CHAPTER – 1

ORGANIZATIONAL
PROFILE
 7

1.1 Organizational Profile

1.1.1 Brief History of Insurance
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 BabuMuttylal
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
 8

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.
1.1.2 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 nationalised. LIC formed by an Act of Parliament, viz. LIC Act, 1956, with a
capital contribution of Rs. 5 crore from the Government of India.
1.1.3 Current Scenario of Insurance Sector in India
The insurance industry of India consists of 57 insurance companies of which 24 are in life
insurance business and 33 are non-life insurers. Among the life insurers, Life Insurance
Corporation (LIC) is the sole public sector company. Apart from that, among the non-life
insurers there are six public sector insurers. In addition to these, there is sole national re-insurer,
namely, General Insurance Corporation of India (GIC Re). Other stakeholders in Indian
Insurance market include agents (individual and corporate), brokers, surveyors and third party
administrators servicing health insurance claims.
1.1.4 Market Size
Government's policy of insuring the uninsured has gradually pushed insurance penetration in the
country and proliferation of insurance schemes.
Gross premiums written in India reached Rs 5.53 trillion (US$ 94.48 billion) in FY18, with Rs
4.58 trillion (US$ 71.1 billion) from life insurance and Rs 1.51 trillion (US$ 23.38 billion) from
non-life insurance. Overall insurance penetration (premiums as % of GDP) in India reached 3.69
per cent in 2017 from 2.71 per cent in 2001.
 9

In FY19 (up to October 2018), premium from new life insurance business increased 3.66 per
cent year-on-year to Rs 1.09 trillion (US$ 15.46 billion).   In FY19 (up to October 2018), gross
direct premiums of non-life insurers reached Rs 962.05 billion (US$ 13.71 billion), showing a
year-on-year growth rate of 12.40 per cent.
1.1.5 Investments and Recent Developments
The following are some of the major investments and developments in the Indian insurance
sector.

US$ 903 million.
 India's leading bourse Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) will set up a joint venture with
EbixInc to build a robust insurance distribution network in the country through a new
distribution exchange platform.
1.1.6 Government Initiatives
The Government of India has taken a number of initiatives to boost the insurance industry. Some
of them are as follows:
 In September 2018, National Health Protection Scheme was launched under Ayushman
Bharat to provide coverage of up to Rs 500,000 (US$ 7,723) to more than 100 million
vulnerable families. The scheme is expected to increase penetration of health insurance in
India from 34 per cent to 50 per cent.
 Over 47.9 million famers were benefitted under PradhanMantriFasalBimaYojana
(PMFBY) in 2017-18.
 The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) plans to issue
redesigned initial public offering (IPO) guidelines for insurance companies in India,
which are to looking to divest equity through the IPO route.
 10

 IRDAI has allowed insurers to invest up to 10 per cent in additional tier 1 (AT1) bonds
that are issued by banks to augment their tier 1 capital, in order to expand the pool of
eligible investors for the banks.
1.1.7 Road Ahead
The future looks promising for the life insurance industry with several changes in regulatory
framework which will lead to further change in the way the industry conducts its business and
engages with its customers.
The overall insurance industry is expected to reach US$ 280 billion by 2020. Life insurance
industry in the country is expected grow by 12-15 per cent annually for the next three to five
years.
Demographic factors such as growing middle class, young insurable population and growing
awareness of the need for protection and retirement planning will support the growth of Indian
life insurance.

The project is a systematic presentation consisting of the collected facts of data, analysed facts
and proposed conclusions in form of recommendations.
3.3 Type of Research:
Descriptive Research a research design is the specifications of methods and procedures for
acquiring the information needed to structure or solve the problem. It is the overall operational
pattern or framework of the project that stimulates what information is to be collected from
which source and by what procedure. On the basis of major purpose for my investigation, the
DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH was found to be most suitable as the data is collected from the
wide range of prospects that are located in different locations of the city. This type of research
has the primary objective to describe a situation, subject and behavior.
3.4 Data Collection:
Primary Data: Primary data was collected through meeting random people in the field.

Findings
 36

5.1FINDINGS
I have collected the data of 600 prospects for Insurance Manager Job profile from Internet and by direct
interaction, out of which 250 people would prefer to listen about business opportunity provided by our
organization. Out of these 250, only 50 give time for meeting and from that 50 meetings only 10 people
meet our manager. From them only one agreed to join our organization as insurance manager

5.1.1 My findings during my two months’ internship period are:

1) Lack of awareness among the people regarding insurance sector.
2) People make perception in their mind that the insurance manager or insurance advisor is the low-level
job profile due to some company.

3) Only few People shows there interest in life Insurance

4) Most of the people said that they were ready to join but under General Insurance
5)People think it is difficult to sell life insurance
6) They also think that selling general insurance is much easier than selling life insurance
 37

Chapter-6

Limitations
 38

Limitations
The main limitations were as follows:
1) People don’t listen to us
2) The behaviour of the respondents is unpredictable
4)Due to shortage of time, the sample size is limited
5) People in India have negative opinion about life insurance
 39

Chapter-7

Conclusion
 40

Conclusion
From the project we can conclude that most of the people were interested in a part time business
opportunity but they did not wanted that opportunity in Insurance sector. Even some of the
people were interested in insurance but they were not interested in life insurance. There is a
negative image of life insurance because of lack of knowledge and awareness among people.
They feel that selling life insurance is difficult as compared to general insurance.
Whenever we used to call people regarding the business opportunity they felt that we are going
to sell them any insurance policy due to which most of the people don’t even listen to what we
are saying.
Even some factors like: - age, gender, and education, annual income impact the hiring. As we
call many retired person the response I got from them is “ We are 60 or 65 we have done our
jobs now we have to rest “ so they were not interested in IM profile
 41

Recommendation
 42

Recommendation

1) Our organisation should expand their distribution network rural market

2) We can also conduct seminars in offices collages to attract a large no of people at the same
time
