INTRODUCTION
Definition of Insurance
Insurance may be described as a social device to reduce or eliminate risk of
life and property. Under the plan of insurance, a large number of people
associate themselves by sharing risk, attached to individual.
The risk, which can be insured against include fire, the peril of sea, death,
incident, & burglary. Any risk contingent upon these may be insured against
at a premium commensurate with the risk involved.
Insurance is actually a contract between 2 parties whereby one party called
insurer undertakes in exchange for a fixed sum called premium to pay the
other party happening of a certain event.
“Insurance is a contract whereby, in return for the payment of premium by
the insured, the insurers pay the financial losses suffered by the insured as a
result of the occurrence of unforeseen events”.
With the help of Insurance, large number of people exposed to a similar risk
makes contributions to a common fund out of which the losses suffered by
the unfortunate few, due to accidental events, are made good.

Classification of Insurance
LIFE INSURANCE
India Life Insurance sector came into existence with the nationalization of
Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) in 1956. At that time, all private companies
were taken over by LIC. Henceforth, the private insurance companies
remained subdued under the towering leadership of LIC until year 2000
when the Insurance Act of 1938 was amended to the Insurance Regulatory
and Development Authority Act (IRDA) of 2000. From this time onwards, the
IRDA started issuing licenses to private life insurers.
While LIC is the is the sole operator in the public sector, the following is the
list of private companies in the Life Insurance Sector in India as on
September,2006:
• ICICI Prudential Life Insurance
• HDFC Standard Life
• SBI Life Insurance
• Birla Sun life
• Bajaj Allianz Life
• Kotak Mahindra Life Insurance
• Tata AIG Life
• ING Vyasya Life Insurance
• Max New York Life Insurance
GENERAL INSURANCE
India General Insurance covers almost everything related to property,
vehicle, cash, household goods, health and also one's liability towards
others. The basic difference of general insurance with the life insurance
policy is that it offers protection against contingencies.
Nearly 100 general insurance companies have been nationalized under the
General Insurance Business (Nationalization) Act, 1972, and merged into

Benefits of insurance
Insurance benefits encompass the facilities associated with buying of
insurances. Insurance is mainly a instrument used by consumers for hedging
the future contingent risks related with life, health and non-life general
issues. Insurance benefits help the policy holder or beneficiary in combating
with the losses or hazards associated with him/her.
The policy holder buys the insurance to hedge against the future perceived
losses by paying a regular amount to he insurance company known as the
Premium. Insurance companies ensure financial reimbursement of the
insured losses to the policy holders or his/her beneficiary. This is the most
coveted Insurance Benefits.
But with time, more and more insurance companies have cropped up and
consequently the competition among them has increased. Every company is
trying to woo all the customers into its fold and in a way offering more and
more innovative Insurance Benefits to the consumers.
Affordability of Insurance
The foremost insurance benefit in today’s world is the low insurance rate and
premium one has to pay. While choosing an insurance policy, every
customer looks at this rate first and then to the other associated benefits.
The lesser the insurance rate, the more affordable the insurance becomes.
Thus, among all the insurance benefits, low insurance rate and premium is
the most coveted one.
Accessibility Of Insurance
The easy accessibility of insurance is the next most coveted Insurance
Benefits that the customers look for. The online access to insurance
companies and their policies has made them more lucrative to the
customers. Now-a-days, customers can search, compare and select their
insurance coverage through the click of a mouse from their own residence.

Principles of insurance
Main principles of insurance:
• Utmost good faith
• Indemnity
• Subrogation
• Contribution
• Insurable Interest
•
Proximate Cause
UTMOST GOOD FAITH
As a client it is your duty to disclose all material facts to the risk being
covered. A material fact is a fact which would influence the mind of a
prudent underwriter in deciding whether to accept a risk for insurance and on
what terms. The duty to disclose operates at the time of inception, at renewal
and at any point mid term.
INDEMNITY
On the happening of an event insured against, the Insured will be
placed in the same monetary position that he/she occupied immediately
before the event taking place. In the event of a claim the insured must:
• Prove that the event occurred
• Prove that a monetary loss has occurred
• Transfer any rights which he/she may have for recovery from another
source to the Insurer, if he/she has been fully indemnified.
7
8/8/2019 Remaining Project

UNITED INDIA INSURANCE COMPANY LTD.
SUBROGATION
The right of an insurer which has paid a claim under a policy to step
into the shoes of the insured so as to exercise in his name all rights he might
have with regard to the recovery of the loss which was the subject of the
relevant claim paid under the policy up to the amount of that paid claim. The
insurer’s subrogation rights may be qualified in the policy.
CONTRIBUTION
The right of an insurer to call on other insurers similarly, but not
necessarily equally, liable to the same insured to share the loss of an
indemnity payment i.e. a travel policy may have overlapping cover with the
contents section of a household policy. The principle of contribution allows
the insured to make a claim against one insurer who then has the right to call
on any other insurers liable for the loss to share the claim payment.
INSURABLE INTEREST
If an insured wishes to enforce a contract of insurance before the
Courts he must have an insurable interest in the subject matter of theinsurance, which is to say that he stands to benefit from its preservation and
will suffer from its loss.
In non-marine insurances, the insured must have insurable interest when the
policy is taken out and also at the date of loss giving rise to a claim under the
policy.
PROXIMATE CAUSE
An insurer will only be liable to pay a claim under an insurance
contract if the loss that gives rise to the claim was proximately caused by an
insured peril. This means that the loss must be directly attributed to an
insured peril without any break in the chain of causation.

BRIEF HISTORY OF INSURANCE SECTOR
The insurance sector in India has completed all the facets of competition –
from being an open competitive market to being nationalized and then
getting back to the form of a liberalized market once again. The history of the
insurance sector in India reveals that it has witnessed complete dynamism
for the past two centuries approximately.
With the establishment of the Oriental Life Insurance Company in Kolkata,
the business of Indian life insurance started in the year 1818.

regulating the life insurance business.

government to collect statistical information on both life and non-life
insurance businesses.
•1938: The earlier legislation consolidated the Insurance Act with the aim of
safeguarding the interests of the insuring public.
•1956: 245 Indian and foreign insurers and provident societies were taken
over by the central government and they got nationalized. LIC was formed
by an Act of Parliament, viz. LIC Act, 1956. It started off with a capital of Rs.
5 crore and that too from the Government of India.
The history of general insurance business in India can be traced back to
Triton Insurance Company Ltd. (the first general insurance company) which
was formed in the year 1850 in Kolkata by the British.

The competition is fierce today, and no one wants to loose a customer to the
next guy or service to come along. Clients that have had no contact for a
period of time loose loyalty. Keep birthday and anniversary postcards going
into the home on a regular basis. Keeping a name before a consumer will
keep a name in their conscience. A small gift or token of appreciation is also
a means for keeping customers loyal. Christmas goody packages or dinner
out certificates will leave lasting impressions on consistent customers.
Community marketing is another great way to get advertising and name

the local Chamber of Commerce, and sign up to help in activities. This is a
great way to get name and photographs listed in newspaper articles and
other media avenues.

volunteers, who could be potential clients. People enjoy using services
extended by like-minded providers. Creating a sense of community is
extremely important to insurance marketing strategies.

clear about how He feels when there is misconduct in business transactions.
