Commenting on the results Neerja Kapur, CMD said, “Q2FY24 was one of the most challenging quarters for the company in recent times. The company suffered CAT losses on account of floods amounting to net of Rs 301 crore during the quarter. There was adverse development in the aviation portfolio of about 50 crore. The foreign operations were also under pressure as they reported losses of about 71 crore during the quarter driven by risk losses in Dubai operations and CAT losses in UK operations. While a confluence of multiple events affected the results for the quarter, Motor and Health portfolio registered growth. The profitability of these lines should improve going forward. Agency channel has also started growing at a healthy pace. The company expects to deliver improved results in the ensuing quarters.”
