The profit before tax increased by 33% from 818 crore in 9MFY22 to 1086 crore in 9MFY23. For the third quarter, the PBT increased by 56% from 587 crore to 914 crore. The gross written premium rose at moderate pace of 1.9% in 9MFY2023 due to the same period previous year recording significant revenues from the crop line of business and some Government business, which were not there this year as well as shedding certain loss making business. The company made a provision of about Rs 3100 crore pertaining to additional liabilities on account of wage arrears and related AS 15 liabilities during the period. Additional capital gains realized in favorable market conditions partially cushioned this adverse impact.

The ICR for the period improved to 94.70% from 99.48%. Property line of business performed well, and the health line of business showed improved results during the period. Adverse development of claims in crop line of business and severe competition in Motor line of business adversely impacted the results during the period. However, the overall combined ratio improved from 120.01% to 116.37% during the period. Operating expenses have gone up during the quarter due to the impact of revised wages. The solvency ratio has improved to 1 .91x from 1.66x in March 2022. The net worth remains healthy at around 39000 crore and the company continues to be the market leader in India in non-life insurance. Going forward, the company will continue to target profitable growth and looks forward to further improving its operating performance."
