What the Numbers Show

Life Insurance Corporation of India delivered a robust start to FY27, with Net Value of New Business (VoNB) surging 61.32% year-on-year to ₹3,136 crore in Q1FY27. This sharp acceleration was underpinned by a 7.5 percentage point absolute expansion in the Net VoNB margin, which climbed to 22.9% from 15.4% in Q1FY26. The performance signals improved profitability on new business, driven largely by growth in the Individual Non-Participating segment, which grew 14.24% YoY in Annualized Premium Equivalent (APE).

The filing, disclosed under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, accompanies an investor presentation scheduled for August 13, 2026. The data reflects standalone figures unless otherwise specified and highlights the insurer’s scale as India’s largest life insurer by new business premium and assets under management.

Financial Performance and Embedded Value

For the full fiscal year FY26, Life Insurance Corporation of India reported an Indian Embedded Value (IEV) of ₹7,89,185 crore, an increase from ₹7,76,876 crore in FY25. The movement was primarily driven by Operating Earnings (EVOP) of ₹92,639 crore, which included expected returns on existing business of ₹74,748 crore and VoNB added during the period of ₹14,179 crore.

However, these operational gains were partially offset by negative economic assumption changes and variances amounting to ₹72,740 crore. Adjusted Net Worth (ANW) expanded significantly to ₹1,69,605 crore in FY26 from ₹1,20,258 crore in FY25. Conversely, the Value of In-Force (VIF) Business declined to ₹6,19,580 crore from ₹6,56,617 crore.

Business Mix and Channel Growth

The growth in new business was broad-based across segments but particularly strong in savings products. Individual Saving APE grew 48.41% YoY in FY26 to ₹7,112 crore, while Unit Linked Insurance Plans (ULIPs) surged 63.48% to ₹6,150 crore. Protection business also saw healthy growth of 33.77% to ₹309 crore. However, Annuity APE contracted 8.57% to ₹1,643 crore.

In Q1FY27, Total Individual APE rose 6.67% YoY to ₹7,532 crore, while Group APE increased 10.20% to ₹6,160 crore. This resulted in a total APE of ₹13,692 crore, up 8.22% from ₹12,652 crore in Q1FY26.

Distribution channels continued to evolve, with Bancassurance remaining the largest contributor. In Q1FY27, Banks accounted for 6.92% of new business, followed by Alternates at 3.38% and Digital Marketing at 0.59%. The share of rural business has consistently risen, reaching 53.26% in Q1FY27 compared to 48.22% in FY23, indicating deeper penetration in semi-urban and rural markets.

Agent Force and Bima Sakhi Yojana

Life Insurance Corporation of India strengthened its direct sales force through training and empowerment initiatives. As of March 31, 2026, 4,667 agents fulfilled the Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) criteria. Furthermore, 76.53% of agents recruited were within the 18-40 years age group, reflecting a rejuvenating workforce. The insurer imparted training to 1,99,472 newly recruited agents in FY26 across its 716 training infrastructure centers.

The Bima Sakhi Yojana, launched in December 2024, gained significant traction. By March 31, 2026, the scheme had appointed 3.45 lakh Mahila Career Agents (MCAs), who sold 21.94 lakh policies and procured ₹2,848.36 crore in New Business Premium (NBP). This initiative underscores the company’s focus on women empowerment and inclusive distribution.

What the Numbers Show

The divergence between the decline in Value of In-Force (VIF) and the rise in Adjusted Net Worth (ANW) suggests that recent capital contributions and retained earnings are outpacing the present value of future profits from existing blocks. While VIF dropped by approximately ₹37,000 crore, ANW grew by nearly ₹50,000 crore. This shift indicates that the insurer’s value creation is increasingly driven by current financial strength and new business margins rather than the legacy book value, which may be sensitive to interest rate assumptions reflected in the negative economic variance of ₹72,740 crore.
