India Non-Life Insurance Market Growth

Dubai (25%), Maldives (24%), Singapore (21%), Switzerland (18%), and Bali (15%) have emerged as the most popular overseas destination for Indian travellers, who are willing to spend up to INR 6 lakhs on their foreign vacations. In the coming years, 48% of Indian travellers are expected to increase their budgetary allocation for overseas travel, and 37% of them are expected to increase the duration of international trips. This is expected to favourably shape the India non-life insurance market dynamics.

Around 62% of Indian travellers consider travel insurance a mandatory part of trip planning, and 45% of them use online portals to research the best policy for themselves. Cleanliness, comfort, and convenience have emerged as the topmost priorities of travellers while undertaking domestic/foreign trips, and the medical and accidental expenditure coverage provided by insurance plans plays a key role in influencing their final purchasing decision. Around 39% of Indian travellers prefer a customisable and flexible travel insurance plan, which is increasing the India non-life insurance market revenue. Over the forecast period, the growth of online travel insurance platforms is expected to significantly increase the growth rate of the market in India.

Key Trends and Developments

Reducing premiums for home insurance; increasing demand for health and motor insurance; rising adoption of crop insurance plans; and increasing threat of data breaches are the major factors favouring the India non-life insurance market growth.

January 2025

HDFC Ergo General Insurance launched a relatively more affordable version of its Optima Health Insurance policy to cater to the unique financial needs of different Indian consumers. The new policy provides a cover of INR 5 lakh and INR 7.5 lakh respectively and provides benefits for emergency ambulance services and health checkups.

December 2024

Bajaj Allianz General Insurance, a leading Indian general insurance company, launched two new innovative motor insurance add-on covers: Named Driver Cover and Eco Assure - Repair Protection. These offerings are designed to improve customer convenience, enhance sustainability, and offer comprehensive and personalised insurance coverage. This is creating a favourable India non-life insurance market outlook.

May 2024

MIC Global, a leading full-stack embedded micro insurance company, partnered with The New India Insurance Co. Ltd. to introduce India’s first ever all-in-one digital identity monitoring, restoration, and insurance platform, MiIdentity. Mildentity is an online portal that notifies consumers whenever their registered information is located on the Dark Web and helps them receive inconvenience payments for any financial losses from their insurance providers.

May 2023

SBI General Insurance introduced a new insurance product- “General Surety Bond Bima”, which acts as a security arrangement between the contract awarding authority and contractor for infrastructure projects. It can potentially strengthen contractors’ credibility and encourage smooth project execution by providing secure financial support for large-scale infrastructure development projects.

Reducing premiums for home insurance

The average reconstruction cost of a basic facility is around INR 1,200-1,500 per square foot. Rising incidences of natural disasters are expected to prompt more consumers to purchase low-cost home insurance plans in the coming years, due to the growth of disposable income levels and growth of financial awareness.

Increasing demand for health and motor insurance

In 2022, the premiums for motor and health insurance plans increased by 26.2%, which was almost double from 2021 (12.2%). Together, they accounted for 66% of gross direct premiums for insurance companies in 2022. Hence, the sustained growth in healthcare costs and rising vehicle ownership rates among individuals are fuelling the India non-life insurance market revenue.

Rising adoption of crop insurance plans

As weather patterns are becoming increasingly unpredictable, farmers are recognising the importance of crop insurance products for mitigating risks. Government subsidies and initiatives have enhanced policy accessibility for farmers, which is driving their adoption. The growing awareness of crop insurance products is leading to the non-life insurance market growth in India.

Increasing threat of data breaches

The rising threats of data breaches are driving the demand for cyber insurance solutions. Corporate organisations are increasingly turning to customised cyber insurance solutions for mitigating financial losses from online risks. With rapid digitalisation of business operations, IT companies are seeking policy coverage for reputation damage, legal liabilities, and data loss, which is favourably impacting the market dynamics.

India Non-Life Insurance Market Trends

Only 1 in 20 households in India purchase a home insurance. Every time there is a natural calamity, the sale of house insurance products begins to rise. For instance, after 2018 Kerala Floods, home insurance policies for covering fire protection surged by 34%. Similarly, post the occurrence of cyclone Amphan in West Bengal in 2020, premium incomes increased to 27% y-o-y. However, due to increasing consumer awareness regarding the harmful effects of climate change and the risks of fire hazards, the India non-life insurance market value is expected to increase steadily. Annually, over 5,000 cases of fire hazards are reported in Mumbai, with cities like Bengaluru and Delhi reporting 2,500 cases annually. This is expected to favourably shape the market dynamics in the coming years.
