Current Indian Automobile Insurance Industry.
Auto insurance provides defence against loss due to theft or traffic accidents. In the last 4–5
years, the number of passenger cars has increased substantially. This trend is likely to
continue due to strong growth in the auto segment resulting from an increase in consumer
income levels.Auto insurance consists of two categories in India: third-party liability and auto
own damage. Auto insurance has been a loss making business because of low pricing and
very high-claim pay-outs. But recently, the prices have increased by 70–150%, which would
help to minimize losses. The auto own damage category, which accounted for 70% of the
business in FY07, has been de tariffed since January 2007.
