Press Release Body = RNCOS Research:
(http://www.marketsmonitor.com/category/FM004.html) An exponential growth of 500% is
projected in the insurance industry in India within the next four years. With rural
and semi urban consumers contributing for about $36 billion, out of which $24
billion will come through life insurance while the rest will be derived from
non-life insurance sector, the industry will observe an exceptional spurt in the
next four years. The shoot in the industry will make the insurance industry in India
a $60 billion business by the year 2010.

Indian economy, predominantly an agrarian economy, offers enormous growth
opportunities for the insurance sector. As per experts, rural sector can become a
prominent contributor in the overall growth of the insurance industry in India,
provided the needs & occupational structure of people living in villages is
understood. For instance, various crops that are comparatively expensive need to be
covered under crop insurance schemes. Also, there are various other requirements of
the farmers that need to be looked after by the insurance companies.

Although, realization of the needs of the Indian consumer will enable the insurance
companies to formulate better plans for the growth of the industry. However, foreign
investment also needs to be encouraged for the further growth of insurance industry
in India. Thus, the government has decided to increase the FDI or foreign direct
investment up to 48%. This increase will help boost up the insurance industry in
India.
