HDFC Life Fast-Tracks Claim Settlement for Assam Flood Victims
A big insurance company called HDFC Life is helping people in Assam, where heavy floods have caused a lot of damage and sadly some people have passed away.
When someone has a life insurance policy with the company, their family can receive money from it.
To make that happen, the family needs to show official papers from the government, police, or a hospital proving the person has died.
HDFC Life says it will treat these requests as a priority so families can get help quickly.
Families can ask for help by calling a special phone number, sending a WhatsApp message, or writing an email.
They can also visit the company's branch offices in Jorhat, Sivasagar, or Golaghat.
A special officer named Ruma Konwar is available to help claimants as well.
The company wants every family affected by the floods to get the money they deserve without any trouble.
HDFC Life has enabled an expedited claim settlement framework for families impacted by the recent floods in Assam.
Claims can be initiated by nominees or legal heirs by providing proof of death issued by the Local Government, Police, or Hospitals.
Claimants can reach HDFC Life via a dedicated claim helpline, call centre, WhatsApp, and email, or by visiting branch offices.
Branch offices for affected areas are located in Jorhat, Sivasagar, and Golaghat, Assam.
Chief Operating Officer Sameer Yogishwar said every claim from flood-affected families will be treated as a priority for hassle-free payouts.
