12/8/23, 10:25 PM Welcome to Top4Sure

The contract was drafted by the insurer and should not be able to benefit from any ambiguity
therein.

Explanation:

Contra proferentum rule (which effectively says against the offerin party) states that where contractual
language is capable of two alternative interpretations, it will be construed against the insurer who
drafted the contract and in favour of the insured, who accepts the wording.

This is because the insurer will have chosen the language used and should not be able to benefit from
any ambiguity contained within it.

Explanation:

In India, the insurance premium investment structure is laid down very clearly under the Insurance

12/8/23, 10:25 PM Welcome to Top4Sure

Explanation:

With the consent of both parties, the policy may be amended from time to time. The insurer then
prepares an endorsement for attachment to the policy.

Endorsements are normally used when the terms of an insurance contract are to be varied.
Endorsements are attached to the policy document and the two together constitute the evidence of the
insurance contract. Endorsements may be issued during the currency of the policy, e.g., when
alterations in the risks are to be

recorded. They could also be issued at the time of the issue of the policy to provide specific exclusion
from the cover or specific extension to include an additional peril. Endorsements are issued on
standard forms, or are separately typed, or are written on the policy itself.
