India Motor Insurance Market Analysis

The India Motor Insurance Market size in terms of gross written premiums value is expected to grow from USD 11.96 billion in 2024 to USD 19.48 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 10.25% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

A growing population of 1.38 billion and the soaring aspirations of India’s populace present the opportunity for motor insurance companies to tap large volumes of prospective consumers. Driven by a pick-up in health and motor insurance segments, the non-life insurance industry has grown by 16% in the current year compared to 11% in the previous year. India's motor insurance market is experiencing rapid growth, driven by a dynamic automotive sector. The country's economy is steadily expanding, resulting in an increase in disposable income and a growing preference for personal transportation. This has enabled India to become the fourth-largest automotive sales market in the world. Government initiatives such as FAME II, PLI Scheme for Semiconductor Manufacturing, and Advanced Chemistry Cell have further contributed to the growth of the automobile sector, which is, in turn, contributing to the insurance market's growth. As a result, India's motor insurance industry has registered a growth in non-life insurance premiums earned. Additionally, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), Machine Learning, and Telematics has risen exponentially, allowing companies to digitally transform their businesses and adapt to the changes in customer behavior.

Additionally, the pandemic expedited digital adoption, and most agents felt customers were more willing to use portals/apps post-pandemic. Further, the pandemic increased the insurance penetration rate and triggered awareness of insurance and demand for protection products.

India Motor Insurance Market Trends

Rise in Sales of Automobiles Indicates a Positive Growth of Motor Insurance Industry

The Indian automobile industry registered its highest-ever annual domestic passenger vehicle sales last year. Passenger vehicle sales were up 6 percent year-on-year, with Utility Vehicles (UVs) being the driving force. The total motor vehicle units sold in the country are 23 percent higher than the previous year. Major four-wheeler companies like Tata Motors, Kia India, and Toyota Kirloskar Motor recorded the highest growth in annual sales. The growth in sales numbers highlights the increasing demand for cars in India. Moreover, India overtook Japan as the world's third-largest light vehicle market last year, led by a strong surge in demand for personal mobility and last-mile deliveries post-pandemic. This increasing trend of automobile sales has risen in the India Motor Insurance Industry.

Indian Motor Insurance is Propelled by Increase in Digitalization

The online insurance segment in India has the most rapid growth in the Indian motor insurance market over the forecasted period. This is due to the ease of purchasing online insurance policies, the availability of discounts, offers, and plans from aggregators, and the increasing penetration of the internet, which has further contributed to the segment's growth. Additionally, the initiative the Insurance Regulatory And Development Authority took to allow insurers to carry out video-based customer service confirmations has also contributed to the expansion of the online insurance market.

Online marketplaces give Indian consumers a wide range of financial products so they can make informed decisions quickly without worrying about being scammed or misled. Insurance policies are especially appealing because online marketplaces give consumers all the necessary info, like mandatory deductibles and no-claim bonuses, claims settlement ratios, etc. Plus, most online marketplaces make it easy to pay for insurance policies with advanced digital payments. Consumers can pay for procedures with any digital payment, like debit cards, credit cards, digital wallets, or direct bank transfers. With cashback and payment plans, consumers can buy insurance policies on some of the best online marketplaces in India.
