Customer
Insurance company
Government
IRDA

The correct answer is B. Insurance company.

An insurance agent is a person who sells insurance policies on behalf of an insurance company. They are typically licensed by the state in which they work and must pass a series of exams to demonstrate their knowledge of insurance products and regulations.

Insurance agents work with customers to understand their needs and then recommend the appropriate insurance policies. They also help customers file claims and resolve any problems that may arise.

Insurance agents are typically paid a commission on the policies they sell. This means that they earn a percentage of the premium that the customer pays for the policy.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Option A: A customer is not typically a representative of an insurance company.
  • Option C: The government is not typically a representative of an insurance company.
  • Option D: IRDA is the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India. It is a government body that regulates the insurance industry in India.
