Health Insurance Industry in India The health insurance market covers very smaller part of the total population (about 10%) in India. Presently, schemes like Voluntary health insurance schemes or private-for-profit schemes; Employer-based schemes; Insurance offered by NGOs / community based health insurance, and Mandatory health insurance schemes or government run schemes (ESIS, CGHS) are found in India.
The health insurance market in India is unique and has developed a strong growth potential in the recent years with the entry of many foreign players in the market. The health insurance market in India was worth INR 5,125 crores with a compounded annual growth rate of 37 percent between 2002 and 2008. While the penetration of the health insurance market is still quite small, it is one of the fastest growing industries in India.
Aruvian's R'search analyzes this growing industry in its research report Health Insurance Industry in India. The report analyzes the whole industry in terms of growth rate, market segments, and the major players in the industry.
Published By: Aruvian's R'search Date Published: Jan 2011 * * * * * * India Insurance Market Intelligence Indian insurance industry has seen a significant growth over the past few years on account of growing national economy, increasing per capita income, growing consumer awareness about insurance products, and the entry of foreign players in the Indian market bringing in more innovative products. The Indian insurance industry operates through life and non-life segment, with life insurance, motor and health insurance being the major industry drivers. Life insurance segment, representing the largest share in the total insurance industry, is mainly perceived as a convenient method of tax-saving and hence, products like ULIPs are gaining popularity in the country.
Life insurers are now designing new products that bundle life covers with pension plans and health insurance. Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) is the largest player within the life insurance business in India. Other major private players include SBI Life, ICICI Prudential, Bajaj Allianz, Reliance Life, HDFC Standard, Birla Sunlife, Max New York and Kotak Mahindra.
During FY10, the gross premium underwritten by non-life insurance industry registered a growth of 13.4% (in local currency) over previous year. The four public-sector general insurers (New India, United India, Oriental and National, spun off from the GIC in 2000) accounted for more than 50% share of the market in FY10. The mandatory motor insurance policy and rising incident rate of road accidents has created the need to buy motor insurance, which is fuelling the growth of the motor insurance business. Indian Insurance industry being an under-penetrated market offers ample growth opportunities. Certain factors, like growing urban population and its per capita income, rising per capita disposable income, aging population, increasing healthcare expenditure and motor vehicle sales, are expected to drive the industry growth.
