1. Question from Avinash Singh: "Can you elaborate on the current non-par savings product demand and the impact of protection growth on your overall product mix? Additionally, regarding solvency at 191%, how do you see this influencing growth across product segments?"
Answer: I appreciate your comments. On the IRP basis, non-par products' growth is 10%, while protection surged by 44%. Our new participating product diverted attention from non-par, leading to a stronger combined growth. Concerning solvency, we're comfortable at 1.91 and see it supporting our ongoing growth strategy despite an increased focus on protection.
2. Question from Prayesh Jain: "Given the strong performance of the SBI channel, do you see this momentum continuing? Also, how do you manage cost ratios in the face of the labor code and GST impacts?"
Answer: We're pleased with our growth and expect the SBI channel to perform well, maintaining our guidance of 13%-14% APE growth. While costs have slightly risen due to the labor code and GST, we aim to stabilize around current levels, optimizing our mix to manage expenses efficiently.
3. Question from Madhukar Lada: "What is the current impact of GST on VNB margins, and how do you anticipate protection growth evolving over the next few years?"
Answer: The current impact of GST on margins stands around 150 basis points, which we aim to offset with a better product mix. Our protection growth is robust, tracking at 26.1%, and we anticipate continuing this trend, especially with new product launches focused on this segment.
4. Question from Sanketh Godha: "Can you clarify your expectations around organic profit generation versus solvency optimization for growth moving forward?"
Answer: Organic profit generation is vital, and while solvency has seen some impact from our product mix, we believe our current level supports our growth. We don't foresee limitations, considering our strong performance and product diversification in the pipeline.
5. Question from Rishi Jhunjhunwala: "With the par product growing faster than expected, how sustainable is this trend given the current yield environment?"
Answer: Our recent par product launches have aligned well with market demand, especially in child and money-back segments. While we anticipate growth, we also recognize it may stabilize over time. Our aim is for par products to contribute around 15%-20% of our business going forward.
