Commenting on the results,
CMD Girija Subramanian said, "While the premium growth in the first half
has been muted, it was a conscious decision to focus on lines with better
profitability which led to the company letting go of a few large renewals where
premiums were inadequate. It gives me immense satisfacti7 that the operating
metrics have improved, with loss ratio as well as combined ratio being lower than
the same period last year with profit after tax showing a 5x increase. The loss
ratio of Health line of business has witnessed some improvement but the loss ratio
in Motor line of business increased due to lack of price increase in the Motor
Third Party line of business. Net catastrophic losses in H1FY25 was Rs 248 crore.
Solvency ratio at 1.81 times remains comfortably above the IRDAI mandated
control level solvency margin. The competitive intensity in traditional lines
remain high and the company will focus on other segments and channels to drive
growth. The company expects t1-1 profitability trend to improve in the coming
quarters."
