1. ABSTRACT.

This project is about the equity research analysis of the life


insurance sector in India. In this project I learn about the working of life
insurance sector. and also I go through the different companies annual reports
and their financials. I am doing internship with the Aditya Birla Sun Life
Insurance Company Ltd. and my project objectives which includes the
information about companies, the financials of company, as well companies
profitability, and the valuations of the life insurance companies.

Equity research mainly means analyzing the company's financials


where we do some ratio analysis, and understood the financial conditions of
the company, and then we will do the valuations of shares according to that
investors will decide whether to invest in or not.

Equity research is all about the valuation of a listed company. i.e.


listed companies trade on stock exchange BSE & NSE. while doing equity
research we consider the economic aspects like GDP, growth rate, market size
of the industry and do the company analysis of life insurance sector..once this
is done, once we did company analysis then we will understand the financial
position of the companies in market, and the growth rate of the companies of
giving returns.

Equity research analysis is very important aspect of the companies


developments and also helpful to analyses the demand of the shares of the
particular company in different market situations. most of the investors are
depend on the provided reports of the company.

8
In this project I am going to do fundamental analysis , ratio analysis and
the valuation of the companies of life insurance sector. now the question is

WHAT IS THE RELATION BETWEEN LIFE INSURANCE


POLICIES AND EQUITY RESEARCH?

Answer :-
Insurance companies are giving ULIP Plans. which are (Unit
Link Insurance Plan) This plans deals with the equity and mutual funds and
that is why equity research is needed in listed life insurance companies.
Insurance companies are provides the protection plus investment plans.
This is the reason for which listed life insurance companies need to
do the equity research. As I said that these life insurance companies are
provide investment place plus insurance plan then they have to engage with
the investment activities e.g. Insurance Companies, Pension Fund Companies,
Asset management firms, etc and therefore it is very important and essential to
do equity research before putting clients money into it.

For doing this project I am referring some sites and articles about the
equity research of the life insurance sector.

2. INTRODUCTION.

Equity research mainly means analyzing the company's financials


where we do some ratio analysis, and understood the financial conditions of
the company, and then we will do the valuations of shares according to that
investors will decide whether to invest in or not.

Equity research plays an important role that fills the information


gap between the buyers and sellers of the shares. because every investors i.e.
individual or institutional may not have the resources, or capability to analyse
every stock.

Equity research tries to find the value stock out of the massive ocean
of stocks and help buyers to generate profits. the main purpose of equity
research is to provide insights into the financial performance of a company
and highlight the potential risk posed to its investors.

Equity research also plays very important role to maintain the


stabilised profitability of the company. and this helps to increase in the
market performance and market capital of the company.

The insurance sector in India is majorly divided into 2 categories :-
Life Insurance.
General Insurance.

Life Insurance :-
Life insurance or life assurance is a contract between the policy owner and
the insurer, where the insurer agrees to pay a designated beneficiary a sum of
money upon the occurrence of the insured individual's or individual's death or
other event, such as terminal illness or critical illness. In return, the policy
owner agrees to pay a stipulated amount at regular intervals or in lump sums.
There may be designs in some countries where bills and death expenses plus
catering for after funeral expenses should be included in Policy Premium. In
the United States, the predominant form simply specifies a lump sum to be
paid on the insured's demise.
Life insurance is a type of insurance. As in all insurance, the insured transfers
a risk to the insurer. The insured pays a premium and receives a policy in
exchange. The risk assumed by the insurer is the risk of death of the insured.
There are various types of insurance policies available today to
protect your loved once and the things you love. In Life Insurance policy,
Insurance indemnifies to pay the insured person's family.
In India, there are 24 life insurance companies operating which have been
approved and recognized by IRDAI (Insurance Regulatory and Development
Authority in India. ) which is a authority body of Insurance Industry.

WHAT IS IRDAI :-

IRDAI Is designed to safeguard and protect the interest of the policy


holder and to check that their rights are not violated by any company. Role of
IRDAI is to monitor the entire insurance sector of India. It also acts as a
custodian of the rights of the policy holders. It makes sure that all the
companies are surviving by the rules so as to safeguard the rights of citizens of

7. RESEARCH METHADOLOGY.

This project measures the financial performance and the position


of the insurance companies with the help of the fundamental analysis of the
insurance as a whole sector as well as the companies selected, fundamental
analysis is done with the help of the financials and the annual reports of that
company available on their official websites. and also by using different tools
like ratio analysis for doing fundamental analysis.
I am using Secondary research tools for doing analysis i.e. annual
reports, articles, different websites etc..
Data used for the performing analysis is received from the genuine
source i.e. from the annual reports of last few years of the companies from
their official websites for all the companies.
I am considering Consolidated balance sheets and profit and loss
accounts for analysis. and for doing fundamental analysis tools which I am
using for are ratio analysis and the comparison of Valuations of the
companies and also the analysis related to the future growth of the sector.

26
8. FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS.

8.1. INTRODUCTION OF FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS :-


The basis of fundamental analysis is to determine the financial
stability and the future profitability of companies, and therefore their future
worth, which is extremely important as this future worth determines their
future share price. To put this simply, a company with its sales revenue and
profits increasing will be worth more than a company with declining sales
revenue and profits. Financial reports are provided by companies, typically on
a quarterly basis together with one final annual report.
These financial reports are accounting statements which provide a
means of tracking how much money a company is making and how much it is
spending. Stock market Analysts use these financial reports to forecast future
sales revenue and profits. While an individual stock investor can go through
the financial reports themselves, generally it is quicker and simpler to use
summarized data that is readily available from information websites. These
websites also usually provide forecast sales and profit data as well.

economic growth. An effective and well developed financial system helps to

ECONOMIC ASPECTS AFFECTING INSURANCE INDUSTRY

Fig No : 10

Economic aspects of affecting insurance industry includes the following


aspects like GDP, Inflation Rate, Interest Rates, and Employment rates are
explained below.
1. GDP (Gross Domestic product) :-
GDP is assumed as "the world's most powerful statistical indicator of
national development and progress. The most important and the fastest
growing sector of Indian economy are services. Trade, hotels, transport and
communication; financing, insurance, real estate and business services and
community, social and personal services account for more than 60 percent of
GDP. Agriculture, forestry and fishing constitute around 12 percent of the
output, but employs more than 50 percent of the labor force. Manufacturing
accounts for 15 percent of GDP, construction for another 8 percent and
mining, quarrying, electricity, gas and water supply for the remaining 5
percent.

30
GDP OF INDIA
Fig No : 11

High growth of GDP induces an economic effect through higher per-


capita and disposable income and savings, which in turn create a favorable
market demand for life insurance. On the other hand, life insurance also gives
support to the capital market and savings of Indian life insurance business.
Data pertaining to Indian life insurance and macroeconomic variables broadly
indicate a close relationship and interdependence between economic variables
and life insurance demand.
2. INFLATION RATE IN INDIA :-

Inflation is nothing but a sharp rise in prices. Inflation refers to an


overall increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which is a weighted
average of prices for different goods. Annual inflation, refers to the percent
change of the CPI compared to the same month of the previous year.

31
INDIAN INFLATION RATE IN 2020

Fig No : 12

3. INTEREST RATES IN INDIA :-

In India, interest rate decisions are taken by the Reserve


Bank of India's Central Board of Directors. The official interest rate is the
benchmark repurchase rate. In 2014, the primary objective of the RBI
monetary policy became price stability, giving less importance to
government's borrowing, the stability of the rupee exchange rate and the need
to protect exports. In February 2015, the government and the central bank
agreed to set a consumer inflation target of 4 percent, with a band of plus or
minus 2 percentage points, from the financial year ending in March 2017.

32
RBI INTREST RATES.
Fig No : 13

The analysis indicated a strong correlation between


inflation and life insurance premium underwritten with a correlation
coefficient of 0.97 whereas interest rate has a negative correlation with life
insurance premium as expected with a correlation co-efficient of -0.507. It
can reliant from this analysis that when inflation rises, it reflects an increase
in life insurance premium amount for new business as the premium charged
should be adjusted under inflationary conditions.
Hence the new life insurance premiums have increased and it
is reflected in a strong positive correlation between inflation and life insurance
premium. A fall in interest rates would lead to an increase in life insurance
premium because people will invest huge amount and will take more number
of policies from LIC of India and other private life insurance companies when
compared to other financial savings. Since people will invest and save their
money in policies for yielding additional returns with life risk cover
33
4. EMPLOYMENT RATE :-

Insurance helps create both direct and indirect employment in the


economy. Alongside regular jobs in insurance, there is always demand for a
range of associated professionals such as brokers, insurance advisors, agents,
underwriters, claims managers and actuaries. The increasing insurance
business has increased the demand for highly skilled professionals as well as
semi-skilled and unskilled people. For example, life insurance provided direct
employment to an additional set of 30,912 people besides adding more than
4,07,768 individual agents during the financial year 2009 and 38,480 people
besides adding more than 5,03,666 individual agents during the financial year
2011.
To ensure continued growth, the need of the hour is trained manpower
with specialized knowledge about insurance. Insurance companies need to
invest in the professional training of their employees, especially for subjects
such as underwriting, claims and risk management.

5. WHY VIETNAM IS THE NEXT MANUFACTURING HUB?

We all know the current political , economic, and about the tents
relation among America, India Vs China, etc.. situations in the country ,

Apple are moving from China to Vietnam (India). why to Vietnam and not
anywhere else? it will get clear after going through below paragraph.
Vietnam’s emerge nce as a manufacturing hub is gathering
momentum. From the seven emerging Asian based countries for
manufacturing, Vietnam has emerged as number one, due to its low
manufacturing costs, skilled labor force, geo-political and economic stability.
In addition to the financial benefits, international companies have set up
manufacturing in Vietnam to offset their dependency and supply chain risk on
China, as a single resource.
some reasons of why Vietnam is the next manufacturing hub are :-
1. Easy to set up production unit as the place is bit near from china. also due to
good infrastructure.
2. Vietnam invests in healthcare and education therefore chance to get huge
human resource. high economic growth.
3. Vietnam Dong ( currency ) pegged to USD.
4. Low cost and procedure to start a new business or build a new
manufacturing plant. 'Ho Minh Chi' City can be a next manufacturing hub
from Vietnam.
5. Vietnam’s labor costs are among the lowest in Asia.
This are the reasons of why Vietnam can be a next manufacturing
hub. If this happens then, employment level will be increase in India and
unemployment will decreases and as there is a high employment rate in this
case people will have extra cash in their hands so that they can invest money
in private or public insurance companies comparing with bank rates. this can
prove as opportunity (growth ) as well a challenge (of Attracting peoples
towards them to invest) for insurance industry in India.

5. PORTER'S FIVE FORCE MODEL :-

Fig No : 18
source : Google image

1. COMPETITIVE RIVALRY :- (HIGH)

Insurance has become more of a Commodity. The Insurance


companies with low cost structure, better customer service and greater
efficiency will be able to beat out its competitors. Considering that more than
50 companies exist in this sector, The intensity of competition would
definitely be high.

2. THREAT OF NEW ENTRANTS :- (HIGH)


The threat for new entrants lies within the industry itself. Some
companies are operating in the niche area of underwriting insurance. They are

40
running the threat of being squeeze out by big players. Another threat is other
financial services companies entering the market.

3. BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIERS :- (MEDIUM)


For the insurance industry, the source of funds is the premium
paid by its customers, hence intertwining the customer and suppliers here. The
suppliers of fund here, hence have the option of choosing from various
insurance agencies. however, the insurance agencies cannot reduce the
premiums below a minimum support level. Thereby, the bargaining power of
suppliers is medium.

4. THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES :- (LOW)


There is no real threat of substitutes for the insurance industry.
however, PPF and PF can act as low level of substitute.

5. BARGAINING POWER OF BUYER :- (MODERATE TO HIGH)


There are 2 types of buyer / consumers individual and corporate.
large corporate clients who pay millions of dollars in premium have a lot more
bargaining power than individual clients. the buyers have moderate to high
bargaining power as a whole

the market. Enterprise Value of HDFC life insurance company is high. again
which add more value to companies valuation.

liability it helps to know the liquidity of the company. The current ratio
provides us with a rough estimate that whether the company would be able to
“survive” or not. the ratio should be greater than 1 , current ratio for FY 2020
is less than 1 which means in year 2020 company have more current liabilities
than current assets.

Prudential life insurance is a zero debt company, and lower ratio generally
considered better as it shows the companies ability to pay off the companies
debts with its own capital.

the shareholders.

The profitability ratios like Gross, Operating and Net Profit Margin
Ratios are constraint for the FY 16 and FY 17 then there is increase in the
ratios by approx 1.5% but after FY18 there is a great fall in the profits by
approx 26 % and again in FY20 again fall by 27% to 28% these fig. clearly
says that, the company is earning huge losses year on year, and the reason
behind this is the returning ratios of the company are lower. that means
company is investing the huge amounts in the market but not get the returns as
company's investment decision are going wrong that's what I feel personally
after looking the financial statements and the rate of the returns and
profitability of the company. According to me the shares of these company is
facing huge losses because of their decisions like where to invest and at what
time to invest are may going wrong, and on the top of it COVID-19 situation.

but in FY 2019 it grows by only 20% and again in FY 2020 it is growing on
approx by 57% which is a huge number. VNB calculates profit for the present
year.
New business margins of HDFC life insurance company are showing
growth by approx 23% to 28% from FY 2017 till half FY 2020 consistently. if
company will grow at 21% for the next 10 year then the embedded value

but in FY 2019 it grows by only 24% and again in FY 2020 it is growing on
approx by 33% , SBI life insurance company is earning less profits compared
to HDFC life insurance company. .

New business margins of SBI life insurance company are showing growth
by approx 15% to 18% from FY 2017 till half FY 2020 consistently. if
company will grow consistently on the same growth for the next 10 year then
the embedded value multiple of the company will be 4 times. which is huge.

According to me on the basis of EV, VNB AND, NBM. HDFC life


insurance company is on number two i.e. after HDFC life insurance company
SBI life insurance company is good to invest in.

grows at 17.80% which is showing very less growth than the HDFC and SBI

are showing growth by approx 10.1% , 16.5%,17% and 21% from FY 2017

will be only 3 times. which is very low compared to the HDFC and SBI life
insurance companies.

81

insurance company is on number three i.e. after HDFC life insurance

10. CONCLUSION AND LIMITATIONS :-

CONCLUSION :-

Firms involved in investment activities required equity research. e.g.


Insurance companies, Pension fund companies, Asset management firms..etc.
such companies invest in equity market heavily, with the aim of earn more
returns for their clients. therefore it is very important for them to conduct in
depth analysis of a particular sector before putting clients money into it.
Equity research analysis report do SWOT analysis of the company
using its financial data and present them in detailed analysis
In this report I did sector analysis which results that life insurance
sector is a long term business and for current situation It may reflects some
decrease in the profitability due to the COVID-19 pandemic situation. but in
long term that means in future life insurance sector will be the one of the
growing sectors.
I did company analysis of 3 life insurance companies which are
HDFC life insurance company , SBI life insurance company and ICICI
prudential life insurance company, and did the valuation based on the
Embedded Value, Value of New Business. and New Business Margin. of the
companies.
The main measures of to do valuation of any life insurance
company. and the results are HDFC life insurance company is the company
which shows the highest returns i.e. the embedded value multiple is 6.3 times
in current situation and with the consistent growth rate since FY 2017 to half
FY 2020 at the rate of 20%. therefore the HDFC life insurance company is the
no. 1 company in life insurance sector.
On 2nd no. SBI life insurance company is earning returns . which
means the embedded value of SBI life is showing returns approx 4 times, plus
the growth rate is lower than the HDFC life insurance company.
On 3rd no. ICICI prudential life insurance company is valued. ICICI
prudential life insurance company's embedded value is only 3 times. and the

83
growth rate of EV, VNB & NBM are lower than the HDFC life and SBI life
insurance companies.
On the basis of the valuations I will suggest clients to invest more I
HDFC life insurance company more, which can give investors more returns
compared to other two companies in life insurance sector.
Equity research analysis only provide advice on the best stock
to invest in and he should buy , sell or hold shares of which company.
it's not obligatory that investor should follow the same.

LIMITATIONS TO PROJECT REPORT :-

 Only 3 companies are listed in life insurance sector. that are


HDFC Life Insurance Company Ltd.
SBI Life Insurance Company Ltd.
ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company Ltd.

 Very limited range to do equity research analysis.

 Only Fundamenta l Analysis . i.e. Financials Ratio Analysis and Valuation of


company shares.
