Year 2024 Economic resilience, industry reforms keep insurance sector buoyant: Sumit Rai, MD and CEO of Edelweiss Tokio Life Insurance

Telugu super news,December 21st,2023:Indian economy continued to show remarkable strength this year amid an evident global slowdown. This strength was largely driven by robust consumption, strong investment activity, and a burgeoning, aspirational consumer class. The country’s focus in recent years on bringing progressive policy reforms, and digital transformation has also supported this growth trajectory, enabling India to outperform its peers globally, particularly those in the Asian Pacific region.

Driven by this broader economic resilience, the insurance industry also stayed the course on growth. The year 2023 saw some market-moving developments for the industry including the government’s decision to levy tax on income arising from insurance policies with an aggregated premium worth Rs. 5 Lakhs every year, starting April 2023.

There was a sustained emphasis on digitalization to reimagine customer and distributor management processes. The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) brought multiple reforms, focussing on 3 prominent themes – strengthening the ecosystem, improving accessibility & reach, and safeguarding policyholders’ interest.

As we now look forward to 2024, I expect regulatory reforms to continue to steer the industry. There are 3 key trends likely to unfold in the new year:

a.       Bima Trinity:

IRDAI has unveiled Bima Trinity initiative as a part of its vision of Insurance For All by 2047. The primary objective of this initiative is building affordability and accessibility of insurance. This project, which includes Bima Sugam, Bima Vistaar and Bima Vaahak, is expected to take off next year at different intervals.

Bima Sugam, which is an online marketplace encompassing the entire customer journey from buying to servicing, is expected to make accessibility of insurance much easier. Bima Vistaar promises to be a revolutionary insurance product which seeks to offer affordable protection to the masses. It is expected to be launched by January 2024. Bima Vaahak is a women-centric distribution channel at the Gram Sabha level that aims to empower women by educating them about the benefits of comprehensive insurance thus enabling their financial security.

Together, Bima Trinity will promote financial inclusivity, leverage digital to create an unmatched convenience, accessibility and simplification, affordable coverage, and foster higher participation of women in the insurance industry.

b.      Product Innovation:

The regulator has been placing a higher emphasis on the need for simplified, personalized products, aligned with the expectations of today’s customer expects. It also introduced the Use & File norms to achieve this goal and has been expanding the scope of these guidelines this year. We expect the regulator to proactively push the industry to leverage technology including new-age solutions like AI, and ML to create better and simplified solutions. We will see more niche products coming into the market in the medium-term as the overall efforts of the regulator through initiatives like state-level insurance project provide higher clarity of nuanced needs of the customers across geographies.  

c.       New players will get licensed:

While the regulator has already licensed 3 new players this year, it is expected to allow entry of more companies going forward. IRDAI has said that it is looking to issue licenses to 20 new insurers in the immediate future. Additionally, the regulator is also likely to relook the capital requirements, making it entry of new players easy. With an increased competitiveness in the market, the sector will see more innovation, improved distribution models, automation and more.

One of the awaited developments of 2024 is that the government will table the Insurance Laws (Amendment) Bill 2022 as it has the potential to bring another round of positive reforms and bolster growth prospects of the industry.

The FTCCI delegation also invited the Honorable Consul General to visit the FTCCI office.

The new UAE consulate became operational this year. It is the second such office in southern India. It is a well-known fact that there is a huge demand for visas from well-known South India to travel to the UAE. Many people from Telangana travel to the UAE for work. So also many UAE citizens travel to Hyderabad for medical and educational reasons. Hence, we need to have more stronger ties, added Mr. Meela Jayadev.

The Relations between both nations received a major boost because of the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement.

OMI Foundation launches an all-accessible, EV-Ready India dashboard, estimates 1.6 crore annual sales by 2030 in India

Telugu super news,India, october 16th, 2023: OMI Foundation, along with Shri R.K. Singh, Hon’ble Union Minister of Power, New and Renewable Energy, Government of India launched brand-new EV-Ready India Dashboard (evreadyindia.org) – an industry growth focused digital platform to address the need for macroeconomic data and analysis on India’s massively growing electric mobility segment. The Dashboard launch was attended by representatives across union and state governments of India, Niti Aayog, World Bank, and more. 

The all in one, near real time free EV-Ready India dashboard harnesses the power of data and AI and serves as a platform for industry inclusion and collaboration. It is the only dashboard in India that compiles sales data across all Vahan states and Telangana, along with a direct view into the state of charging infrastructure, demand trends and TCO comparisons – making it useful for the EV buyers as well. Additionally, it tracks the current investment climate for EVs, and forecasts on market growth and EV hotspots for the country. It further measures emissions avoided, aiming to accelerate India’s journey to net zero.

To begin with, the dashboard estimates over 1.6 crore annual EV deployments in India by 2030.

For Telangana, it estimates over 48.65% Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) growth between calendar year (CY) 2022 and CY 2030 to reach 16.45 lakh EV sales. Telangana is emerging as manufacturing hub for high-speed electric 3-Ws. The annual battery demand in the state is expected to reach 6.4 GWh (giga-watthour), while the number of public charging stations in the state are 362. Charging density in the state is 272 i.e 1 public charger caters to 272 EVs. This situation clearly calls for an enhancement and expansion of charging infrastructure.

Shri R.K. Singh, Hon’ble Union Minister of Power, New and Renewable Energy, Government of India said while launching the EV-Ready India Dashboard, “India’s leadership in electric vehicles is of critical importance. Our economy needs to be energy independent of fossil fuels. India is already on the path to being EV Ready and leading the conversation on climate action for the transport sector. We have taken active steps to reduce emissions, having already cut emission intensity by 33% in 2019 since 2005, and the capacity for generating renewable energy has multiplied by almost 7X in the last few years, standing at 185K mega-watt today. We are confident that India will surpass its target of 50% energy production from non-fossil fuels by 2030. EVs are critical for this journey both from an energy dependence and environment standpoint, and as number of EVs grow on the roads, we will see India emerging as a leader in climate change. Another important step towards making EVs mainstream is expanding the charging stations, which already is at 10,000 currently. The EV-Ready India Dashboard is a fantastic initiative to update us on the progress of EV deployments, and other electric mobility trends and I congratulate the OMI Foundation team for this feat.”

Shri Amitabh Kant, G20 Sherpa, Government of India during the launch remarked, “OMI Foundation’s EV-Ready India Dashboard is a transformative platform that consolidates vital insights on electric mobility. It goes beyond data presentation, sparking healthy competition and collaboration among stakeholders. Recognising that the real action in electric mobility occurs at the state level, the dashboard offers comprehensive, state-specific insights. This empowers policymakers to make informed decisions, fostering India’s journey into a global EV leader. The dashboard also underscores the urgent need to expand charging infrastructure to meet rising demand, a critical aspect of the EV transition. I urge all state and district authorities to leverage this dashboard as they compete to lead India’s EV revolution. It’s a tool that not only offers a competitive edge but also promotes collaboration, driving India toward a sustainable electric future.”

Aishwarya Raman, Executive Director of the OMI Foundation added, “EV-Ready India is a dashboard that is all in one and free for all. It is for all those who want to be a part of India’s EV journey. This is a milestone development for OMI Foundation, as it culminates extensive research, statistical analysis, and relentless dedication of our inhouse experts.  The platform is meant to enhance knowledge, foster ecosystem-wide collaboration and underpin effective policy making – as we continue to make this dashboard more comprehensive, and insightful. It is our contribution towards positioning India as a leader in sustainable mobility.”

Key Features of the EV-Ready India Dashboard:

  1. For the policymakers and industry, the dashboard presents consolidated sales data for all 34 Vahan states and Union Territories, and the additional Telangana. The data is visualised for easy understanding of adoption rates and trends presented by time period, form factors, states, and more.
  2. The dashboard shows forecasts on EV adoption, and associated battery demand till 2030, allowing both policymakers and industry alike to strategize and execute their clean mobility goals. In addition to pan-India projections, the dashboard presents state-wise projections, in a first-of-its-kind approach.
  3. For the end user, i.e. the (potential) buyer of EVs, the dashboard shows financial benefits of EV ownership, including potential savings on upfront costs, operating and maintenance costs, etc. On the click of a button, the user can also review the list of EV models that are eligible for subsidies and the quantum of such subsidy.
  4. It also includes a comprehensive repository of all policies and regulations covering all value chains of the EV ecosystem. The policy module helps states compare their policies, update them based on their competitive advantages,
  5. For users, industry, and policymakers alike, the dashboard presents a comprehensive overview of charging infrastructure covering both charging stations and points across the country. Additionally, the dashboard shows the density of charging points with respect to EVs on the road. This module also shows charging tariffs allowing states to improve their rates vis-a-vis others,
  6. By tracking and benchmarking investments across EV value chains such as vehicle manufacturing, battery technology, battery recycling or urban mining, etc., and research and development, the dashboard maps the contributions to India’s economic growth and job creation. 
  7. The dashboard, further, measures India’s journey towards net zero by tracking emissions avoided due to accelerated EV adoption across the length and breadth of the country.
  8. Lastly, the dashboard presents news and blogs on EV adoption and data-driven decision-making pertaining to all value chains of the EV ecosystem in a single place.

The launch event also featured a panel discussion around “Data-Driven Decision Making in the EV Sector” involving:

  1. Shri K. R. Jyothilal, IAS, Additional Chief Secretary, General Administration Department and Power Department, Government of Kerala.
  2. Shri Ashish Kundra, IAS, Principal Secretary and Commissioner, Transport, Government of NCT of Delhi

Talking about the campaign and her personal journey battling against mental health issues, Cause Ambassador Shaheen Bhatt, said, “I’m honoured to be a part of ‘MTV Question Marks’, a critical changemaker for the youth of today.

Let’s create a world where our children thrive not only academically but also emotionally and mentally.”

Aanchal Narang, Founder of Another Light Counselling, Psychologist said, “Exams are often equated with a child’s capability to succeed, which is unfair threshold. With this campaign, we hope to create a space where parents can learn and understand their children in a way most have not before. We aim to help parents navigate through their children’s academic life while being empathetic and compassionate.”

“We champion celebrating efforts, debunking the misconception that top academic performance defines worth. Our campaign emphasizes nurturing environments, acceptance, and mental health support, bridging the gap with Trijog.” Added, Arushi Sethi Shah, CEO, Co-Founder, Trijog – Know Your Mind

Anureet Sethi, Co-founder, Chairperson, Trijog – Know Your Mind, General Manager (IEC) Podar Education Network mentioned, “We challenge the belief that academic success guarantees happiness. By prioritizing emotional resilience, empathy, and compassion, we pave the way for societal stability. Join our campaign to shift focus from IQ to EQ, creating a stronger, empathetic society.”

Dr. Ravinder Singal, (ADGP) Additional Director General of Police of Maharashtra Highway Traffic Police shed light on the importance of youth mental health in the context of academic stress. At the workshop, he shared his thoughts, saying, “It is very important to talk about students’ mental health; it is relevant, and we must address it. If we don’t, I think it would be an injustice, even as a parent. We only run after marks; we only tell our children that they should secure these many marks. I myself don’t remember my 10th class marks, but I passed my IPS exam, and I became a police officer.”

MTV’s comprehensive youth study showed that while the majority of the youth are closer to their parents than their friends, they still avoid debating them, assuming they would not see their point of view. MTV Question Marks aims to open a sustainable dialogue between youth and their parents and to reinvent the idea of success anchored in marks. Ensuring the campaign’s messaging ‘Marks Hai Benchmark Nahi’ is rooted in expert insights and research, MTV collaborated with highly qualified and experienced experts, further creating resources on their dedicated campaign microsite www.mtvquestionmarks.com. MTV also unveiled an impactful and novel brand film that elevates the core message of the campaign.

To expand the campaign’s reach, MTV has forged strategic partnerships. Snack Partner Epigamia, through its co-branded, limited edition yogurt edition with the tagline ‘Naye Zamane ka Dahi Shakkar’ packaging will add a creative dimension, enhancing the campaign’s visibility and appeal to a wider audience.  Wellness Partner Trijog, an expert in mental health support, will provide about 100 free counselling sessions to the campaign participants and a handbook with critical information on dealing with exam stress, ensuring the campaign’s impact extends beyond its initial duration. 

Youth Mental Health Partner Another Light Counselling has been an integral collaborator in giving life to the parent-focused workshop, providing resources for mental health management and driving a meaningful conversation through it. The campaign will also promote Government of India’s Department of Public Health and Welfare’s initiative, National Tele Mental Health Programme of India – Tele MANAS, a comprehensive mental health care toll-free helpline number that makes mental health services accessible and free to every individual. The campaign is also strongly supported by Awareness Partner, not-for-profit organization Yashlok Foundation.
