LIC Q4 FY25 Results Due on May 27 | What to expect from the PSU life insurance giant?
Analysts expect the life insurance PSU to stage a largely positive quarterly performance with a significant rise in its profitability owing to an improving product mix.
According to Zee Business research, LIC is estimated to register a standalone net profit of Rs 14,800 crore for the quarter ended March 31, translating to a jump of 7.5 per cent compared to the corresponding period a year ago. Its net premium income is estimated to decline 2.6 per cent on a year-on-year basis to Rs 1,48,300 crore, according to the research. Net premium income is a key measure of an insurance business’s revenue stream.
The analysts estimate the insurance giant’s new business annualised premium equivalent (APE) to decline 17 per cent on a year-on-year basis, to Rs 17,500 crore.
New business APE is a key metric that determines an insurance player’s income from its new business sales.
According to Zee Business research, changes in the company’s commission structure are estimated to have dented its annualised premium equivalent. In October, LIC made significant changes to the overall commission structure for its agents.
