HDFC Standard Life insurance is the oldest life insurance company in the world.
It is the largest insurer in the UK and is the 28th largest company in the world.
In India, the company is marketing life insurance products and unit linked
investment plans. From my research at HDFC SLIC, I found that the company
has a lot of competition from other private insurers like ICICI, Aviva, Birla Sun
Life and Tata AIG. It also faces competition from LIC. To compete effectively
HDFC SLIC could launch cheaper and more reasonable products with small
premiums and short policy terms (the number of years premium is to be paid).
The ideal premium would be between Rs. 5000 Rs. 25000 and an ideal policy
term would be 10 20 years.
HDFC must advertise regularly and create brand value for its products and
services. Most of its competitors like Aviva, ICICI, Max, Reliance and LIC use
television advertisements to promote their products. The Indian consumer has a
false perception about insurance they feel that it would not benefit them if
they do not live through the policy term. Nowadays however, most policies are
unit linked plans where a customer is benefited even if their death does not
occur during the policy term. This message should be conveyed to potential
customers so that they readily invest in insurance.
Family responsibilities and high returns are the two main reasons people invest
in insurance. Optimum returns of 16 20 % must be provided to consumers to
keep them interested in purchasing insurance.
On the whole HDFC standard life insurance is a good place to work at. Every new
recruit is provided with extensive training on unit linked funds, financial
instruments and the products of HDFC. This training enables an advisor/sales
manager to market the policies better. HDFC was ranked 13 in the Best Places to
Work survey. The company should try to create awareness about itself in India.
In the global market it is already very popular. With an improvement in the sales
techniques used, a fair bit of advertising and modifications to the existing
product portfolio, HDFC would be all set to capture the insurance market in India
as it has around the globe.

Even though the first legislation was enacted in 1938, it was only in 19
January 1956, that life insurance in India was completely nationalized,
through a Government ordinance; the Life Insurance Corporation Act, 1956
effective from 1.9.1956 was enacted in the same year to, inter-alias, form
LIFE INSURANCE CORPORATION after nationalization of the 245 companies
into one entity. There were 245 insurance companies of both Indian and
foreign origin in 1956. Nationalization was accomplished by the govt.
acquisition of the management of the companies. The Life Insurance
Corporation of India was created on 1st September, 1956, as a result and
has grown to be the largest insurance company in India as of 2006.
Till 1999, there were not any private insurance companies in Indian
insurance sector. The Govt. of India then introduced the Insurance
Regulatory and Development Authority Act in 1999, thereby de-regulating
the insurance sector and allowing private companies into the insurance.
Further, foreign investment was also allowed and capped at 26% holding in
the Indian insurance companies. In recent years many private players
entered in the Insurance sector of India. Companies with equal strength
competing in the Indian insurance market. Currently, in India only 2 million

Indians, who have always seen life insurance as a tax saving device, are now
suddenly turning to the private sector and snapping up the new innovative
products on offer.
The growing popularity of the private insurers shows in
other ways. They are coining money in new niches that they have introduced.
The state owned companies still dominate segments like endowments and
money back policies. But in the annuity or pension products business, the
private insurers have already wrested over 33 percent of the market. And in the
popular unit-linked insurance schemes they have a virtual monopoly, with over
90 percent of the customers.
With an annual growth rate of 15-20% and the largest
number of life insurance policies in force, the potential of the Indian insurance
industry is huge. According to government sources, the insurance and banking
services' contribution to the country's gross domestic product (GDP) is approx
7% out of which the gross premium collection forms a significant part. The funds
available with the state-owned Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) for investments
are 8% of GDP.
The year 1999 saw a revolution in the Indian insurance
sector, as major structural changes took place with the ending of government
monopoly and the passage of the Insurance Regulatory and Development
Authority (IRDA) Bill, lifting all entry restrictions for private players and allowing
foreign players to enter the market with some limits on direct foreign ownership.
The private insurers also seem to be scoring big in other
ways- they are persuading people to take out bigger policies. For instance, the
average size of a life insurance policy before privatization was around Rs 50,000.
That has risen to about Rs 80,000. But the private insurers are ahead in this
game and the average size of their policies is around Rs 1.1 lakh to Rs 1.2 lakhway bigger than the industry average.

Endowment policies cover the risk for a specified period at the end of
which the sum assured is paid back to the policyholder along with all the
bonus accumulated during the term of the policy.
The focus then shifts to managing a smaller family - perhaps only oneself
and ones spouse - after retirement.
This is where the endowment - the original sum assured and the
accumulated bonus - received back come handy.
You can either use the endowment amount for buying an annuity policy to
generate a monthly pension for the whole life,
It can also be put it in any other suitable investment of your choice. This
is the major benefit of an endowment policy over a whole life one.
In other words, the risk is covered for the entire life of the policyholder,
which is why they are know as whole life policies.
The policy money and the bonus are payable only to the nominee of the
beneficiary upon the death of the policyholder.
The policyholder is not entitled to any money during his or her own
lifetime, i.e. there is no survival benefit. In this sense whole life policies
are fairly rigid and inflexible and are suitable only in a few, very specific
cases.
On the whole, whole life policies may be best considered after the age of
45 either for the purpose of leaving behind an estate for ones heirs or for
10 | P a g e
Term life insurance policy covers risk only during the selected term period.
If the policyholder survives the term, the risk cover comes to an end.
Term life policies are primarily designed to meet the needs of those
people who are initially unable to pay the larger premium required for a
whole life or an endowment assurance policy.
No surrender, loan or paid-up values are granted under term life policies
because reserves are not accumulated.
If the premium is not paid within the grace period, the policy lapses
without acquiring any paid-up value. A lapsed policy can be revived during
the
lifetime of the life assured but before the expiry of the period of two years
from the due date of the first unpaid premium on the usual terms.
Accident and / or Disability benefits are not granted on policies under the
Term plan.
D. MONEY-BACK POLICY :

But these are categorized separately as these cover two lives together
thus offering a unique advantage in some cases; notable, for a married
couple or for partners in a business firm.
Annuities differ from all the other forms of life insurance in that an annuity
does not provide any life insurance cover but, instead, offers a guaranteed
income either for life or a certain period.
Typically annuities are bought to generate income during one's retired life,
which is why they are also called pension plans. By buying an annuity or a
pension plan the annuitant receives guaranteed income throughout his
life.
12 | P a g e
A person also receives lump sum benefits for the annuitant's estate in
addition to the payments during the annuitant's lifetime.
Pension plans are perfect investment instrument for a person who after
retiring from service has received a large sum as superannuation benefit.
One can pay for a pension plan either through an annuity or through
installments that are annual in most cases.
Unit linked plans are based on the component of the premium or the
contribution of the customer towards the plan.
Unit linked plans have multiple benefits like life protection, rider
protection, savings, transparency, investment choices, liquidity and
planning for taxes. These plans work like mutual funds.
The Net Asset Value is the value of each unit of the fund.

COMPANY PROFILE
HDFC STANDARD LIFE INSURANCE
INTRODUCTION
HDFC Standard Life first came together for a possible joint venture, to
enter the Life Insurance market, in January 1995
The next three years were filled with uncertainty, due to changes in
government and ongoing delays in getting the IRDA (Insurance
Regulatory and Development authority) Act passed in parliament. Despite
this both companies remained firmly committed to the venture
Towards the end of 1999, the opening of the market looked very
promising and both companies agreed the time was right to move the
operation to the next level. Therefore, in January 2000 an expert team
from the UK joined a hand picked team from HDFC to form the core
project team, based in Mumbai.
The company was then incorporated on 14th August 2000 under the name
of HDFC Standard Life Insurance Company Limited.

The financial year 2009-10 was a defining year with the
unfolding of several unexpected events - sharp correction in financial markets
and a spread of recessionary trends. These events also had an impact on the
Indian life insurance industry. HDFCs new policies issued grew by 26% over the
last year. However, given the uncertainty in the overall scenario, customers
have reduced their annual premium commitment on new policies. At the same
time, existing policies continued to be in force reflected in our renewal premium,
which posted a healthy growth of 34%

PRODUCT PORTFOLIO
PROTECTION PLAN
Protection Plans help you shield your family from
uncertainties in life due to financial losses in terms of loss of income that may
dawn upon them incase of your untimely demise or critical illness. Securing the
future of ones family is one of the most important goals of life. Protection Plans
go a long way in ensuring your familys financial independence in the event of
your unfortunate demise or critical illness. They are all the more important if you
are the chief wage earner in your family.
For instance, consider the example of Amit who is a healthy
25 year old guy with a income of Rs. 1,00,000/- per annum. Let's assume his
income increases at a rate of 10% per annum, while the inflation rate is around
4%; this is how his income chart will look like, until he retires at the age of 60
years. At 50 years of age, Amits real income would have been around Rs.
10,00,000/- per annum. However, in case of Amits unfortunate demise at an
early age of 42 years, the loss of income to his family would be nearly Rs.
5,00,000/- per annum.
Features of protection plan
30 | P a g e
However, with a Protection Plan, a mere sum of Rs. 2,280/- annually (exclusive
of service tax & educational cess) can help Amit provide a financial cushion of up
to Rs. 10, 00,000/- for his family over a period of 25 years.
CHILDRENS PLANS:
Childrens Plans helps you save so that you can fulfill your
childs dreams and aspirations. These plans go a long way in securing your
childs future by financing the key milestones in their lives even if you are no
longer around to oversee them. As a parent, you wish to provide your child with
the very best that life offers, the best possible education, marriage and life style.
Most of these goals have a price tag attached and unless you
plan your finances carefully, you may not be able to provide the required
economic support to your child when you need it the most.
For example, with the high and rising costs of education, if you are not
financially prepared, your child may miss an opportunity of a lifetime.
Today, a 2-year MBA course at a premiere management institute would cost you
nearly Rs. 3,00,000/- At a assumed 6% rate of inflation per annum, 20 years
later, you would need almost Rs. 9,07,680/- to finance your child's MBA degree.
An illustration of how education expenses could rise with passing time due to
inflation:
31 | P a g e
Childrens Plans help you save steadily over the long term
so that you can secure your childs future needs, be it higher education,
marriage or anything else. A small sum invested by you regularly can help you
build a decent corpus over a period of time and go a long way in providing your
child a secured financial future along with
32 | P a g e
RETIREMENT PLANS:
Retirement Plans provide you with financial security so that
when your professional income starts to ebb, you can still live with pride without
compromising on your living standards. By providing you a tool to accumulate
and invest your savings, these plans give you a lump sum on retirement, which
is then used to get regular income through an annuity plan. Given the high cost
of living and rising inflation, employer pensions alone are not sufficient. Pension
planning has therefore become critical today.
Indias average life expectancy is slated to increase to over
75years by 2050 from the present level of close to 65 years. Life spans have
been increasing due to better health and sanitation conditions in the country.
However, the average number of years of employment has not been rising
commensurately. The result is an increase in the number of post-retirement
years. Accordingly, it has become necessary to ensure regular income for life
after retirement, so that you can live with pride and enjoy your twilight years.
However, skyrocketing costs can throw even a well-laid plan off balance.
With costs rising every day, you can just imagine how high they will be
when you are ready to hang up your boots. So, what should you do to
counter this? Its time to plan your retirement and that too sooner than
later.
33 | P a g e
The above illustration shows how with each passing year your annual savings
requirement would increase. For instance, if you are 30 years old and plan to
retire at 60, then, with a current annual expenditure of Rs. 3,00,000/- , you
would need a corpus in excess of Rs. 2,00,00,000/- to maintain your living
standards, assuming you live till 85 years and the inflation rate is 4%. To build
this retirement corpus, you need to invest Rs 3,60,000/- per annum in a
retirement plan that offers 8% returns per annum. In case you delay planning
your retirement by 5 years then the investment amount would increase to Rs
6,90,000/- per annum.
34 | P a g e
However, Rs. 10, 00,000/- after 15 years would be worth roughly around half of
what it is today once adjusted for inflation at the rate of 4%. Therefore, an
individual will need to save nearer to Rs 50,000/- annually to reach your
targeted savings at the age of 50 Years, if you consider inflation.

therefore ensure that your family always remains financially independent, even if
you are not around.
HEALTH PLANS:
Health plans give you the financial security to meet health
related contingencies. Due to changing lifestyles, health issues have acquired
completely new dimension overtime, becoming more complex in nature. It
becomes imperative then to have a health plan in place, which will ensure that
no matter how critical your illness is, it does not impact your financial
independence.
In the race to excel in our professional lives and provide the
best for our loved ones, we sometimes neglect the most important asset that we

and a deteriorating environment due to rapid urbanization, our vulnerability to
diseases has increased at an alarming rate.
cases, people need to borrow money or sell assets to cover their medical
expenses. All it takes is a suitable plan to help you overcome the financial woes
related to your health by paying marginal amounts as premiums. For example, if
you are 30 years old, then a mere sum of approximately Rs 3500* annually
(exclusive of taxes) can provide you a health insurance plan of Rs 5 lakh over a
period of 20 years, and a worry-free future for you and your family.

OBSERVATION
The following are the observation which I found from my market study &
personal experience with HDFC Standard Life Insurance
A clear idea about how the market functions was understood during
my study
Very high level of competition exists in the market where LIC holds a
major market share
People are not aware about different product portfolio available with
the company
49 | P a g e
CONCLUSION
Insurance was considered as unsought good which
require hard core selling, but in changing trend in income and people
becoming financially literate, the demand for insurance is increasing day
by day. Proper after sale service can help the advisors to generate more
business. Gradually people are realizing the fact that insurance is not a
necessary evil but means to attain worry free life.
HDFC Standard Life Insurance is a major private
player in the market. Inspite of LIC capturing a major market share HDFC
Standard Life has been able to maintain its position in the market. Its
major selling product is ULIP Plans which has created is strong market
position. A very good training programme is conducted explaining every
aspect of the products giving the insights of how actually products are
sold in the market. It also provides a good business opportunity to the
unemployed section in the society. The publicity done by the company
has a very good impact on the people. The company is committed to its
values & culture but lacks somewhere creating some sort of negative
image due to certain areas of concern being left unfocused.
However, the company has a wide scope of becoming
a successful & attaining top most position in the insurance market
because of the dedicated of the superiors & their support for the
subordinates
50 | P a g e
RECOMMENDATIONS
The following are some of recommendation as per my market study &
personal experience with the company:
Stringent action needs to taken against the employee for any delay
in the payment of funds to the customer.
Since people are just satisfied with the pricing strategy , more
schemes needs to be introduced keeping in mind the target
audience in India have low dispensable income
