My name is Arpita, I’m 42 years old, a mother of two, my daughter is 15 and my son is 18. I live in Banswara, Rajasthan. I’ve always been proud of my education. I completed my B.Sc. before getting married, and like most women of my generation, I thought I’d build a career after marriage. But life had other plans.

After I moved to Banswara with my husband, I quickly realised there were no real job opportunities for someone like me. I applied to a few schools, coaching centres, and offices, but everything was either too far, paid too little, or required long hours away from home. Eventually, I gave up. I settled into motherhood, caring for my kids, home, and in-laws.

But even years later, a part of me wondered how to do anything meaningful from home.

I decided to dreaming again

Now that my kids are older and more independent, I found myself thinking, “Could I start again?” But the same problem remained: No office job in Banswara allowed me to work from home.

I did appear for some interviews, even cleared one for a clerical role, but it was in Udaipur and required me to relocate or travel daily. That wasn’t an option. I still had my home to run—my in-laws, my family, and my children’s needs came first.

Then one afternoon, something unexpected happened.

I was shopping in the local market when I saw a banner outside a medical store. It said:

“Become a POSP Insurance Agent in Banswara – Work from Anywhere”

It felt like someone had written that banner just for me.

That evening, I called the InsuranceDekho customer care number printed on the banner. A very polite person explained the entire process to me. It sounded simple:

  • Create an account on the InsuranceDekho website

  • Complete the insurance agent training Banswara team sends via online videos

  • Clear the IRDAI certification exam

  • And start selling insurance as a certified POSP Advisor

They also told me that the minimum age to become insurance agent in Banswara is 18 years, which gave me confidence that this was a career open to many others like me.

The exam is online, consists of 50 multiple-choice questions, and lasts 60 minutes. I used their study material and found additional mock tests online. To my surprise, it wasn’t very tough, the questions were basic, practical, and easy to understand.

When I got my results and saw that I had passed, I got emotional. It felt like a part of me had come alive again.

My first sale boosted my confidence

I started small. I approached a few relatives, some in Banswara and some living outside. I explained the benefits of family health insurance, using examples I’d learned. It wasn’t easy at first. People had doubts, and I didn’t know how to convince them.

But the InsuranceDekho team stepped in and taught me how to sell insurance policies in Banswara by understanding people’s concerns and building trust. I learnt how to answer difficult questions and how to listen more than I speak. Slowly, things clicked.

I sold my first two policies. That small win gave me a huge confidence boost.

There’s a school just down the road where many of the teachers know me. I started talking to them about motor insurance. A few of them asked me to help with their car and bike insurance renewals. I used the InsuranceDekho platform to compare plans and complete policies online within minutes.

Now, I earn Rs. 20,000 to Rs. 25,000 per month, right from my home in Banswara. This is more than enough to support my family and contribute to household expenses. And I’m even saving for my daughter’s and son’s college.

If someone had told me a year ago that a housewife like me could become POSP agent in Banswara, I would have laughed. But today, it’s real.

My advice to other housewives

If you’re educated, sitting at home, and wondering how to become an insurance agent in Banswara, let me tell you, you can. You don’t need to move to a city. You don’t need any investment. Just a smartphone, internet, and a little bit of courage.

And yes, I’ve had doubts. I’ve made mistakes. But every step of the way, InsuranceDekho was there to guide me.

Today, I am not just a mother or a homemaker; I am a certified insurance advisor, contributing to my home and planning for my children’s future. And that, to me, is true success.

If you're searching for the right balance between work and family, and wondering what the insurance agent salary in Banswara could look like, let me tell you there’s no limit.
