Commenting on the results, Madhulika Bhaskar, General Manager, said, "After a challenging FY22, Q1FY23 saw a turnaround with the company`s results improving considerably compared to the previous quarter. The gross written premium growth at 6.5% was low as the company took several proactive steps to strengthen the pricing and weed out loss-making accounts to improve profitability. The full impact of these initiatives should be visible in the ensuing quarters. The high base effect of Q1FY22 also impacted the YoY growth numbers as the company had received some bulk government business in the same quarter last year. The incurred claim ratio decreased to 94.05% compared to 99.46% in FY22. While the impact of COVID claims has reduced, it hasn`t fully receded. The company paid COVID claims worth Rs 372 crore in QFY23. The combined ratio improved considerably to 112.99% in Q11FY23 compared to 120.66% in FY22. Foreign operations returned to profitability in the current quarter. The solvency ratio improved to 1.72x compared to 1.66x in the previous quarter. We look forward to better results going forward"
