In insurance, the insurance policy is a contract (generally a standard form contract) between the insurer and the insured, known as the policyholder, which determines the claims which the insurer is legally required to pay.An insurance contract commences when the life insurance company issues a first premium receipt (FPR). The FPR is the evidence that the policy contract has begun.
Any instrument mentioned in Schedule I to the Indian Stamp Act is chargeable to duty as prescribed in the schedule. These include affidavit, lease, memorandum and articles of company, bill of exchange, bond, mortgage, conveyance, receipt, debenture, share, insurance policy, partnership deed, proxy, share etc. The Government can reduce or remit whole or part of duties payable. So, all the statements are correct.
