EXECUTIVE SUMMEARY
In todays corporate and competitive world, I find that insurance sector has themaximum growth and potential as compared to the other sectors. Insurance has themaximum growth rate of 70-80% while as FMCG sector has maximum 12-15% ofgrowth rate. This growth potential attracts me to enter in this sector and LIFEINSURANCE CORPORATION (LIC). has given me the opportunity to work and getexperience in highly competitive and enhancing sector.
Agents are the only way for a company of Insurance sector through which policies and
benefits of the company can be explained to the customer.The life insurance industry in India grew by an impressive 47.38%, with premiumincome at Rs. 1560.41 billion during the fiscal year 2006-2007. Though the total volumeof LIC's business increased in the last fiscal year (2006-2007) compared to the previousone, its market share came down from 85.75% to 81.91%.
The 17 private insurers increased their market share from about 15% to about 19% in ayear's time. The figures for the first two months of the fiscal year 2007-08 also speak ofthe growing share of the private insurers. The share of LIC for this period has furthercome down to 75 percent, while the private players have grabbed over 24 percent.
With the opening up of the insurance industry in India many foreign players haveentered the market. The restriction on these companies is that they are not allowed tohave more than a 26% stake in a companys ownership.
Since the opening up of the insurance sector in 1999, foreign investments of Rs. 8.7billion have poured into the Indian market and 19 private life insurance companies havebeen granted licenses.
Innovative products, smart marketing, and aggressive distribution have enabledfledgling private insurance companies to sign up Indian customers faster than anyoneexpected. Indians, who had always seen life insurance as a tax saving device, are now
suddenly turning to the private sector and snapping up the new innovative products onoffer. Some of these products include investment plans with insurance and good returns(unit linked plans), multi purpose insurance plans, pension plans, child plans andmoney back plans.

INTRODUCTION OF INDUSTRY
The history of life insurance in India dates back to 1818 when it was conceived as ameans to provide for English Widows. Interestingly in those days a higher premium wascharged for Indian lives than the non - Indian lives, as Indian lives were consideredmore risky to cover. The Bombay Mutual Life Insurance Society started its business in1870. It was the first company to charge the same premium for both Indian and non-Indian lives.
The Oriental Assurance Company was established in 1880. The General insurance
business in India, on the other hand, can trace its roots to Triton Insurance CompanyLimited, the first general insurance company established in the year 1850 in Calcutta bythe British. Till the end of the nineteenth century insurance business was almost entirelyin the hands of overseas companies.
Insurance regulation formally began in India with the passing of the Life InsuranceCompanies Act of 1912 and the Provident Fund Act of 1912. Several frauds during the1920's and 1930's sullied insurance business in India. By 1938 there were 176insurance companies.
The first comprehensive legislation was introduced with the Insurance Act of 1938 that
provided strict State Control over the insurance business. The insurance business grewat a faster pace after independence. Indian companies strengthened their hold on thisbusiness but despite the growth that was witnessed, insurance remained an urbanphenomenon.
The Government of India in 1956, brought together over 240 private life insurers andprovident societies under one nationalized monopoly corporation and Life InsuranceCorporation (LIC) was born. Nationalization was justified on the grounds that it wouldcreate the much needed funds for rapid industrialization. This was in conformity with theGovernment's chosen path ofState led planning and development.
The non-life insurance business continued to thrive with the private sector till 1972.Their operations were restricted to organized trade and industry in large cities. Thegeneral insurance industry was nationalized in 1972. With this, nearly 107 insurers wereamalgamated and grouped into four companies- National Insurance Company, NewIndia Assurance Company, Oriental Insurance Company and United India InsuranceCompany.

These were subsidiaries of the General Insurance Company (GIC).
With the largest number of life insurance policies in force in the world, Insurancehappens to be a mega opportunity in India. Its a business growing at the rate of 15-20per cent annually and presently is of the order of Rs 1560.41 billion (for the financialyear 2006 2007). Together with banking services, it adds about 7% to the countrysGross Domestic Product (GDP). The gross premium collection is nearly 2% of GDP andfunds available with LIC for investments are 8% of the GDP.
Even so nearly 65% of the Indian population is without life insurance cover while healthinsurance and non-life insurance continues to be below international standards. A largepart of our population is also subject to weak social security and pension systems withhardly any old age income security.
A well-developed and evolved insurance sector is needed for economic development asit provides long term funds for infrastructure development and strengthens the risktaking ability of individuals. It is estimated that over the next ten years India wouldrequire investments of the order of one trillion US dollars.

INTRODUCTION OF ORGANIZATION
Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC)
Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) was established on 1 September 1956 tospread the message of life insurance in the country and mobilise peoples savings fornation-building activities. LIC with its central office in Mumbai and seven zonal offices atMumbai, Calcutta, Delhi, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kanpur and Bhopal, operates through100 divisional offices in important cities and 2,048 branch offices. LIC has 5.59 lakhactive agents spread over the country.
The Corporation also transacts business abroad and has offices in Fiji, Mauritius andUnited Kingdom. LIC is associated with joint ventures abroad in the field of insurance,namely, Ken-India Assurance Company Limited, Nairobi; United Oriental AssuranceCompany Limited, Kuala Lumpur; and Life Insurance Corporation (International), E.C.Bahrain. It has also entered into an agreement with the Sun Life (UK) for marketing unitlinked life insurance and pension policies in U.K.
In 1995-96, LIC had a total income from premium and investments of $ 5 Billion whileGIC recorded a net premium of $ 1.3 Billion. During the last 15 years, LIC's incomegrew at a healthy average of 10 per cent as against the industry's 6.7 per cent growth inthe rest of Asia (3.4 per cent in Europe, 1.4 per cent in the US).LIC has even provided insurance cover to five million people living below the povertyline, with 50 per cent subsidy in the premium rates. LIC's claims settlement ratio at 95per cent and GIC's at 74 per cent are higher than that of global average of 40 per cent.Compounded annual growth rate for Life insurance business has been 19.22 per centper annum
The story of insurance is probably as old as the story of mankind. The same instinct that
prompts modern businessmen today to secure themselves against loss and disasterexisted in primitive men also. They too sought to avert the evil consequences of fire andflood and loss of life and were willing to make some sort of sacrifice in order to achievesecurity. Though the concept of insurance is largely a development of the recent past,particularly after the industrial era past few centuries yet its beginnings date backalmost 6000 years.

Life Insurance in its modern form came to India from England in the year 1818. OrientalLife Insurance Company started by Europeans in Calcutta was the first life insurancecompany on Indian Soil. All the insurance companies established during that periodwere brought up with the purpose of looking after the needs of European community
and Indian natives were not being insured by these companies. However, later with theefforts of eminent people like Babu Muttylal Seal, the foreign life insurance companiesstarted insuring Indian lives. But Indian lives were being treated as sub-standard livesand heavy extra premiums were being charged on them. Bombay Mutual Life
Assurance Society heralded the birth of first Indian life insurance company in the year1870, and covered Indian lives at normal rates. Starting as Indian enterprise with highlypatriotic motives, insurance companies came into existence to carry the message ofinsurance and social security through insurance to various sectors of society. BharatInsurance Company (1896) was also one of such companies inspired by nationalism.The Swadeshi movement of 1905-1907 gave rise to more insurance companies. TheUnited India in Madras, National Indian and National Insurance in Calcutta and the Co-
operative Assurance at Lahore were established in 1906. In 1907, Hindustan Co-operative Insurance Company took its birth in one of the rooms of the Jorasanko, houseof the great poet Rabindranath Tagore, in Calcutta. The Indian Mercantile, General
Assurance and Swadeshi Life (later Bombay Life) were some of the companiesestablished during the same period. Prior to 1912 India had no legislation to regulateinsurance business. In the year 1912, the Life Insurance Companies Act, and theProvident Fund Act were passed. The Life Insurance Companies Act, 1912 made itnecessary that the premium rate tables and periodical valuations of companies shouldbe certified by an actuary. But the Act discriminated between foreign and Indiancompanies on many accounts, putting the Indian companies at a disadvantage.
The first two decades of the twentieth century saw lot of growth in insurance business.From 44 companies with total business-in-force as Rs.22.44 crore, it rose to 176companies with total business-in-force as Rs.298 crore in 1938. During themushrooming of insurance companies many financially unsound concerns were alsofloated which failed miserably. The Insurance Act 1938 was the first legislationgoverning not only life insurance but also non-life insurance to provide strict statecontrol over insurance business. The demand for nationalization of life insuranceindustry was made repeatedly in the past but it gathered momentum in 1944 when a billto amend the Life Insurance Act 1938 was introduced in the Legislative Assembly.However, it was much later on the 19th of January, 1956, that life insurance in India wasnationalized. About 154 Indian insurance companies, 16 non-Indian companies and 75
provident were operating in India at the time of nationalization. Nationalization wasaccomplished in two stages; initially the management of the companies was taken overby means of an Ordinance, and later, the ownership too by means of a comprehensivebill. The Parliament of India passed the Life Insurance Corporation Act on the 19th ofJune 1956, and the Life Insurance Corporation of India was created on 1st September,1956, with the objective of spreading life insurance much more widely and in particularto the rural areas with a view to reach all insurable persons in the country, providingthem adequate financial cover at a reasonable cost.

LIC had 5 zonal offices, 33 divisional offices and 212 branch offices, apart from itscorporate office in the year 1956. Since life insurance contracts are long term contractsand during the currency of the policy it requires a variety of services need was felt in the
later years to expand the operations and place a branch office at each districtheadquarter. Re-organization of LIC took place and large numbers of new branchoffices were opened. As a result of re-organisation servicing functions were transferredto the branches, and branches were made accounting units. It worked wonders with theperformance of the corporation. It may be seen that from about 200.00 crores of NewBusiness in 1957 the corporation crossed 1000.00 crores only in the year 1969-70, andit took another 10 years for LIC to cross 2000.00 crore mark of new business. But withre-organisation happening in the early eighties, by 1985-86 LIC had already crossed7000.00 crore Sum Assured on new policies.Today LIC functions with 2048 fully computerized branch offices, 109 divisional offices,8 zonal offices, 992 satallite offices and the Corporate office. LICs Wide Area Network
covers 109 divisional offices and connects all the branches through a Metro AreaNetwork. LIC has tied up with some Banks and Service providers to offer on-linepremium collection facility in selected cities. LICs ECS and ATM premium paymentfacility is an addition to customer convenience. Apart from on-line Kiosks and IVRS, InfoCentres have been commissioned at Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Chennai,Hyderabad, Kolkata, New Delhi, Pune and many other cities. With a vision of providingeasy access to its policyholders, LIC has launched its SATELLITE SAMPARK offices.The satellite offices are smaller, leaner and closer to the customer. The digitalizedrecords of the satellite offices will facilitate anywhere servicing and many otherconveniences in the future.LIC continues to be the dominant life insurer even in the liberalized scenario of Indian
insurance and is moving fast on a new growth trajectory surpassing its own pastrecords. LIC has issued over one crore policies during the current year. It has crossedthe milestone of issuing 1,01,32,955 new policies by 15th Oct, 2005, posting a healthygrowth rate of 16.67% over the corresponding period of the previous year.From then to now, LIC has crossed many milestones and has set unprecedentedperformance records in various aspects of life insurance business. The same motiveswhich inspired our forefathers to bring insurance into existence in this country inspire usat LIC to take this message of protection to light the lamps of security in as many homesas possible and to help the people in providing security to their families.

KNOW ABOUT OUR LIFE INSURANCE
Life insurance in India made its debut well over 100 years ago.
In our country, which is one of the most populated in the world, the prominence ofinsurance is not as widely understood, as it ought to be. What follows is an attempt toacquaint readers with some of the concepts of life insurance, with special reference toLIC.
It should, however, be clearly understood that the following content is by no means an
exhaustive description of the terms and conditions of an LIC policy or its benefits orprivileges.
For more details, please contact our branch or divisional office. Any LIC Agent will beglad to help you choose the life insurance plan to meet your needs and render policyservicing.
What Is Life Insurance?
Life insurance is a contract that pledges payment of an amount to the person assured(or his nominee) on the happening of the event insured against.
The contract is valid for payment of the insured amount during:The date of maturity, orSpecified dates at periodic intervals, orUnfortunate death, if it occurs earlier.
Among other things, the contract also provides for the payment of premiumperiodically to the Corporation by the policyholder. Life insurance is universallyacknowledged to be an institution, which eliminates 'risk', substituting certainty foruncertainty and comes to the timely aid of the family in the unfortunate event of deathof the breadwinner.By and large, life insurance is civilisation's partial solution to the problems caused by
death. Life insurance, in short, is concerned with two hazards that stand across thelife-path of every person:That of dying prematurely leaving a dependent family to fend for itself.That of living till old age without visible means of support.

Life Insurance Vs. Other Savings
Contrace Of Insurance: A contract of insurance is a contract of utmost good faith technically known asuberrima fides. The doctrine of disclosing all material facts is embodied in thisimportant principle, which applies to all forms of insurance.
At the time of taking a policy, policyholder should ensure that all questions in theproposal form are correctly answered. Any misrepresentation, non-disclosure or fraudin any document leading to the acceptance of the risk would render the insurancecontract null and void.
Protection:
Savings through life insurance guarantee full protection against risk of death of thesaver. Also, in case of demise, life insurance assures payment of the entire amountassured (with bonuses wherever applicable) whereas in other savings schemes, onlythe amount saved (with interest) is payable.
Aid To Thrift:
Life insurance encourages 'thrift'. It allows long-term savings since payments can bemade effortlessly because of the 'easy instalment' facility built into the scheme.(Premium payment for insurance is either monthly, quarterly, half yearly or yearly).For example: The Salary Saving Scheme popularly known as SSS, provides a
convenient method of paying premium each month by deduction from one's salary.In this case the employer directly pays the deducted premium to LIC. The SalarySaving Scheme is ideal for any institution or establishment subject to specified termsand conditions.
Liquidity:In case of insurance, it is easy to acquire loans on the sole security of any policy
that has acquired loan value. Besides, a life insurance policy is also generally
accepted as security, even for a commercial loan.
Tax Relief:Life Insurance is the best way to enjoy tax deductions on income tax and wealth tax.This is available for amounts paid by way of premium for life insurance subject toincome tax rates in force.
Assesses can also avail of provisions in the law for tax relief. In such cases theassured in effect pays a lower premium for insurance than otherwise.

Money When You Need It:A policy that has a suitable insurance plan or a combination of different plans can beeffectively used to meet certain monetary needs that may arise from time-to-time.Children's education, start-in-life or marriage provision or even periodical needs forcash over a stretch of time can be less stressful with the help of these policies.
Alternatively, policy money can be made available at the time of one's retirement fromservice and used for any specific purpose, such as, purchase of a house or for otherinvestments. Also, loans are granted to policyholders for house building or forpurchase of flats (subject to certain conditions).
Any person who has attained majority and is eligible to enter into a valid contract caninsure himself/herself and those in whom he/she has insurable interest.Policies can also be taken, subject to certain conditions, on the life of one's spouse orchildren. While underwriting proposals, certain factors such as the policyholders stateof health, the proponent's income and other relevant factors are considered by theCorporation.
Insurance For WomenPrior to nationalisation (1956), many private insurance companies would offerinsurance to female lives with some extra premium or on restrictive conditions.However, after nationalisation of life insurance, the terms under which life insurance isgranted to female lives have been reviewed from time-to-time.
At present, women who work and earn an income are treated at par with men. In othercases, a restrictive clause is imposed, only if the age of the female is up to 30 yearsand if she does not have an income attracting Income Tax.
Medical And Non-Medical Schemes:Life insurance is normally offered after a medical examination of the life to be assured.However, to facilitate greater spread of insurance and also to avoid inconvenience,LIC has been extending insurance cover without any medical examination, subject tocertain conditions.
With Profit And Without Profit Plans:An insurance policy can be 'with' or 'without' profit. In the former, bonuses disclosed, ifany, after periodical valuations are allotted to the policy and are payable along with thecontracted amount.In 'without' profit plan the contracted amount is paid without any addition. The premium
rate charged for a 'with' profit policy is therefore higher than for a 'without' profit policy.
Keyman InsuranceKeyman insurance is taken by a business firm on the life of key employee(s) to protectthe firm against financial losses, which may occur due to the premature demise of theKeyman.

Revival Of Lapsed Policy:If the policy has lapsed, it can be revived during the life time of the life assured, within aperiod of five years from the date of the first unpaid premium but before the date ofmaturity subject to certain conditions.
The Corporation offers three convenient schemes of revival viz., Ordinary Revival,Special Revival and Installment Revival. Policies can also be revived under Loan-cum-Revival and SB-cum-Revival schemes.Request for revival may be made to the Branch Office servicing the policy.
Change Of Address And Transfer Of Policy Records:The policyholder should immediately intimate the change of his/her address to theBranch Office servicing the policy. The correct address facilitates better service andquicker settlement of claims. Policy records can also be transferred from one BranchOffice to another for servicing, as requested by the policyholder.

Meaning of saving scheme:saving schemes are a kind of mutual funds like diversified equity funds with Taxbenefits. It is just like other tax saving instruments like National Savings Certificate andPublic Provident Fund. Main advantage with ELSS is lock-in period is only 3 years whilefor NSC it is 6 years and for PPF it is 15 years. At the same time risk factor is high inELSS.
As per Income Tax act 80c investment up to Rs 1,00,000 are eligible for deduction fromthe gross total income hence reducing the total taxable income. For example if yourtotal annual income is Rs 3,00,000 and you invest Rs 1,00,000 in ELSS then yourtaxable income will become Rs 2,00,000.Previously there was an upper limit for investing in tax saving instruments like ELSS of5,00,000. Only individuals with less than 5,00,000 annual income are allowed to investin tax saving instruments. But last year financial budget removed this restriction andnow any individual can invest in ELSS irrespective of their income level.
Advantages of ELSS over NSC and PPF
1. Main advantage of ELSS is its short lock-in period. Maturity period of NSC is 6 yearsand PPF is 15 years.2. Since it is an equity linked scheme earning potential is very high.3. Investor can opt for dividend option and get some gains during the lock-in period4. Investor can opt forSystematic Investment Plan5. Some ELSS schemes also offer personal accident death cover insurance6. Provides 30 to 40% returns compared to 8% in NSC and PPF
Disadvantages of ELSS
1. Risk factor is high compared to NSC and PPF2. Premature withdrawal is not allowed but it is allowed in other instruments in somespecific conditions.

Diversified Equity Schemes and ELSSBoth Equity linked saving scheme and diversified equity scheme operates in same way.
Both are high return and high risk schemes. But there is a 3 year lock in period of ELSSand it provides tax benefits too.
Systematic Investment PlanBest way to invest in ELSS is through Systematic Investment Plan(SIP). With SIP youcan invest a small amount every month for a specific time period. With SIP investor cantake advantage of fluctuations in the stock market. So investor will get more units whenthe market is down and get less units when the market is up. For eg if you are investingRs 1000 every month and you will get 100 units for when Net Asset Value (NAV) is 10and will get 50 units when NAV is 20. So investing a fixed sum regularly helps to coverthe market fluctuations by rupee costs averaging. Also most of the Asset ManagementCompanies (AMC) charges less entry load forSIP compared to normal purchase.

Conclusion
After Findings we can see about LIC features and his The tendency to takethe expedient approach and focus on the far right of the LIC spectrum,Peacetime Contingency Operations and conduct training as usual, while briefing that the LIC block has been checked, will lead us to a possibly fatal
false sense of security.Instinctive behavior and ingrained training must be adjusted to fit new circumstances. STXs must be developed locally or borrowed from unitswhohave already been through the training.The probability of becoming involved in a LIC operation is high. Thepotential to attract international attention, even with limited forces, is alsogreat. Units have demonstrated that with a balanced training focus andproperpreparation, many pitfalls outlined above can be avoided.LIC is not conventional warfare. This is critical for the counterinsurgent tounderstand. The insurgents violent and coercive strategy is applied so as
to achieve political, civil, military and psychological results. Hence, thecounterinsurgent must counter all of these strategic elements individually.In addition, the target of the insurgents violence and coercion is the population. This isbecause the population is the centre of gravity in LIC. Therefore the counterinsurgentmust also focus on the population to be successful. In terms of military principles incounterinsurgency, doctrinal precision, professionalism, independence, initiative, forceprecision, restraint, combined arms, precision engagement, joint force, effectivepopulation based intelligence, integrated communications, a civil affairs approach andhigh levels of training are critical.So we can say that so many merits and Demerits in life insurance Corporation of India.
