How to read this page

GWP — Gross Written Premium: total premium underwritten, including any reinsurance accepted.
GDPI — Gross Direct Premium Income: premium from direct business only. Insurers disclose both; they are not the same number.
ICR — Incurred Claims Ratio: net incurred claims ÷ net earned premium.
Commission ratio — net commission paid ÷ net written premium.
Combined ratio — (incurred claims + expenses + commission) ÷ net earned premium. Below 100% means an underwriting profit, before investment income.
Solvency ratio — available solvency margin ÷ required solvency margin. IRDAI's regulatory minimum is 1.50×.

This page shows figures in ₹ crore; the detail pages it links to (Underwriting Performance, Distribution Mix) show the same facts in ₹ lakh as filed. Where a filing for a given period couldn't be located, this site says "Not disclosed" rather than estimating.
