CHAPTER 1.

INDUSTRY PROFILE

With the largest number of life insurance policies in force in the world, Insurance

happens to be a mega opportunity in India. It’s a business growing at the rate of 15-20

per cent annually and presently is of the order of Rs 1560.41 billion (for the financial

year 2006 – 2007). Together with banking services, it adds about 7% to the country’s

Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The gross premium collection is nearly 2% of GDP

and funds available with LIC for investments are 8% of the GDP.

Even so nearly 65% of the Indian population is without life insurance cover while

health insurance and non-life insurance continues to be below international standards.

A large part of our population is also subject to weak social security and pension

systems with hardly any old age income security.

A well-developed and evolved insurance sector is needed for economic development

as it provides long term funds for infrastructure development and strengthens the risk

taking ability of individuals. It is estimated that over the next ten years India would

require investments of the order of one trillion US dollars.

I observe that now day’s 98% people have insurance policy.Most of the people

an insurance policy. Their perception of Insurance being a tax saving.

4.3 SUGGESTION

 To increase insurance awareness and knowledge among people.

 To satisfy the needs of more demanding customers.

To improve cost efficiency in insurance distribution.

 They have to work on advertisement .Lack of advertisement most of the

customers are not aware of the Reliance Life Insurance.

 They have to work on rural areas.

Investor Behavior Toward Reliance life Insurance (Child Plan) Page 36


4.4 CONCLUSION

Our exhaustive research in the field of Life Insurance threw up some interesting

trends which can be seen in the above analysis. A general impression that we gathered

during Data collection was the immense awareness and knowledge among people

about various companies and their insurance products. People are beginning to look

beyond LIC for their insurance needs and are willing to trust private players with their

hard earned money. People in general have been impression by the marketing and

advertising campaigns of insurance companies. A high penetration of print, radio and

Television ad campaigns over the years is beginning to have it’s impact now.

The general satisfaction levels among public with regards to policy and agents still

requires improvement. But therein lays the opportunity for a relative new comer like

ING. LIC has never been known for prompt service or customer oriented methods and

Reliance can build on these factors.
