Under the current economic circumstances, property and casualty insurers should have edge over life insurers. These companies have been riding on healthy...

The next two months will be weak and slowdown in Ulips to continue for the rest of the year Life insurance companies reported 50% year-on-year (y-o-y) (down 40% y-o-y for private players) decline in individual annualised premium equivalent (APE) in March 2020, translating to 5% y-o-y growth for FY20 (14% y-o-y growth in 11MFY20).
