Life Insurers' business growth muted in February

While the overall retail APE for the industry rose 10.5% on a year-on-year basis, helped by private players expanding at 18%, LIC's retail APE declined by 3% over the same period. The low growth resulted from a likely pre-booking of high-ticket non-ULIP policies in February and March 2023 to avoid the impact of taxation change proposed in the FY24 union budget, according to an Emkay report.
