--HDFC Life mgmt: Expect growth to pick up in Oct-Mar
MUMBAI – HDFC Life Insurance Co. Ltd. expects growth to pick up in Oct-Mar and to continue to outperform the industry, its senior management said in the post-earnings analyst concall Tuesday. "We believe Oct-Mar should be better than Apr-Sept and...we do expect margins to be range bound this year...especially given that growth at an overall level is likely to be slower than last year," senior management of the insurance company said.
While the company expects margins to be steady for the current financial year, it sees them expanding over the next three years. The insurer reported a 14.4% on-year growth in net profit to INR 5.46 billion.
"While the external environment remains dynamic, our fundamentals have held strong, anchored in a balanced product mix, a diversified distribution footprint," HDFC Life Insurance's Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Vibha Padalkar said in the post-earnings analyst concall. "Our aspiration is to continue to outpace industry growth while sustaining our position amongst the top three in India."
She also said that the MSCI has upgraded HDFC Life's environment, social, and governance rating to 'AA' from 'A', "placing us amongst the highest-rated insurers in India and the region". In terms of the product mix, the insurance company expects the year to see a "gradual shift, rather than a sharp swing" towards traditional products. Currently, the company has over 70 products, including individual and group products. End
