Who Gets the Life Insurance Payout Nominee or Legal Heir

Remember:

  • Beneficial Nominee Priority: As per the Insurance Laws (Amendment) Act, 2015, immediate family members (spouse, parents, or children) have the first right to claim the payout.
  • Nominee vs. Legal Heir: If the nominee is not a beneficial nominee, legal heirs may claim the amount through succession laws.
  • Clear Documentation: Ensure the nominee details are updated to avoid legal disputes.
  • Legal Recourse: In case of conflicts, courts may decide based on will, succession laws, or nominee designation.
