Got a grievance with your insurance provider? Here's how to file a complaint using IRDAI’s upgraded 2025 portal — a faster, easier way to get your issue resolved online.
IRDAI has introduced a simple digital platform to help you file and track your complaint — and here’s how to use it.
You bought insurance for peace of mind — but what happens when your claim is rejected, delayed, or unfairly handled?
That’s where the IRDAI’s new complaint portal comes in. In 2025, the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) launched a much more user-friendly and tech-powered system to help policyholders file complaints online, track progress, and escalate if needed.
Let’s walk you through the step-by-step process.
The official portal is now called Bima Bharosa System — it has replaced the earlier IGMS platform.
This is your central dashboard to lodge grievances, upload documents, check response timelines, and even escalate to the Insurance Ombudsman if required.
Click on “Register Complaint” and fill in the following:

Once submitted, you’ll receive a Complaint Reference Number. You can use it to track:
You’ll also get SMS/email updates on every action taken.
If your case remains unresolved even after following up through the portal, you can escalate to:
The portal will guide you through these options — including where to file and how.
Any grievance related to insurance can be submitted.
