About this exam

IC-76 is a paper code in the Professional Examination stream of the Insurance Institute of India (III), the body behind the Licentiate, Associateship and Fellowship designations and the specialised diploma courses listed on its site. Candidates encounter IC-76 alongside subject codes such as IC-01 Principles of Insurance, IC-45 General Insurance Underwriting, IC-74 Liability Insurance and IC-89 Management Accounting in the institute's published study-material and addendum lists. The public III home page retrieved for this page does not enumerate the IC-76 syllabus, so the subject title, domain weightings and item counts should be confirmed against the current study course material and the Professional Examination regulations before you build a study plan. The same page shows that III periodically revises its study course materials and examination fees, and it maintains separate FAQ pages for the Professional Exam and for Study Course matters, which are the correct first stop for syllabus and format queries. Preparation therefore follows the standard III pattern: obtain the current prescribed course material for the paper, work through the addendum for any updates, practise with the institute's model question banks where published, and register online within the examination session window. This page is an independent study resource and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or operated by the Insurance Institute of India; always treat the institute's own site as authoritative for syllabus, fees, dates and results.

Common questions

About III IC-76 preparation

What exactly is IC-76?

IC-76 is a paper code in the Insurance Institute of India's Professional Examination numbering, the same series that includes IC-01, IC-45, IC-74 and IC-89. The institute's public home page does not list the IC-76 subject title, so confirm the syllabus from the current study course material and the Professional Exam regulations rather than from third-party summaries.

Is IC-76 part of the Licentiate, Associateship or Fellowship?

III's Professional Examinations section lists Licentiate, Associateship and Fellowship as the three designations, plus specialised diploma courses and jointly offered courses. Which designation a given paper counts toward, and any optional or compulsory status, is set out in the Professional Examination regulations, not on the home page.

How do I register for the examination?

Registration runs through the institute's online examination portal, reached from the Professional Exam menu. The site distinguishes new candidates from already registered candidates and provides separate PDF and video help manuals for each. Read the help manual for your category before starting, because photo and signature upload requirements are a common cause of rejected applications.

How much does it cost, and have fees changed?

III has announced a revision of Professional Examination Fees with effect from 1st April 2026, so any figure you saw in older study forums may be out of date. The current fee schedule is published on the institute's site under the Professional Examination section; check it there immediately before paying rather than relying on cached or reprinted amounts.

Which study material should I use?

Use the prescribed course material for the paper, plus the addendum list, which carries corrections and updates to printed and e-book editions. III notes new and revised study course materials from September 2026 for online examinations, and revised materials introduced from the June 2026 online examination, so confirm you hold the current edition before you start.

Are the materials available digitally?

Yes. The Study Material section offers hard copy, e-book and audio book options with a published price list. Note that 5% GST applies to e-books from 20th March 2026, so the digital price you see quoted in older posts may not include the current tax treatment. Check the price list before ordering.

What are the common reasons candidates fail or lose marks?

The recurring pattern is studying from superseded material. III has revised course content and fees more than once in 2026, and addenda are published separately from the main text. Candidates who skip the addendum, ignore the current regulations and practise only from old question sets are the ones most often caught out by changed definitions and figures.

Can I get an exemption from a paper?

III operates an exemption route, with a dedicated Exemption page and an application link that for the December 2026 session becomes available from 1st December 2026. Eligibility conditions, the papers open to exemption and any prior-learning credit rules are governed by the regulations, so read those before relying on an exemption.

Where do I check results and exam schedules?

Both sit on the institute's own site: the Online Examination Schedule page and the prize-winners and results listings by session. Because sessions, timings and result dates are published per session, treat any schedule you find elsewhere as unverified and confirm against the current official notice before booking travel or leave.

Is this page an official III resource?

No. This is an independent study page written for candidates searching the IC-76 code. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or operated by the Insurance Institute of India. For anything binding, including syllabus scope, fees, dates, exemptions and results, use the institute's own website and its Professional Exam and Study Course FAQ pages.
