 HISTORY OF INSURANCE
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
disaster existed in primitive men also. They too sought to
avert the evil consequences of fire and flood and loss of life
and were willing to make some sort of sacrifice in order to
achieve security. 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
back almost 6000 years. Life Insurance in its modern form
came to India from England in the year 1818. Oriental Life
Insurance Company started by Europeans in Calcutta was
the first life insurance company on Indian Soil. All the
insurance companies established during that period were
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 the efforts
of eminent people like Babu Muttylal Seal, the foreign life
insurance companies started insuring Indian lives
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, or

• Specified dates at periodic intervals, or
• Unfortunate death, if it occurs earlier.

Among other things, the contract also provides for the

payment of premium periodically to the Corporation by
the policyholder. Life insurance is universally
acknowledged to be an institution, which eliminates 'risk',
substituting certainty for uncertainty and comes to the
timely aid of the family in the unfortunate event of
death of 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 the life-path of every person:

1. That of dying prematurely leaving a dependent

family to fend for itself.
2. That of living till old age without visible means of
support.
 OBJECTIVES

• Spread Life Insurance widely and in particular to the

rural areas and to the socially and economically
backward classes with a view to reaching all insurable
persons in the country and providing them adequate
financial cover against death at a reasonable cost.
• Maximize mobilization of people's savings by making
insurance-linked savings adequately attractive.
• Conduct business with utmost economy and with the
full realization that the moneys belong to the
policyholders.
• Act as trustees of the insured public in their individual
and collective capacities.
• Meet the various life insurance needs of the
community that would arise in the changing social and
economic environment.
• Involve all people working in the Corporation to the
best of their capability in furthering the interests of the
insured public by providing efficient service with
courtesy.
Promote amongst all agents and employees of the
Corporation a sense of participation, pride and job
satisfaction through discharge of their duties with
dedication towards achievement of Corporate Objective

weaker sections of the society and provide life insurance to
them.For three consecutive years in 2003 2004 and 2005,

 The Life Insurance Corporation of
India
The Life Insurance Corporation of India was created on 1st
September, 1956, with the objective of spreading life
insurance much more widely and in particular to the rural
areas with a view to reach all insurable persons in the
country, providing them adequate financial cover at a
reasonable cost.
LIC had 5 zonal offices, 33 divisional offices and 212
branch offices, apart from its corporate office in the year
1956. Since life insurance contracts are long term contracts
and 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 district
headquarter. re-organization of LIC took place and large
numbers of new branch offices were opened. As a result of
re-organisation servicing functions were transferred to the
branches, and branches were made accounting units. It
worked wonders with the performance of the corporation. It
may be seen that from about 200.00 crores of New
Business in 1957 the corporation crossed 1000.00 crores
only in the year 1969-70, and it took another 10 years for
LIC to cross 2000.00 crore mark of new business. But with
re-organisation happening in the early eighties, by 1985-86
LIC had already crossed 7000.00 crore Sum Assured on
new policies.
Today LIC functions with 2048 fully computerized branch
offices, 100 divisional offices, 7 zonal offices and the
Corporate office. LIC’s Wide Area Network covers 100
divisional offices and connects all the branches through a
Metro Area Network. LIC has tied up with some Banks and
Service providers to offer on-line premium collection
facility in selected cities. LIC’s ECS and ATM premium
payment facility is an addition to customer convenience.
Apart from on-line Kiosks and IVRS, Info Centres have
been commissioned at Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Bangalore,
Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, New Delhi, Pune and many
other cities. With a vision of providing easy access to its
policyholders, LIC has launched its SATELLITE
SAMPARK offices. The satellite offices are smaller, leaner
and closer to the customer. The digitalized records of the
satellite offices will facilitate anywhere servicing and many
other conveniences 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 past records.
LIC has issued over one crore policies during the current
year. It has crossed the milestone of issuing 1,01,32,955
new policies by 15th Oct, 2005, posting a healthy growth
rate of 16.67% over the corresponding period of the
previous year.
From then to now, LIC has crossed many milestones and
has set unprecedented performance records in various
aspects of life insurance business. The same motives which
inspired our forefathers to bring insurance into existence in
this country inspire us at LIC to take this message of
protection to light the lamps of security in as many homes
as possible and to help the people in providing security to
their families.
