    INTRODUCTION

    CONCEPT OF INSURANCE:

    Life has always been an uncertain thing. To be secure against unpleasant possibilities ,

    always requires the utmost resourcefulness and foresight on the part of man . To pray

    or to pay for protection is the spirit of the humanity . Man has been accustomed to

    pray God for protection and security from time immemorial . In modern days

    Insurance Companies want him to pay for protection and security . The insurance man

    says "God Helps those who help themselves "; probably he is correct.

    Too many people in this country are not in employment ; and work for too many no

    longer guarantees income security . Several millions are part-time , self employed and

    low -earning workers living under pitiable circumstances where there is no security

    cover against risk . Further the inherent changing employment risks , the prospect of

    continual change in the work place with its attendant threats of unemployment and

    low pay especially after the adoption of New Economic Policy and the imminent life

    cycle risks - a new source of insecurity which includes the changing demands of

    family life , separation , divorce and elderly dependents are tormenting the society .

    Risk has become central to ones life. It is within this background life insurance policy

    has been introduced by the insurance companies covering risks at various levels . Life

    insurance coverage is against disablement or in the event of death of the insured ,

    economic support for the dependents . It is a measure of social security to livelihood

    for the insured or dependents . This is to make the right to life meaningful, worth living

    and right to livelihood a means for sustenance. Therefore , it goes without saying that an

    appropriate life insurance policy within the paying capacity and means of the insured

    to pay premium is one of the social security measures envisaged under the Indian

  • 8/12/2019 Rai Rrrrrr

    9/59

    9 | P a g e

    Constitution . Hence , right to social security , protection of the family , economic

    empowerment to the poor and disadvantaged are integral part of the right to life and

    dignity of the person guaranteed in the constitution.

    Man finds his security in income (money) which enables him to buy food , clothing ,

    shelter and other necessities of life . A person has to earn income not only for

    himself but also for his dependents , viz , wife and children . He has to provide legally

    for his family needs , and so he has to keep aside something regularly for a rainy

    day and for his old age . This fundamental need for security for self and dependents

    proved to be the mother of invention of the institution of life insurance.

    What is Insurance?

    Mankind is exposed to many serious perils such as property losses from fire and

    windstorm and personal losses from disability and premature death. Although it is

    impossible for an individual to foretell or completely prevent their occurrence but it

    ispossible to provide against their financial effect the loss of property and earnings.

    From the point of view of the individual the life Insurance may be defined as a

    contract whereby for a Consideration amount called the premium , one party (the

    insurer) agrees to pay to the other (the insured) or a beneficiary a particular amount

    upon the occurrence of death or any other agreed event.

    Insurance is the method of spreading and transfer of risks. Losses of few unfortunate are shared by and spread over to many exposed to

    the same risk.

    Assets created by the owner in expectation of future needs have a value. Losses of assets for any reason deprive the owner of the expected benefits.

  • 8/12/2019 Rai Rrrrrr

    10/59

    10 | P a g e

    It acts as a form of a safeguard against misfortunes. From the point of view of community life insurance may be defined as a

    social device to make accumulations to meet uncertain losses resulting from

    premature death or disability.

    Purpose and need of insurance :

    Assets are insured , because they are likely to be destroyed , through accidental

    occurrences . Such possible occurrences are called perils. Fire, flood, breakdown, lightening,

    earthquake, etc. are perils. If such perils can cause damage to the assets , we say that

    the asset is exposed to that risk. Perils are the events. Risks are the consequential losses

    or damages. The risk to a owner of a building , because of the peril of earthquake ,

    may be a few crores of rupees, depending on the cost of the building and the

    contents in it. The risk only means that there is a possibility of loss or damage. The

    damage may or may not happen. Insurance is done against the contingency that it may

    happen. There has to be an uncertainty about the risk. Insurance is relevant only if there are

    uncertainties . If there is no uncertainty about occurrence of an event , it cannot be

    insured against . In case of human being death is certain , but the time of death is

    uncertain . In case of a person who is terminally ill , the time of death is not uncertain

    , though not exactly known. He cannot be insured. Insurance does not protect the asset. It

    does not prevent its loss due to the peril. The peril cannot be avoided through insurance. The

    peril can sometimes be avoided , through better safety and damage control

    management . Insurance only tries to reduce the impact of risk on the owner of the

    asset and those who depend on that asset. It only compensates the losses and that too,

    not fully. Only economic consequences can be insured. If the loss is not financial

    ,insurance may not be possible . Examples of non- economic losses are love and affection

  • 8/12/2019 Rai Rrrrrr

    11/59

    of parents , leadership of managers , sentimental attachments to family heirlooms ,

    innovative and creative abilities, etc.

    FUNCTIONS OF INSURANCE:-

    The functions of Insurance can be described into two parts:

    1. Primary Functions

    2. Secondary Functions

    The primary functions of insurance include the following:-

    Provide Protection -The primary function of insurance is to provide protection against

    future risk , accidents and uncertainty . Insurance cannot check the happening

    of the risk , but can certainly provide for the losses of risk . Insurance is actually a

    protection against economic loss , by sharing the risk with others.

    Collective bearing of risk Insurance is a device to share the financial loss of few among

    many others. Insurance is a mean by which few losses are shared among larger number

    of people.

    Assessment of risk -Insurance determines the probable volume of risk by evaluating various

    factors that give rise to risk. Risk is the basis for determining the premium rate also.

    Provide Certainty -Insurance is a device , which helps to change from uncertainty to

    certainty. Insurance is device whereby the uncertain risks may be made more certain.

    The secondary functions of insurance include the following:-

  • 8/12/2019 Rai Rrrrrr

    12/59

    12 | P a g e

    Prevention of Losses - Insurance cautions individuals and businessmen to adopt suitable

    device to prevent unfortunate consequences of risk by observing safety instructions ;

    installation of automatic sparkler or alarm systems , etc . Prevention of losses cause

    lesser payment to the assured by the insurer and this will encourage for more savings

    by way of premium . Reduced rate of premiums stimulate for more business and better

    protection to the insured.

    Small capital to cover larger risks - Insurance relieves the businessmen from security.

    Investments , by paying small amount of premium against larger risks and uncertainty.

    Contributes towards the development of larger industries Insurance provides

    development opportunity to those larger industries having more risks in their setting

    up . Even the financial institutions may be prepared to give credit to sick industrial

    units which have insured their assets including plant and machinery.

    Brief History Of Insurance

    The story of insurance is probably as old as the story of mankind . The same instinct

    that prompts modern businessmen today to secure themselves against loss and disaster

    existed in primitive men also . They too sought to avert the evil consequences of fire

    and flood and loss of life and were willing to make some sort of sacrifice in order

    to achieve security. Though the concept of insurance is largely a development of the

    recent past , particularly after the industrial era past few centuries yet its beginnings

    date back almost 6000 years.

    Life Insurance in its modern form came to India from England in the year 1818.

    Oriental Life Insurance Company started by Europeans in Calcutta was the first life

    insurance company on Indian Soil . All the insurance companies established during that

    period were brought up with the purpose of looking after the needs of European

    community and Indian natives were not being insured by these companies . However ,

    later with the efforts of eminent people like Babu Muttylal Seal , the foreign life

    insurance companies started insuring Indian lives. But Indian lives were being treated

    as sub-standard lives and heavy extra premiums were being charged on them.

    Bombay Mutual Life Assurance Society heralded the birth of first Indian life

    insurance company in the year 1870 , and covered Indian lives at normal rates.

    Starting as Indian enterprise with highly patriotic motives , insurance companies came

    into existence to carry the message of insurance and social security through insurance

    to various sectors of society. Bharat Insurance Company (1896) was also one of such

    companies inspired by nationalism . The Swadeshi movement of 1905-1907 gave rise

    to more insurance companies . The United India in Madras , National Indian and

    National Insurance in Calcutta and the Co-operative Assurance at Lahore were

    established in 1906 . In 1907 , Hindustan Co-operative Insurance Company took its

    birth in one of the rooms of the Jorasanko , house of the great poet Rabindranath

    Tagore , in Calcutta . The Indian Mercantile , General Assurance and Swadeshi Life

    (later Bombay Life) were some of the companies established during the same period .

    Prior to 1912 India had no legislation to regulate insurance business. In the year 1912

    , the Life Insurance Companies Act, and the Provident Fund Act were passed . The

    Life Insurance Companies Act, 1912 made it necessary that the premium rate tables

    and periodical valuations of companies should be certified by an actuary . But the Act

  • 8/12/2019 Rai Rrrrrr

    14/59

    14 | P a g e

    discriminated between foreign and Indian companies on many accounts , putting the

    Indian companies at a disadvantage

    The first two decades of the twentieth century saw lot of growth in insurance business. From

    44 companies with total business-in-force as Rs.22.44 crore, it rose to 176 companies with

    total business-in-force as Rs.298 crore in 1938. During the mushrooming of insurance

    companies many financially unsound concerns were also floated which failed miserably. The

    Insurance Act 1938 was the first legislation governing not only life insurance but also

    non-life insurance to provide strict state control over insurance business . The demand

    for nationalization of life insurance industry was made repeatedly in the past but it

    gathered momentum in 1944 when a bill to amend the Life Insurance Act 1938 was

    introduced in the Legislative Assembly . However , it was much later on the 19th of

    January , 1956 , that life insurance in India was nationalized . About 154 Indian

    insurance companies , 16 non-Indian companies and 75 provident were operating in

    India at the time of nationalization . Nationalization was accomplished in two stages ;

    initially the management of the companies was taken over by means of an Ordinance

    , and later , the ownership too by means of a comprehensive bill. The Parliament of

    India passed the Life Insurance Corporation Act on the 19th of June 1956 , and the

    Life Insurance Corporation of India was created on 1st September , 1956 , with the

    objective of spreading life insurance much more widely and in particular to the rural

    areas with a view to reach all insurable persons in the country , providing them

    adequate financial cover at a reasonable cost.

    Some of the important milestones in the life insurance business in India

    are:

  • 8/12/2019 Rai Rrrrrr

    15 | P a g e

    1818:Oriental Life Insurance Company , the first life insurance company on Indiansoil started functioning.

    1870: Bombay Mutual Life Assurance Society , the first Indian life insurancecompany started its business.

    1956:245 Indian and foreign insurers and provident societies are taken over bythe central government and nationalized . LIC was formed by an Act of Parliament, viz

    . LIC Act, 1956 , with a capital contribution of Rs. 5 crores from the Government

    of India.

    The General insurance business in India , on the other hand , can trace its roots to the

    Triton Insurance Company Ltd., the first general insurance company established in the

    year 1850 in Calcutta by the British.

    1907: The Indian Mercantile Insurance Ltd. set up , the first company to transact allclasses of general insurance business.

    16 | P a g e

    1968: The Insurance Act amended to regulate investments and set minimumsolvency margins and the Tariff Advisory Committee set up.

    1972: The General Insurance Business (Nationalization) Act, 1972 nationalized thegeneral insurance business in India with effect from 1st January 1973.

    107 insurers amalgamated and grouped into four companys viz. the NationalInsurance Company Ltd., the New India Assurance Company Ltd., the

    Oriental Insurance Company Ltd. and the United India Insurance Company

    Ltd. GIC incorporated as a company.

    Life Insurance

    Life insurance is a contract under which the insurer (Insurance Company ) in

    Consideration of a premium paid undertakes to pay a fixed sum of money on The

    death of the insured or on the expiry of a specified period of time whichever is

    earlier. In case of life insurance , the payment for life insurance policy is certain. The

    Event insured against is sure to happen only the time of its happening is not known .

    So life insurance is known as Life Assurance. The subject matter of insurance is life of

    human being. Life insurance provides risk coverage to the life of a person. On death

    of the person , insurance offers protection against loss of income and compensate the

    titleholders of the policy.

    Unit Linked Insurance Plan (ULIP)

    What is ULIP?

    A plan which gives complete clarity about the various charges deducted and why its

    being deducted and so how your fund will grow over time.

    Unit Linked Insurance Policies (ULIPs) as an investment avenue are closest to mutual

    funds in terms of their structure and functioning . As is the case with mutual funds ,

    investors in ULIPs is allotted units by the insurance company and a net asset value

    (NAV) is declared for the same on a daily basis.

    Similarly ULIP investors have the option of investing across various schemes similar

    to the ones found in the mutual funds domain , i.e. diversified equity funds , balanced

    funds and debt funds to name a few. Generally speaking , ULIPs can be termed as

    mutual fund schemes with an insurance component . However it should not be

    construed that barring the insurance element there is nothing differentiating mutual

    funds from ULIPs.

    ULIPs are a category of goal-based financial solutions that combine the safety of

    insurance protection with wealth creation opportunities . In ULIPs , a part of the

    investment goes towards providing you life cover. The residual portion of the ULIP

    is invested in a fund which in turn invests in stocks or bonds ; the value of

    investments alters with the performance of the underlying fund opted by you.

  • 8/12/2019 Rai Rrrrrr

    21/59

    21 | P a g e

    Simply put , ULIPs are structured in such that the protection element and the savings

    element are distinguishable , and hence managed according to your specific needs . In

    this way , the ULIP plan offers unprecedented flexibility and transparency.

    The research problem consists of series of closely related activities. At times, the first step

    determines the native of the last step to be undertaken. Why a research has been defined,

    what data has been collected and what a particular methods have been adopted and a host of

    similar other questions are usually answered when we talk of research methodology

    concerning a research problem or study. The project is a study where focus is on the

    following points:

    RESEARCH DESIGN-

    A research design is defined, as the specification of methods and procedures for acquiring the

    Information needed. It is a plant or organizing framework for doing the study and collecting

    the data. Designing a research plan requires decisions all the data sources, research

    approaches, Research instruments, sampling plan and contact methods.

    Research design is mainly of following types: -

    1.

    Exploratory research.

    2. Descriptive studies3. Experimental

    EXPLORATORY RESEARCH

    The major purposes of exploratory studies are the identification of problems, the more precise

    Formulation of problems and the formulations of new alternative courses of action. The

    design of exploratory studies is characterized by a great amount of flexibility and ad-hoc

    veracity.

    DESCRIPTIVE STUDIES

    Descriptive research in contrast to exploratory research is marked by the prior formulation of

    specific research Questions. The investigator already knows a substantial amount about the

    Unpublished Data: Data may be obtained from several companies, organizations,working in the same areas like magazines.

    Period of Study: This study has been carried out for a maximum period of 4 weeks.

    Area of study: The study is exclusively done in the area of marketing. It is a process

    requiring care, sophistication, experience, business judgment, and imagination for which

    there can be no mechanical substitutes.

    Sampling Design: The convenience sampling is done because any probability sampling

    procedure would require detailed information about the universe, which is not easily

    available further, it being an exploratory research.

    Sample Procedure: In this study judgmental sampling procedure is used. Judgmental

    sampling is preferred because of some limitation and the complexity of the random sampling.

    Area sampling is used in combination with convenience sampling so as to collect the data

    from different regions of the city and to increase reliability.

    Sampling Size: The sampling size of the study is 100 users.

    Method of the Sampling

    Probability Sampling

    It is also known as random sampling. Here, every item of the universe has an equal chance or

    probability of being chosen for sample.

    Probability sampling may be taken inform of:

    Simple Random Sampling A simple random sample gives each member of the

    population an equal chance of being chosen. It is not a haphazard sample as some people

    think! One way of achieving a simple random sample is to number each element in the

    sampling frame and then use random numbers to select the required sample. Random

  • 8/12/2019 Rai Rrrrrr

    48/59

    48 | P a g e

    numbers can be obtained using your calculator, a spreadsheet, printed tables of random

    numbers, or by the more traditional methods of drawing slips of paper from a hat, tossing

    coins or rolling dice.

    Systematic Random Sampling

    This is random sampling with a system! From the sampling frame, a starting point is chosen

    at random, and thereafter at regular intervals.

    Stratified Random Sampling

    With stratified random sampling, the population is first divided into a number of parts or

    'strata' according to some characteristic, chosen to be related to the major variables being

    studied. For this survey, the variable of interest is the citizen's attitude to the redevelopment

    scheme, and the stratification factor will be the

    values of the respondents' homes. This factor was chosen because it seems reasonable to

    suppose that it will be related to people's attitudes.

    Cluster and area Sampling

    Cluster sampling is a sampling technique used when "natural" groupings are evident in a

    statistical population. It is often used in marketing research. In this technique, the total

    population is divided into these groups (or clusters) and a sample of the groups is selected.

    Then the required information is collected from the elements within each selected group. This

    may be done for every element in these groups or a sub sample of elements may be selected

    within each of these groups.

    Non Probability Sampling

    It is also known as deliberate or purposive or judge mental sampling. In this type of sampling,

    every item in the universe does not have an equal, chance of being included in a sample.

  • 8/12/2019 Rai Rrrrrr

    49/59

    49 | P a g e

    It is of following type:

    Convenience SamplingA convenience sample chooses the individuals that are easiest to reach or sampling that is

    done easy. Convenience sampling does not represent the entire population so it is considered

    bias.

    Quota SamplingIn quota sampling the selection of the sample is made by the interviewer, who has been given

    quotas to fill from specified sub-groups of the population.

    Judgment SamplingThe sampling technique used here in probability > Random Sampling.

    The total sample size is 100 profiles.

    I have selected Probability sampling method for this research study.

    Data Collection: - Data is collected from various customers through personal interaction.

    Specific questionnaire is prepared for collecting data. Data is collected with more interaction

    and formal discussion with different respondents and we collect data about investment

    pattern of people by face to face contact with the persons from whom theinformation is to be

    obtained (known as informants). The interviewer asks them questions pertaining to the

    survey and collects the desired information.

    Limitation

    The time available to conduct the study is little; it being a wide topic has a limitedtime.

    Limited resources are available to collect the information about the human resourcedevelopment.

    Market is so much volatile and it is difficult to forecast anything about it whether youtrade online or offline.

    Some of the aspects may not be covered in my study, its gives knowledge about Foodoil market and environmental small prospects and its challenges.

    In a rapidly changing industry, analysis on one day or in one segment can change veryquickly. The environmental changes are vital to be considered in order to assimilate

    the findings.

    The foremost limitation is regarding the sources of information. The informationcontained has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable and in good faith,

    but which may not be verified independently.

    The limitation is that some of the calculations are based on certain assumptionsconsidered appropriate.

    Using several statistical tools derives the estimates. Hence the findings obviouslycarry all the limitations of the statistical tools used.

    Same sets of data from different sources are different. Since not all the data areavailable from a single source, an attempt has been made to standardize the data

    wherever required, which is essential to maintain uniformity throughout the project.

    The aggregate figures for various parameters are subject to exclusion or inclusion ofvarious constituent variables. While sincere efforts are made to ensure the absence of

    mismatch, the extent to which this can be done is limited.
