CHAPTER-1
INRODUCTION

INSURANCE COMPANIES IN INDIA
In India, Insurance is a national matter, in which life and general insurance is
yet a booming sector with huge possibilities for different global companies,
as life insurance premiums account to 2.5% and general insurance premiums
account to 0.65% of India's GDP. The Indian Insurance sector has gone
through several phases and changes, especially after 1999, when the Govt. of
India opened up the insurance sector for private companies to solicit
insurance by passing Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority
(IRDA) Bill, allowing FDI up to 26%. Since then, the Insurance sector in
India is considered as a flourishing market amongst global insurance
companies. However, the largest life insurance company in India is still
owned by the government.
The history of Insurance in India dates back to 1818, when Oriental Life
Insurance Company was established by Europeans in Kolkata to cater to their
requirements. Nevertheless, there was discrimination among the life of
foreigners and Indians, as higher premiums were charged from the latter. In
1870, Indians took a sigh of relief when Bombay Mutual Life Assurance
Society, the first Indian insurance company covered Indian lives at normal
rates. Onset of the 20th century brought a drastic change in the Insurance
sector.
In 1912, the Govt. of India passed two acts - the Life Insurance Companies
Act, and the Provident Fund Act - to regulate the insurance business.
National Insurance Company Ltd, founded in 1906, is the oldest existing
insurance company in India. Earlier, the Insurance sector had only two state
insurers - Life Insurers i.e. Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), and
General Insurers i.e. General Insurance Corporation of India (GIC). In

December 2000, these subsidiaries were de-linked from parent company and
were declared independent insurance companies: Oriental Insurance
Company Limited, New India Assurance Company Limited, National
Insurance Company Limited and United India Insurance Company Limited.
With an annual growth rate of 15-20% and the largest number of life
insurance policies in force, the potential of the Indian insurance industry is
huge. Total value of the Indian insurance market (2004-05) is estimated at
Rs. 450 billion (US$10 billion).
The life insurance industry in India grew by an impressive 36%, with
premium income from new business at Rs. 253.43 billion during the fiscal
year 2004-2005, braving stiff competition from private insurers. This report,
"Indian Insurance Industry: New Avenues for Growth 2012", finds that the
market share of the state behemoth, LIC, has clocked 21.87% growth in
business at Rs.197.86 billion by selling 2.4 billion new policies in 2004-05.
But this was still not enough to arrest the fall in its market share, as private
players grew by 129% to mop up Rs. 55.57 billion in 2004-05 from Rs. 24.29
billion in 2003-04.
Though the total volume of LIC's business increased in the fiscal year (2004-
2005) compared to the previous one, its market share came down from 87.04
to 78.07%. The 14 private insurers increased their market share from about
13% to about 22% in a year's time. The figures for the first two months of the
fiscal year 2005-06 also speak of the growing share of the private insurers.
The share of LIC for this period has further come down to 75 percent, while
the private players have grabbed over 24 percent.

There are presently 12 general insurance companies with four public sector
companies and eight private insurers and private insurance companies
collectively have a 10% share of the non-life insurance market.

CHAPTER-2
COMPANY PROFILE

COMPANY PROFILE
The story of insurance is probably as old as the story of mankind. The same
instinct that prompts modern businessmen today to secure themselves against
loss and disaster existed in primitive men also. They too sought to avert the
evil consequences of fire and flood and loss of life and were willing to make
some sort of sacrifice in order to achieve security. Though the concept of
insurance is largely a development of the recent past, particularly after the
industrial era – past few centuries – yet its beginnings date back almost 6000
years.
Life Insurance in its modern form came to India from England in the year
1818. Oriental Life Insurance Company started by Europeans in Calcutta was
the first life insurance company on Indian Soil. All the insurance companies
established during that period were brought up with the purpose of looking
after the needs of European community and Indian natives were not being
insured by these companies. However, later with the efforts of eminent
people like Babu Muttylal Seal, the foreign life insurance companies started
insuring Indian lives. But Indian lives were being treated as sub-standard
lives and heavy extra premiums were being charged on them. Bombay
Mutual Life Assurance Society heralded the birth of first Indian life
insurance company in the year 1870, and covered Indian lives at normal
rates. Starting as Indian enterprise with highly patriotic motives, insurance
companies came into existence to carry the message of insurance and social
security through insurance to various sectors of society. Bharat Insurance
Company (1896) was also one of such companies inspired by nationalism.
The Swadeshi movement of 1905-1907 gave rise to more insurance
companies. The United India in Madras, National Indian and National
Insurance in Calcutta and the Co-operative Assurance at Lahore were

established in 1906. In 1907, Hindustan Co-operative Insurance Company
took its birth in one of the rooms of the Jorasanko, house of the great poet
Rabindranath Tagore, in Calcutta. The Indian Mercantile, General Assurance
and Swadeshi Life (later Bombay Life) were some of the companies
established during the same period. Prior to 1912 India had no legislation to
regulate insurance business. In the year 1912, the Life Insurance Companies
Act, and the Provident Fund Act were passed. The Life Insurance Companies
Act, 1912 made it necessary that the premium rate tables and periodical
valuations of companies should be certified by an actuary. But the Act
discriminated between foreign and Indian companies on many accounts,
putting the Indian companies at a disadvantage.
The first two decades of the twentieth century saw lot of growth in insurance
business. From 44 companies with total business-in-force as Rs.22.44 crore,
it rose to 176 companies with total business-in-force as Rs.298 crore in 1938.
During the mushrooming of insurance companies many financially unsound
concerns were also floated which failed miserably. The Insurance Act 1938
was the first legislation governing not only life insurance but also non-life
insurance to provide strict state control over insurance business. The demand
for nationalization of life insurance industry was made repeatedly in the past
but it gathered momentum in 1944 when a bill to amend the Life Insurance
Act 1938 was introduced in the Legislative Assembly. However, it was much
later on the 19th of January, 1956, that life insurance in India was
nationalized. About 154 Indian insurance companies, 16 non-Indian
companies and 75 provident were operating in India at the time of
nationalization. Nationalization was accomplished in two stages; initially the
management of the companies was taken over by means of an Ordinance,
and later, the ownership too by means of a comprehensive bill. The
Parliament of India passed the Life Insurance Corporation Act on the 19th of

June 1956, and the Life Insurance Corporation of India was created on 1st
September, 1956, with the objective of spreading life insurance much more
widely and in particular to the rural areas with a view to reach all insurable
persons in the country, providing them adequate financial cover at a
reasonable cost.
LIC had 5 zonal offices, 33 divisional offices and 212 branch offices, apart
from its corporate office in the year 1956. Since life insurance contracts are
long term contracts and during the currency of the policy it requires a variety
of services need was felt in the later years to expand the operations and place
a branch office at each district headquarter. Re-organization of LIC took
place and large numbers of new branch offices were opened. As a result of
re-organization servicing functions were transferred to the branches, and
branches were made accounting units. It worked wonders with the
performance of the corporation. It may be seen that from about 200.00 crores
of New Business in 1957 the corporation crossed 1000.00 crores only in the
year 1969-70, and it took another 10 years for LIC to cross 2000.00 crore
mark of new business. But with re-organization happening in the early
eighties, by 1985-86 LIC had already crossed 7000.00 crore Sum Assured on
new policies.
Today LIC functions with 2048 fully computerized branch offices, 100
divisional offices, 7 zonal offices and the corporate office. LIC’s Wide Area
Network covers 100 divisional offices and connects all the branches through
a Metro Area Network. LIC has tied up with some Banks and Service
providers to offer on-line premium collection facility in selected cities. LIC’s
ECS and ATM premium payment facility is an addition to customer
convenience. Apart from on-line Kiosks and IVRS, Info Centers have been
commissioned at Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad,
Kolkata, New Delhi, Pune and many other cities. With a vision of providing

easy access to its policyholders, LIC has launched its SATELLITE
SAMPARK offices. The satellite offices are smaller, leaner and closer to the
customer. The digitalized records of the satellite offices will facilitate
anywhere servicing and many other conveniences in the future.
LIC continues to be the dominant life insurer even in the liberalized scenario
of Indian insurance and is moving fast on a new growth trajectory surpassing
its own past records. LIC has issued over one crore policies during the
current year. It has crossed the milestone of issuing 1,01,32,955 new policies
by 15th Oct, 2005, posting a healthy growth rate of 16.67% over the
corresponding period of the previous year.
From then to now, LIC has crossed many milestones and has set
unprecedented performance records in various aspects of life insurance
business. The same motives which inspired our forefathers to bring insurance
into existence in this country inspire us at LIC to take this message of
protection to light the lamps of security in as many homes as possible and to
help the people in providing security to their families.
Some of the important milestones in the life insurance business in India are:
1818: Oriental Life Insurance Company, the first life insurance company on
Indian soil started functioning.
1870: Bombay Mutual Life Assurance Society, the first Indian life insurance
company started its business.
1912: The Indian Life Assurance Companies Act enacted as the first statute
to regulate the life insurance business.

1928: The Indian Insurance Companies Act enacted to enable the
government to collect statistical information about both life and non-life
insurance businesses.
1938: Earlier legislation consolidated and amended to by the Insurance Act
with the objective of protecting the interests of the insuring public.
1956: 245 Indian and foreign insurers and provident societies are taken over
by the central government and nationalized. LIC formed by an Act of
Parliament, viz. LIC Act, 1956, with a capital contribution of Rs. 5 crore
from the Government of India.
The General insurance business in India, on the other hand, can trace its roots
to the Triton Insurance Company Ltd., the first general insurance company
established in the year 1850 in Calcutta by the British.
Some of the important milestones in the general insurance business in India
are:
1907: The Indian Mercantile Insurance Ltd. set up, the first company to
transact all classes of general insurance business.
1957: General Insurance Council, a wing of the Insurance Association of
India, frames a code of conduct for ensuring fair conduct and sound business
practices.
1968: The Insurance Act amended to regulate investments and set minimum
solvency margins and the Tariff Advisory Committee set up.
1972: The General Insurance Business (Nationalization) Act, 1972
nationalized the general insurance business in India with effect from 1st
January 1973.

107 insurers amalgamated and grouped into four companies’ viz. the
National Insurance Company Ltd., the New India Assurance Company Ltd.,
the Oriental Insurance Company Ltd. and the United India Insurance
Company Ltd. GIC incorporated as a company.

WHAT IS LIFE INSURANCE?
Life insurance is a contract that pledges payment of an amount to the person
assured (or his nominee) on the happening of the event insured against.
The contract is valid for payment of the insured amount during:
• The date of maturity, or
• Specified dates at periodic intervals, or
• Unfortunate death, if it occurs earlier.
Among other things, the contract also provides for the payment of premium
periodically to the Corporation by the policyholder. Life insurance is
universally acknowledged to be an institution, which eliminates 'risk',
substituting certainty for uncertainty and comes to the timely aid of the
family in the unfortunate event of death of the breadwinner.
By and large, life insurance is civilization’s partial solution to the problems
caused by death. Life insurance, in short, is concerned with two hazards that
stand across the life-path of every person:
1. That of dying prematurely leaves a dependent family to fend for itself.
2. That of living till old age without visible means of support.
Life Insurance Vs. Other Savings
Contract of Insurance:
A contract of insurance is a contract of utmost good faith technically known
as uberrima fides. The doctrine of disclosing all material facts is embodied in
this important principle, which applies to all forms of insurance.
At the time of taking a policy, policyholder should ensure that all questions

in the proposal form are correctly answered. Any misrepresentation, non-
disclosure or fraud in any document leading to the acceptance of the risk
would render the insurance contract null and void.
Protection:
Savings through life insurance guarantee full protection against risk of death
of the saver. Also, in case of demise, life insurance assures payment of the
entire amount assured (with bonuses wherever applicable) whereas in other
savings schemes, only the amount saved (with interest) is payable.
Aid to Thrift:
Life insurance encourages 'thrift'. It allows long-term savings since payments
can be made effortlessly because of the 'easy installment' facility built into
the scheme. (Premium payment for insurance is either monthly, quarterly,
half yearly or yearly). For example: The Salary Saving Scheme popularly
known as SSS provides a convenient method of paying premium each month
by deduction from one's salary. In this case the employer directly pays the
deducted premium to LIC. The Salary Saving Scheme is ideal for any
institution or establishment subject to specified terms and conditions.
Liquidity:
In case of insurance, it is easy to acquire loans on the sole security of any
policy that has acquired loan value. Besides, a life insurance policy is also
generally accepted as security, even for a commercial loan.
Tax Relief:
Life Insurance is the best way to enjoy tax deductions on income tax and
wealth tax. This is available for amounts paid by way of premium for life
insurance subject to income tax rates in force.
Assesses can also avail of provisions in the law for tax relief. In such cases

the assured in effect pays a lower premium for insurance than otherwise.
Money When You Need It:
A policy that has a suitable insurance plan or a combination of different
plans can be effectively used to meet certain monetary needs that may arise
from time-to-time. Children's education, start-in-life or marriage provision or
even periodical needs for cash over a stretch of time can be less stressful with
the help of these policies.
Alternatively, policy money can be made available at the time of one's
retirement from service and used for any specific purpose, such as, purchase
of a house or for other investments. Also, loans are granted to policyholders
for house building or for purchase of flats (subject to certain conditions).
Who Can Buy A Policy?
Any person who has attained majority and is eligible to enter into a valid
contract can insure himself/herself and those in whom he/she has insurable
interest.
Policies can also be taken, subject to certain conditions, on the life of one's
spouse or children. While underwriting proposals, certain factors such as the
policyholder’s state of health, the proponent's income and other relevant
factors are considered by the Corporation.
Insurance For Women
Prior to nationalization (1956), many private insurance companies would
offer insurance to female lives with some extra premium or on restrictive
conditions. However, after nationalization of life insurance, the terms under
which life insurance is granted to female lives have been reviewed from
time-to-time.
At present, women who work and earn an income are treated at par with

men. In other cases, a restrictive clause is imposed, only if the age of the
female is up to 30 years and if she does not have an income attracting
Income Tax.
Medical And Non-Medical Schemes
Life insurance is normally offered after a medical examination of the life to
be assured. However, to facilitate greater spread of insurance and also to
avoid inconvenience, LIC has been extending insurance cover without any
medical examination, subject to certain conditions.
With Profit And Without Profit Plans
An insurance policy can be 'with' or 'without' profit. In the former, bonuses
disclosed, if any, after periodical valuations are allotted to the policy and are
payable along with the contracted amount.
In 'without' profit plan the contracted amount is paid without any addition.
The premium rate charged for a 'with' profit policy is therefore higher than
for a 'without' profit policy.
Keyman Insurance
Keyman insurance is taken by a business firm on the life of key employee(s)
to protect the firm against financial losses, which may occur due to the
premature demise of the Keyman.

OBJECTIVES OF LIC
• Spread Life Insurance widely and in particular to the rural areas and to
the socially and economically backward classes with a view to reaching all
insurable persons in the country and providing them adequate financial cover
against death at a reasonable cost.
• Maximize mobilization of people's savings by making insurance-
linked savings adequately attractive.
• Bear in mind, in the investment of funds, the primary obligation to its

interest of the community as a whole; the funds to be deployed to the best
advantage of the investors as well as the community as a whole, keeping in
view national priorities and obligations of attractive return.
• Conduct business with utmost economy and with the full realization
that the moneys belong to the policyholders.
• Act as trustees of the insured public in their individual and collective
capacities.
• Meet the various life insurance needs of the community that would
arise in the changing social and economic environment.

lump sum on death due to accident up to age 70 of life assured. In case of
permanent disability of the life assured due to accident this additional Sum
assured is payable in installments.

These are the optional benefits that can be added to your basic plan for extra

Buying a life insurance contract is a long-term commitment. However,
surrender values are available on the plan on earlier termination of the

The guaranteed surrender value is 30% of the basic premiums paid excluding

Corporation’s policy on surrenders:

on the duration for which premiums have been paid and the policy duration
at the date of surrender. In some circumstances, in case of early termination
of the policy, the surrender value payable may be less than the total premium

years. If the sum assured is Rs 45,000 then he has to pay a premium of Rs
34800.75. But for a sum assured amount of Rs 50,000 he will have to pay a
premium of Rs 36734.13 only, thus getting a 5% rebate in premium.

UNIT PLANS-I
1. Market plus-I
This is a unit linked pension plan wherein the pension is payable after a
specified period. Four types of investment Funds namely Bond, Secured,
Balanced and Growth Fund are offered. Though primarily a Pension product,
the plan has many attractive features and options which make it an ideal
Retirement solution for the future.
BENEFITS
A) - On Vesting:
On vesting of the policy, the Fund Value will be utilized to provide a

pension based on the then prevailing Annuity rates. An option to commute
up to one third of the payable benefit in a lump sum is available.
B) On Death:
In event of the unfortunate death of the policy holder the Fund Value along
with the Riders, if any, will be payable in a lump sum or as a pension.
OPTIONS
Three attractive benefits, viz. - Life Cover, Accident Benefit and Critical
Illness Benefit are available as options or riders. Life option is available
within certain limits depending on the age at entry of the life assured. The
other options are available to all proposers who have opted for Life Cover.
The quantum of the risk covers can also be reduced; subject to the minimum
limits, once a year. A policy can be taken without any of the riders also.
REVIVAL
An attractive feature of the plan is that provided the premiums have been
paid for a minimum period of three years, all the riders under the policy will
continue for a period of two years from the due date of first unpaid premium
by deduction of relevant charges from the policy fund. This period of two
years is called the “Revival Period”. Further, if premiums have been paid for
a minimum period of three years, revival can be effected merely by paying
the arrears of premium, within the Revival Period.
PAYMENT OF PREMIUMS
Premiums can be paid in a lump sum (single premium) and also by monthly
(ECS), quarterly, half-yearly and yearly modes.
