About this exam

The Insurance Institute of India (III) publishes a subject code IC-89 within its professional examination catalogue, but the institute's dedicated IC-89 page could not be retrieved: the permitted URL returned an HTTP 404 Not Found error on 2026-11-05. Because of that, this page cannot responsibly state what IC-89 covers, who is eligible to take it, how many questions it contains, how long it runs, what it costs, or what score passes. What the retrieved III navigation does confirm is the wider framework a candidate operates in: professional examinations are administered under published Regulations, with a separate Examination Handbook, a syllabus area, an online examination schedule, help manuals for new and already-registered candidates, a photo and signature upload manual, an exemption route with its own fee structure, and a question paper query process. Study material is sold through the institute's Study Material section, with separate price lists for hard copy, e-book and audio book, and subject-wise addenda are published to update printed material. Candidates should treat the official III site as the authority for IC-89 specifics and check the current syllabus, timetable and handbook before planning preparation.

What you'll study

Common questions

About III IC-89 preparation

What is IC-89 and who is it for?

IC-89 is a subject code in the Insurance Institute of India's professional examination numbering. The institute's IC-89 page returned a 404 error when checked, so the subject title, target audience and syllabus could not be verified here. Confirm the current title and eligibility on the official III syllabus before enrolling.

How many questions are on the paper and how long is it?

Not verifiable. The source page for IC-89 was unavailable, so question count, duration and marks cannot be stated. Do not rely on figures from older study groups or forum posts. The official Examination Handbook and the online examination schedule published by III are the correct places to confirm the current pattern.

What is the passing score and what is the exam fee?

Neither is confirmed in the retrieved source. Passing marks and fees are set by the institute and change over time, so any number quoted second-hand is unsafe. Check the Regulations, the Examination Handbook and the current fee documents on the official site before you pay or plan a resit.

Is the exam online or paper-based, and can I take it in Hindi?

The retrieved pages show III running online examinations with a published online schedule and separate help manuals for new and already-registered candidates, and some subjects have both English and Hindi materials. Whether IC-89 is offered online and in which languages is not confirmed, so verify on the official time table.

How should I prepare if the syllabus page is unavailable?

Work from the official syllabus document for professional examinations, then order the prescribed study material through the Study Material section, choosing hard copy, e-book or audio book. Check the Addendum page for your subject before reading, because addenda update printed text. Build notes around the syllabus learning outcomes rather than around old question sets.

What are the most common ways candidates lose marks?

Studying from outdated material is the biggest risk, since subjects are revised and addenda are issued between print runs. Others include skipping the syllabus to guess the coverage, ignoring the examination handbook rules on registration and conduct, and leaving the photo and signature upload until the last moment, which can block an otherwise complete application.

Can I get an exemption from IC-89?

III publishes an exemption route with a help manual and a separate exemption fee structure, and it also recognises credits for prior learning. Whether IC-89 specifically qualifies, and on what grounds, is not stated in the retrieved source. Read the exemption manual and fee document, then confirm your case with the institute.

What if I think a question in my paper was wrong?

III publishes a question paper query process, listed under examination help manuals. Use that official channel within the window it specifies rather than raising it informally. The exact deadlines and accepted grounds are set out in the institute's own documentation, which the retrieved source does not reproduce.

How do I register, and what if I am already registered?

III maintains separate help manuals for new candidates and already-registered candidates, each with a PDF and a video walkthrough, plus a manual for photo and signature upload. Follow the manual that matches your status, and use the online examination schedule to pick a session before the registration cut-off.

Is this page officially connected to the Insurance Institute of India?

No. This is independent study material written for candidates searching for IC-89. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or operated by the Insurance Institute of India. Always treat the institute's own syllabus, regulations, handbook and notices as the authoritative source for exam rules and dates.
