minor children with a designated adult Appointee.
  • Demise of Previous Nominee: Appointing a new nominee promptly.
  • Family Milestone: Updating nominations to reflect current dependants.

2. Step-by-Step Procedure to Change Nominee

  1. Download the Change of Nomination Form from the insurer's portal or request it through your RakshaPoint ISP specialist.
  2. Fill in the new nominee's details: Full Name, Relationship, Date of Birth, Address, and Identification details.
  3. If the new nominee is a minor (<18 years), designate an Appointee (an adult family member) who can receive claim funds on behalf of the minor.
  4. Submit the form along with the Policy Document to the insurance company.
  5. The insurer records the change and issues an official Written Endorsement on your policy document.

Recommended Action Checklist

  • Verify current nominee names printed on your physical or electronic policy document.
  • Ensure immediate family members (spouse/children/parents) are appointed to provide direct beneficial protection.
  • Always obtain the written endorsement confirmation from the insurance company.
