Insurance Web Aggregator License in Puducherry

Puducherry's compact economy combines textile and pharmaceutical manufacturing with a steady tourism sector, giving it a genuinely mixed MSME base within a small geographic footprint. Any business in Puducherry planning to compare and sell insurance products online at scale needs IRDAI's Web Aggregator authorisation first.

StartRight4U supports Puducherry-based platforms through every stage of Web Aggregator licensing, including IRDAI's technical review.

Insurance Web Aggregator License — What It Covers

An Insurance Web Aggregator License authorises a company to operate a comparison platform for insurance products from multiple insurers, under IRDAI's specific Web Aggregator Regulations. The role centres on displaying and comparing products transparently — it can extend to facilitating a purchase, but always within the license's defined regulatory scope, distinct from full insurance broking.

Why This License Exists

Any platform comparing and steering customers toward specific insurance products is influencing a decision about a regulated financial product, which is why IRDAI requires a dedicated license before it can operate. The framework mandates accurate product representation, fair comparison methodology, and disclosure standards an unregulated website wouldn't be bound to follow.

Eligibility Criteria

• Incorporation under the Companies Act, 2013
• Minimum capital as set out in IRDAI's Web Aggregator Regulations
• A website meeting IRDAI's technical and disclosure standards for insurance comparison
• Promoters and directors who satisfy IRDAI's fit-and-proper standard
• Trained personnel to assist customers where the platform facilitates purchase

Documents Required

• Certificate of incorporation, MOA and AOA
• Net worth certificate and capital documentation
• A document describing website architecture and the comparison methodology used
• KYC and background details for directors and key managerial personnel
• Board resolution approving the application

The Licensing Process, Step by Step

1. Incorporate a company that satisfies the applicable capital requirement
2. Build the platform to IRDAI's technical and disclosure standards
3. Apply to IRDAI with capital documentation and platform details
4. Respond to IRDAI's review of the technology platform and promoter background
