Nirmal Bang Report
Life insurers continue to see strong growth (25.7% YoY growth July'24 year-to-date); we expect the momentum to continue in H1 FY25, led by a strong pipeline of products and continued traction across segments.
We expect value of new business margins to be under pressure as the new surrender value guidelines become effective from Oct-24. While life insurers continue to engage with distributors, we expect an impact of 100-200 bps on margins across covered companies.
In our view, ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company Ltd. is better-positioned versus peers as it has already launched two products to navigate the new guidelines. We reiterate Buy on ICICI Life with a target price of Rs 850 (2.2 times FY26E price/embedded value versus Rs 750 at two times earlier).
