July 2020 was an exceptional month for insurers. Let’s find out how

Life Insurance

The insurance industry picked up speed after initial hiccups due to the Coronavirus pandemic. July 2020 proved to be a good month for both life and general insurance companies as they experienced good premium collection numbers. The growth in premium collection in July 2020 was positive compared to July 2019 and some insurance companies even increased their premiums three times. This is good news for the industry, especially after the pandemic struck and impacted the insurance business. Let’s have a look at what the numbers have to say about the insurance industry’s growth story –

Following IndiaFirsh is Star Union Dai-ichi which also doubled its premium collection figures and posted a growth in triple digits. Bajaj Allianz, Aviva and SBI Life Insurance Companies follow next taking up the top five ranks.

General insurance companies 

Even general insurance companies performed very well. The increased requirement of a health insurance plan after the COVID pandemic might have contributed to the growth story of general insurance companies. Edelweiss Tokio was the leader in the general insurance business which posted more than 200% growth followed by Aditya Birla and SBI General in the second and third places. Even the four public sector general insurance companies posted a positive premium collection rate in July 2020 but did not feature in the top 5 spot.
