You are ensuring that the individual has given genuine documents and is alive. Screenzaa helps you to know if the individual is a terrorist or a part of any investigation for example by EOW and many such lists.
The answer is Yes. If you have any kind of license to do business under the guidelines from RBI / SEBI / IRDA / PFRDA or associated entities or if you are practicing CA / CS or if you deal with Gems and Jewelry, you are mandated by the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) to mandatorily perform client screening.
The negative lists for individuals and firms get published and updated on a daily basis, so your existing relationship needs to be checked everyday against the list.
Ideally, every relationship that requires your trust should be validated through a screening process to protect your business from a larger future liability.
