The document discusses the life insurance sector in India, noting that it is one of the two largest markets for life insurance products growing at 15% annually due to factors like a large insurable population, high savings rate of 25%, and low insurance penetration of 2.3%. It also briefly compares India's life insurance market to China's, noting both have low insurance penetration rates while China has a higher savings rate of 35%.

6. Purpose of study
During my summer training in the Housing Development finance
corporation standard life insurance company limited (HDFCSL). I have
gotten the work of Analyzing financial need and manage the funds of the
policies. The main focus area of the company is to manage and focus of
customer profit which gets through managing the funds of the policy. Indeed
the work of financial analyst is very significant and gives more and more
customer assistance to the customer so company can earn customer base and
through strong customer base gets more and more policies distribution and
company can sell the policies. The main motive of this project is analysis of
financials of HDFC LIFE.
HDFCSL is one of India‟s leading private insurance companies.
It offers both individual and group insurance solution. It is a joint venture
between HDFC and a group of company of Standard Life. I have chosen
insurance sector as the place for summer training because in these days this
sector is in boom and it will never go down. All people invest their money in
insurance and get more benefited. In the sector the work of Finance is more
challenging then the other sector because there is 17 insurance companies in
the market who are giving competition to each other and the work of
convince people for investment in respective company is a challenging work
and success in the sector proves that the respective person is a good finan ce
adv isor . Today insurance sector India is on boom because all people want to
invest. Those who don‟t know about investment in share market and don‟t
want to invest in mutual funds they invest in insurance sector. Insurance
sector gives them investment plus risk cover. Those who don‟t want to take
risk in the investment go to insurance sector. It also gives income tax benefits
to the peoples. Insurance company are now launching ULIP plan and gives
chance to the investor to choose their investment pattern according to their
fund investment table. This fund investment tells us that how much the
investor want to take risk. Generally in the ULIP plan, the thesis is that “The
more you risk the more you have profit.”

7. AIM OF STUDY
During the summer training I have done my work through telephone calling,
natural market, and contact person having gone to their home. In the entire
work I have contacted person who is policy holder of the company or
willing customer and prospect customers of the company
I found that most of person can earn as well as get insured t h r o u g h
insurance company and save taxes, life assurance with little effort, which will
give him back support as a HEAD of the family in the diverse situation.
This project will help to understand the current market scenario and
marketing in stiff competition. Being a student of management I can draw the
relevant conclusion from the financial analyze and give the appropriate
suggestion to the organization.
The company can take decision according to the suggestions and it
will provide better experience to the students for their bright carrier. My
project will provide help in these matters which are thus:-
Analyze the people perception about HDFC
Study financial markets and analyze the financials of the
company
To find out the competitive edge of the company over the competitors.

8. OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
The project was an attempt to explore the “Analyzing financial need and
manage the funds of the policies” in HDFC LIFE. The project was started on
10th June, after knowing all the relevant information about the company
insurance product and policies and its competitor‟s insurance products in
accordance with the prescribed schedule mentioned by management of HDFC
LIFE.
The project started in Janakpuri branch where covering all the investors whom
funds are down and bearing loss. In this process I meet 90 policy holders who facing
loss .I have tried to convince them to continue with company and remain with
the company. During my work I found the perception of the people about
insurance, what they desire from it, and if they su ff er loss than wh at th e y
think . What the organization should do for the policyholder who suffering
from loss. Many of the customer is not aware about the share market and if
they suffer loss than they blame either company or agent/sales manager. So I
have to manage the customers to remain with us and provide them the best
financial solution to them
As I can say this project gives the abstract of my work at HDFC LIFE as
financial analyst

LIFE
INRODUCTION OF HDFC LIFE
Risk is found everywhere. It cannot be eliminated together, only it can be
minimized. Human life is full of risk. There is a risk when a man walks on the
road, travels in a bus, train or an aero plane and when he is engaged in trade,
profession or business. Also there is a risk when property is destroyed by fire,
flood, earthquakes, etc. Thus, the involvement of risk is inescapable.
Risk Percentage
Drought 4%
Earthquakes 20%
Floods 35%
Storms 41%

11. Insurance is a method by which we can spread over the risk. It is a way of
reducing uncertainty of occurrence of an event. Insurance is entirely a method
of co-operative endeavor where in the loss caused by a particular risk is spread
over among a large section of persons. Insurance is a process in which a large
number of persons collect their small contributions, called the premium, in a
pool and out of this losses are paid to the suffering persons.
The Business of insurance is related to the protection of the economic
values of assets. Every asset has a value. The asset would have been created
through the efforts of the owner. The asset is valuable to the owner, because he
expects to get some benefits from it. It is a benefit because it meets some of a
factory or a cow, the product generated by it is sold and income is generated. In
the case of a motor car, it provides comfort and convenience in transportation.
There is no direct income. Both are assets and provide benefits.

19. CHAPTER-2
DISCRIPTIVE
WORK

20. LIFE INSURANCE SECTOR:
India is emerging a some of the two of the largest markets in the world for life
insurance products, the other being China. In the case of India, the three key
drivers of growth are a large insurable population, a high savings rate, roughly
at about 25 percent and a low penetration, at a mere 2.3 percent. In the 11
months of fiscal year 2004-05, life insurance companies collected premium
worth Rs172 billion and the market grew by a whopping 32.4 per cent during
the year. Of this, the public sector Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) had the
lion's share of the market with premium totaling Rs134 billion. Private sector
players recorded a spectacular growth of 129 percent over the last year,
compared to LIC's growth of 18 percent. India's GDP growth rate of 6 percent
per annum holds great potential for the sector. According to one estimate real
life premium are expected to grow at a compounded annual rate of 15 per cent
over the next ten years.
How does India's life insurance market compare with China's? While India's
market is currently the fifth largest, China's is the third largest in Asia after
Japan and Korea. Low penetration rate of insurance products is common to
IndiaandChina-atjustabout2.3 percent. In China, the savings rate is at 35
percent while for India it is a little lower at 25 percent. A large part of the
growth of the life insurance market in China was driven by the conversion of
bank deposits into endowment products. Demographically China's population is
ageing faster than India's FDI in Insurance Sector. The government of India is
planning to increase the equity limit for foreign direct investment from the
current 26 percent to 49 percent in the insurance sector. Liberalizations of the
FDI policy, including the Budget proposals for raising the sector al caps in
insurance is one of the main factors for the higher FDI inflows during the
current year. In 2003-04 the total FDI inflows in the country touched $3.4
billion. Indian insurance companies have been pushing for the FDI limit to be
raised. The current paid-up requirement of Rs1 billion for general insurance
and Rs2 billion for life insurance have become difficult targets to achieve for
the companies. The companies feel that injection of additional foreign equity
would reduce the costs. The sector was liberalized for private players towards
the end of 1999. Currently, there are 14 insurance companies, including the key
public sector company Life Insurance Corporation, in the life insurance sector
and 13 general insurance companies.

21. Changing Demographics
In1999, according to KSA-Techno park, savings and investments comprised
14 percent of an Indian consumer‟s expenditure. The other items included
grocery (44 percent), personal care items (6 percent), consumer durables (6.6
per cent), clothing and books and music (5 percent each), eating out (8 per
cent), movies (1 percent). By 2003, expenditure on savings and investments
had declined to just 4.1 percent. The other items included grocery (41percent)
, personal care items (7.6 percent), consumer durables (6.6percent), clothing
(6.9 percent), eating out (10.8 percent), movies and theatres (4.6percent),
books and music (7.6 percent), vacations (3.9 per cent). Clearly, the increased
spending on other items have had a huge impact on the amount people are
spending on savings and investment products. (Source: Business World‟s
Marketing White book 2005).

Key Players in the Indian Market
While the public sector LIC dominates the Indian life insurance market with
nearly 80 percent of the market share. It has 248 branches, 115,000 employees
and over 1 million agents. It has also been improving internal processes and
systems, upgrading skills of its agency force and managers And developing
innovative products. LIC sold 1.69 corers policies during the year compared
to 18 lakh policies sold by all the private players.
ICICI Prudential is the leader among the private players with a market share of
6.69 percent after its premium collection totaled Rs11.54 billion. Bajaj Allianz
with sales of Rs 4.9 billion had a market share of 2.86 percent. Birla Sun Life
with sales of Rs 4.8 billion had a market share of 2.81 percent and SBI Life
with premium collection of Rs 3.9 billion, a market share of 2.29 percent. With
its combination of aggressive marketing through an agency force and the use
of the banking channel, ICICI has emerged as a key player. Initially, the
company drove new business by opening branches in new locations. The focus
has now shifted to penetrating the locations for increasing market share. The
company is also trying to get higher penetration in the High Net Worth
segment. The company has seven bank assurance partners and this is the
largest contributor to non-agency business. It also has 15 key non-bank
partners and 800 financial sales consultants. As of September 2004, it had 90
branches in 60+ locations. It took the initiative in launching non- traditional
products such as life-stage products, retirement solutions and child plans. It
also focused on Unit Linked Plans (ULIPs) to target new consumer segments.
It has a presence in 15 states through partnership arrangements and as of 2003-
04, it sold64, 764 policies in rural areas.
HDFC Standard Life has established its branches in 110 locations and is
targeting non-metro towns. It is hoping to leverage its “pedigree/parentage” to
gain more customer acceptance. As a result, it is focusing on quality – not
39

23. Just volume growth. It has developed some innovative products like the Loan
Cover Term Assurance Plan which provides a lump sum in case of death of
the assured life during the term plan. Aimed at the growing segment of home
loan takers, the plan helps the family to repay the outstanding loan. Given
that HDFC has a huge database of home-loan customers; it can easily tap into
this resource to acquire new business. The company is leveraging
Its large customer database of home loan and banking clients to cross-sell
insurance products.
Birla Sun Life
Birla Sun Life was the first to offer ULIPs in the Indian insurance market.
And this has been the primary driver of its growth over the last one year. The
company has been investing in customer education and feels that as a result
customers don't view ULIPs as mutual funds but long term insurance. As of
2004, the company had 33 branches, 10,274 agents, 79 corporate
relationships and 10 bank assurance partners.
Bajaj Allianz has been focusing on second tier towns and cities which are yet
to witness the entry of other life insurance players apart from LIC. It is using
first mover advantage by opening an office in the most prominent location in
a non-metro town. It hires local people who are trained. Its mantra is to
develop only the indispensable infrastructure so that it can match the pricing
of LIC. Apart from that it claims that it is the only private player to provide
policy servicing at the branch level .Standard Chartered is currently its
biggest partner followed by Syndicate Bank and Centurion Bank. The
biggest challenge that the company faces is the weak infrastructure –
particularly transport and communications – in the smaller cities. It is also
facing a challenge in terms of banking channels, particularly for customers
who bank with cooperative banks, where delays in clearing
Cheques are in evitable. Tied agencies comprise the biggest channel (68%) of
new business acquisitions for Bajaj Allianz. Bank insurance (27%) is the
other significant channel of growth for the company.
Product Preferences among Consumers
Pension policies are becoming popular as people prefer to opt for
solutions that can offer them a regular income after retirement rather than
a lump sum on retirement. Measurable policies for a bulk sum are being
bought only for limited single use such as purchase of a house, children‟s
higher education, marriage, etc. This consumer trend is likely to help
companies that offer pension schemes. Term policies are finding favor with
40

24. Youngsters. Term insurance policies are also finding more and more takers
among the younger generation of consumers. Because the offer protection at
extremely low costs.
It is assumed that life insurance is purchased only to avail of tax-breaks. But
the fact remains that while the tax paying population in the country is just
about 20 million, there is a huge population that has not been tapped. Only
the urban salaried class who fall in the tax net has been targeted for life
insurance policies for tax-saving purposes. The other income-earning classes
such as businessmen, professionals, farmers, provide a great opportunity for
life insurance marketers. There is a need to tap these customer segments
effectively. Currently all their disposable income is going into purchase of
consumer durables such as washing machines, TV, refrigerators and mobile
phones(as is evident from the fact that spending on savings/investment
products has declined from 14 percent to 4 percent in the past decade).
Mutual Funds (MF) have benefited the most during the last two years. Take
the example of the Systematic Investment Plans (SIP) of mutual funds. In just
one quarter ICICI PRU MF sold 20,000 SIPs and it has the potential of
selling about 100,000 new SIPs in a year. There are 33 Mutual Fund
companies in the country and based on this trend one could say that the
estimated fund in flow in MFs through this route alone could touch the Rs20
billion per month. Due to the good performance of MF during the past 2
years, life insurance companies have lost out to mutual funds.
PROFILING PROSPECT
For the Providing assistance of financial management there are certain
criteria for the selection of policy holder. These criteria differ from different
insurance company. We can divide the profiling prospect of HDFCSLIC in
two ways.
Which are thus:-
1.H.N.I (HIGHLY NET WORTH INDIVIDUALS)
Highly net worth individuals are those persons who having yearly income
more than 20 lacs and they are specially treated as H.N.I clients and they have
provided relationship manager who watching and manage their funds and
provided financial advices and updating all information of policies

25. 2.LOYAL CUSTOMERS FUND VALUE AND HAVING DOWN
Every Company Want more and more business and market share and we all
know that the work in insurance sector is totally based upon the customer
base. The more you have customer the more you earn business. So
HDFCSL provide the facility to customers that they can contact
with financial assistant in the company and manage their funds
which is in loss or customer is not aware about thei r policies and
managing funds also .
TOTAL NO. OF PEOPLE
CONTACTED
During the work of financial Assistance I have contacted 100 people
including phone calling, meetings, and the other efforts. In these 100 people
I have gotten appointment of 65people. In the 65 person I have assisted 39
people. The percentage of converting the profits at 9%.
During the meeting time with the customer these questions are generally
asked by them which are thus:-
Which type of this policy in which I m getting loss!
Our premium will charge by your company or
premium is invested or not?
How your policy is working?
How can I believe on you and your company?
Mostly person have still faith in LIC so I have to convince them against the
LIC.

26. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

27. ABSTRACT OF MARKET RESEARCH
Marketing Research provides information that assists and organization to
define opportunities for product development and market strategy. It works by
assessing whether marketing strategies are accurately targeted, and by
identifying market opportunities or changes that are required by customers.
Market research tends to confirm issues that are well-known in a market
initially, but if planned well and effectively it will also identify new
opportunities, market niches, or ways by which to improve sales, marketing
and communications activities.
WHY MARKET RESEARCH STUDY
The role of market research, therefore, is to reduce uncertainty in decision
making, to monitor the effects of decisions taken, and identify the
performance of a company or a product in the market. During internship my
market survey was related with the distribution enhancement of the insurance
policies of HDFCSL. To be more specific, we can list five key uses for
market research, namely to:
a. Identify the size, shape, and nature of a market, so as to understand the
market and marketing opportunities.
b. Test out strategic and product ideas which help to define the most effective
customer-led strategies.
c. Monitor the effectiveness of strategies
d. It will define when marketing expenditure, promotions and targeting need
to be adjusted or improved.
The variety of purposes listed above makes it clear that market research is not
simply a “first check.”It is useful ahead of any action, but it also provide same
answer of checking and refining views as operations proceed. Companies,
especially those for which budget seem tight, who have selected one of these
uses for market research are always concerned to make the research a
worthwhile investment. Best results come when their marketing and sales
planning is influenced by the results of research. In other words, when
research pays for itself by providing a basis for change and improvement in
operational matters.

28. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research methodology is a way to systematically solve the research problem.
It may be understood as a science of studying now research is done
systematically. In that various steps, those are generally adopted by a
researcher in studying his problem along with the logic behind them.
It is important for research to know not only the research method but also
know
methodology. ”The procedures by which researcher go about their work of
describing, explaining and predicting phenomenon are called methodology.”
Methods comprise the procedures used for generating, collecting and
evaluating
data. All this means that it is necessary for the researcher to design his
methodology for his problem as the same may differ from problem to
problem. Data collection is important step in any project and success of any
project will be largely depend upon now much accurate you will be able to
collect and how much time, money and effort will be required to collect that
necessary data, this is also important step.
Data collection plays an important role in research work. Without proper data
available for analysis you cannot do the research work accurately.

29. OBJECTIVE OF

Instrument Used
I have collected my data form LIFE ASIA and through phone calling. Life
asia is the software which used by every insurance company and this
software help me to know the customer details and customer policy
information which help me providing best solution through discussion with
my seniors.
Types of data collection
There are two types of data collection methods available.
1. Primary data collection
2. Secondary data collection
1) Primary data
The primary data is that data which is collected fresh or first hand, and for first
time which is original in nature. Primary data can collect through personal
interview, questionnaire etc. to support the secondary data.
2) Secondary data collection method
The secondary data are those which have already collected and stored.
Secondary data easily get those secondary data from records, journals, annual
reports of the company etc. It will save the time, money and efforts to collect
the data. Secondary data also made available through trade magazines, balance
sheets, books etc. This project is based on primary data collected through
personal interview of head of account department, head of SQC department and
other concerned staff member of finance department. But primary data
collection had limitations such as matter confidential information thus project is
based on secondary information collected through five years annual report of
the company, supported by various books and internet sides. The data collection

CRM is also referred to as Customer Service Management. Generally organizations are more
focused on the path they travel through to reach the success or determined goal. The stages
they traverse includes design, development, marketing, service support, analyzing managerial
track, channeling the development phase, research and development and many more. These
stages of one‟s business life are as a whole supported with the Customer Relationship
Management features.
In the field of business development, and short term goal tracking with standard terms and
strategies, one must keep up certain flexible terms of communicational relationship and
managerial provisions among the company employees, customers, and clients and with
various departmental staff and members. This enhances a co-operative and comfortable zone
to make the right move of the company development on time.
Focusing on the marketing department, it is important to realize the important of promoting
one‟s products sales via advertisements, and efficient marketing strands with better quality.
Advertising has to be powerful means to reach the targeted customers in a short time span
with less investment for a perfect outcome of the resulting sale. Sale includes product quality,
competitiveness, advertisement, managing the service to meet the requirements of the clients
and many more.
Marketing one‟s product means to take the product to the customers who are into the track or
into the field of trade. Sales department is specific in making the product move to the clients
with respect to the deal of sale. This department is more concerned about the sales of the
product that make use of customer service and management terms to keep up good terms on
serving the customers with help-line service to solve problems related to purchase and utility
of products from the company.
Benefits of CRM techniques are more focused towards customer management and services.
Customer relationship management attracts and retains the customers winning the growing
loyalty of the customer and company relationship. CRM processes helps in guiding the way
an organization runs that are targeted generating quality leads, sales and services that are
more focused on the goals and objectives. They help in forming a tie between customer and
organizational relationship that improves the customer satisfaction with the high quality
service and makes the customers feel comfortable to take up business in futurity.
In many industries customers‟ experience with a company‟s customer service can
significantly affect their overall opinion of the product. Companies producing superior
products may negatively impact their products if they back these up with shoddy service. On

36. 36
the other hand, many companies compete not because their products are superior to their
competitors‟ but because they offer a higher level of customer service. In fact, many believe
that customer service will eventually become the most significant benefit offered by a
company because global competition (i.e., increase in similar products) makes it more
difficult for a company‟s product to offer unique advantages.
Customer service manifests itself in several ways, with the most common being a dedicated
department to handle customer issues. Whether a company establishes a separate department
or spreads the function among many departments, being responsive and offering reliable
service is critical and in the future will be demanded by customers.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
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 (2010-11) is estimated at Rs. 550 billion (US$10 billion). According to
government sources, the insurance and banking services contribution to the country's gross
domestic product (GDP) is 7% out of which the gross premium collection forms a significant
part. The funds available with the state-owned Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) for
investments are 8% of GDP. Till date, only 20% of the total insurable population of India is
covered under various life insurance schemes, the penetration rates of health and other non-
life insurances in India is also well below the international level. These facts indicate the
of immense growth potential of the insurance sector. The year 1999 saw a revolution in the
Indian insurance sector, as major structural changes took place with the ending of
government monopoly and the passage of the Insurance Regulatory and Development
Authority (IRDA) Bill, lifting all entry restrictions for private players and allowing foreign
players to enter the market with some limits on direct foreign ownership. Though, the
existing rule says that a foreign partner can hold 26% equity in an insurance company, a
proposal to increase this limit to 49% is pending with the government. Since opening up of
the insurance sector in 1999, foreign investments of Rs.8.7 billion have poured into the
Indian market and 21 private companies have been granted licenses. Innovative products,
smart marketing, and aggressive distribution have enabled fledgling private insurance
companies to sign up Indian customers faster than anyone expected. Indians, who had always
seen life insurance as a tax saving device, are now suddenly turning to the private sector and
snapping up the new innovative products on offer. 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 clocked21.87% growth in business at Rs.197.86 billion by selling 2.4
billion new policies in2004-05. 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 in2003-04 Though the total volume of LIC's business increased in the last fiscal
year (2004-2005) compared to the previous one, its market share came down from 87.04 to

39. 39
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. According to estimates, private insurance companies collectively have a 10% share
of the non-life insurance market.
INTRODUCTION
Financial management means procurement of funds at minimum costs and
effective utilization in order to maximize the wealth of shareholders.
The term of financial management refers to its relationship with the closely-
related fields of economics and accounting, its functions, scope and objectives.
Financial management, as an academic discipline, has undergone fundamental
changes in its scope and coverage. In the early years of its evolution it was treated
synonymously with the raising of funds. In the current literature
pertaining to financial management, a broader scope so as to include, in addition to
procurement of funds, efficient use of resources is universally recognized.
Financial management, as an integral part of overall management, is not a totally,
independent area. It draws heavily on related disciplines and fields of study, such as
economics, accounting, marketing, production and quantitative methods. A part from
economics and accounting, finance also draws for its key day to day decisions on
supportive disciplines such as marketing, production and quantitative methods, for
instance, financial managers should consider the impact of new product
development and promotion plans made in the marketing area since their plans will
require capital outlays and have an impact on the projected cash flows.
Finally, the tools of analysis developed in the quantitative methods area are
helpful in analyzing complex financial management problem. Organization makes

40. 40
their planning for the financial sources which are very helpful in the future course
of action.
Taking a commercial business as the most common organizational structure, the key
objectives of financial management would be to:
 Create wealth for the business
 Generate cash, and
 Provide and adequate return on investment bearing in mind the risks that the
business is taking and the resources invested.
CONCEPT OF FINACING
1. Financial Planning
Management needs to ensure that enough funding is available at the
right time to meet the needs of the business. In the short term, funding may be
needed to invest in equipment, pay employees and fund sales made on credit.
In the medium and long term, funding may be required for significant
additions to the productive capacity of the business or to make acquisitions.
2. Financial Control
Financial control is a critically important activity to help the business ensure that
the business is meeting its objectives.
3. Financial Decision-Making
A key financing decision is whether profits earned by the business should be retained

41. 41
rather than distributed to shareholders via dividends. If dividends are too high, the
business may be starved of funding to reinvest in growing revenues and profits
further.

Financial management consists of four major decisions or functions which are as
discussed as below.

decisions have a long term effect on the working of an organization.

2. Financing decision
There are various sources of capital like equity, preference shares, borrowed funds, and
retained profits. The finance manager has to select a proper mix of owned at the
minimum cost. A financing decision adds to the value to the value of shareholders.
3. Dividend decision
Profits can either be distributed or reinvested into the business. The
proportion of profits that needs to be distributed and that needs to be retained is a crucial

42. 42
decision. It is the job of finance manager to satisfy the shareholders as well as claw
back into the business. This division of profit when done in an optimum manner
maximizes shareholder value.
4. Liquidity decision
An enterprise needs finance for the day today activities for the smooth
functioning. The brand of FM that deals with investments in current assets &
liabilities, in other words investment is the net working capital comprises of the
liquidity decisions.

6.Processes
The process should be customer friendly in insurance industry. The speed and accuracy of
payment is of great importance. The processing method should be easy and convenient to the
customers. Installment schemes should be streamlined to cater to the ever growing demands
of the customers. IT & Data Warehousing will smoothen the process flow. IT will help in
servicing large no. of customers efficiently and bring down overheads. Technology can either
complement or supplement the channels of distribution cost effectively. It can also help to
improve customer service levels. The use of data warehousing management and mining will
help to find out the profitability and potential of various customers product segments.
What is Welcome Calling to the customer?
Welcome Calling is a call made to all our new customers to ensure that the policy chosen by
them is as per requirement.
What is the objective of Welcome Calling?
Welcome Calling serves mainly 2 objectives:
First, to contact the customer as per the given contact details thereby ensuring contact ability.
Second, to verify if the customer has fully understood the important features the insurance
plan chosen and whether it suits the customer's requirement, thereby avoiding mis-sale
occurrences.

68. 68
The process of customer Welcome Calling of customer
 A welcome call is made to the customer after the application for insurance policy has been
accepted by the company.
 Before disclosing any policy related information, our Customer Service Associate (CSA) will
do a mandatory verification by asking few questions.
 If the policy holder is not available, information can be shared with a third party who takes
care of the policy holder's finances, post confirmation from the third party that all the
discussed details will be shared with the Policy Holder.
 Once the verification is done, the CSA will inform the customer on all the Key features of the
insurance plan.
Once all the key features have been communicated, the CSA can also make a note of any
query, request or complaint by the customer.
 If the customer is not contactable despite multiple attempts, we will send a Welcome Calling
Letter to the communication address of the customer.
Physical Distributions
Distribution is a key determinant of success for all insurance companies. Today, the
nationalized insurers have a large reach and presence in India. Building a distribution
network is very expensive and time consuming. Technology will not replace a distribution
network though it will offer advantages like better customer service. Finance companies and
banks can emerge as an attractive distribution channel for insurance in India. In Netherlands,
financial services firms provide an entire range of products including bank accounts, motor,
home and life insurance and pensions. In France, half of the life insurance sales are made
through banks. In India also, banks hope to maximize expensive existing networks by selling
a range of products.
The physical evidences include signage, reports, punch lines, other tangibles, employee„s
dress code etc.

69. 69
A. Tangibles: banks give pens, writing pads to the internal customers. Even the
passbooks,chequebooks, etc reduce the inherent intangibility of services.
B. Punch lines: punch lines or the corporate statement depict the philosophy and attitude
ofthe bank. Banks have influential punch lines to attract the customers.

RECOMMENDATION AND SUGGSTION

74. 74
RECOMMENDATIONS
The HDFC company should now try to identify the gap between current level of customer
service and customer expectations. Some of the strategies being recommended are as
follows:
 Brand Building:
HDFC is a very huge Brand in US in Insurance but in India it is not known as a Insurance
brand. So HDFC need to focus on Brand building Activities which can be done through
Advertising, Road shows, Knops, Sponsoring Events in rural & Urban Areas.
 Educating the Consumers:
HDFC should take initiative to educate the consumers regarding all these aspects & take
competitive Advantage on this front as its Allocation charges are minimum in the whole
Indian Insurance Industry.
 Need to Increase Market Presence:
It should make more channel partners & do business tie ups with more broking houses &
should hire marketing agencies for aggressive marketing purpose. It can also increase its
Business Units.
 Concentration More On Rural Areas :
HDFC need to concentrate more towards the rural areas as 60-70% of India population is
living in rural areas and most of the people in rural areas are not insured so there is a huge
potential in the rural sector.
 Product Differentiation:
Offering a product that is distinctly different from other products available in the market by
other insurance players.
 More Guaranteed Plans to be Introduced:

75. 75
As we know today the stock market is giving very less return even in last year the return
comes Negative so the company need to introduce some more granted plans so that customer
can invest in them and have assured return on them which ultimately is an edge in
competition in insurance sector.
 Need to commence Medical claim Products and General Insurance :
There are very less which are having Medical claim products and also very less companies
providing General Insurance with Life Insurance for example ICICI , Reliance and Bajaj
Allianz so HDFC also need to come in General Insurance business so that they can compete
with these players.
 Flexibility:
The companies should make their products flexible for the convenience of their customer.
 Hassle Free Service:
All bureaucracy in customer interactions should be eliminated.
 Proper Policy Documentation:
Wrong interpretations/ non-awareness of policy document by the customer may have serious
implications in the long term and the possibility of the same should be alleviated by the
company which leads to.

76. 76
Recommendation can be use by the firm for the betterment increased of the firm
after study and analysis of project report on study and analysis of working
capital. I would like to recommend.
1. Company should raise funds through short term sources for short term
requirement of funds, which comparatively economical as compare to long term
funds.
2. Company should take control on debtor‟s collection period which is major
part of current assets.
3. Company has to take control on cash balance because cash is non earning
assets and increasing cost of funds.
4. Company should reduce the inventory holding period with use of zero
inventory concepts.
Over all company has good liquidity position and sufficient funds to repayment
of liabilities. Company has accepted conservative financial policy and thus
maintaining more current assets balance. Company is increasing sales volume
per year which supported to company for sustain 2nd position in the world and
number one position in Asia.

77. 77
SUGGESTIONS:
The company should try to increase his financial performance in the future.
The company should try to increased his product cycle.
Stable Managed fund & Secure Managed Fund provide low return. but less risk in Stable
Managed fund & Secure Managed Fund.
Most of the people are not aware about HDFC STANDARD LIFE INSURANCE CO.LTD so they have to
advertise their company and their product.
HDFC LIFE INSURANCE CO.LTD focuses on the urban area so now they have to focus on rural area
also.
HDFC LIFE INSURANCE CO.LTD should try to increase awareness of their UNIT LINK PLAN
The company should increase their distribution network.
