The Indian government plans to launch an initial public offering (IPO) for Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), the largest insurance company in India. The government aims to raise approximately Rs 90,000 crore by selling 6-10% stakes in LIC. LIC has a strong brand recognition and over 50% of the insurance market share in India. While some see privatization as a challenge, the IPO could attract more foreign investors and increase competition in the insurance sector.
