Observations of the Committee
The department clarified to the query raised by the Committee that the rates mentioned are per month.
The Committee observed that the sponsorship of the Agency under serial no 1 has already expired, it can be agreed to the recommendations of DGR if it has renewed the sponsorship or recommended only one agency. Since names of three agencies are provided by DGR, IRDAI can choose anyone among them suitable to IRDAI since the rates quoted by these agencies are same.
The Committee felt that since the sponsorship of the Agency under serial no 1 has already expired, it recommended M/S. 3161/ DONDAPATI SUDHAKAR RAO SECURITY AGENCY at the rate of Rs. 4,56,179.92 per month for 10 persons.
