PREFACE

Practical training is an important part of management courses.

Theoretical studies are not sufficient to get into corporate world

and understand the complexities of large-scale organizations.

Practical training exposes us to real practices of management in the

organization. It also exposes students to the treasures of

experience, knowledge and leaning which prerequisites of making

a successful career are.

I deem it privilege to have undergone this project. I acknowledge

that the practical training that I got from this cannot be gained

otherwise. I found my project very interesting and challenging.

WHAT IS INSURANCE

The business of insurance is related to the protection of the

ECONOMIC VALUES OF ASSETS. Every asset has a value. The

asset would have been created through the efforts of the owner.

The asset would have been created through the efforts of the

owner. The asset is valuable to the owner, because he expects to

get some benefits form it. It is a benefit because it meets some of

his needs. The benefit may be an income or in some other form. In

the case of a factory or a cow, the product generated by it is sold

and income is generated. In the case of a motor car, it provides

comfort and convenience in transportation. There is no direct

income. Both are assets and provide benefits.

Every asset is expected to last for a certain period of time during

which it will provide the benefits. After that, the benefit may not

be available.

There is a life-time for a machine in factory or a cow or a motor

car. None of them will last for ever. The owner is aware of this and

he can so manage his affairs that by the end of that period or life-

time, a substitute is made available. Thus he makes sure that the

benefit is not lost. However, the asset may get lost earlier. An

accident or some other unfortunate event may destroy it or make it

incapable of giving the benefits. An epidemic may kill the cow

suddenly. In that case, the owner and those enjoying the benefits

Page 10: 198962755 vivek

therefore, would be deprived of the benefits. The planned

substitute would not have been ready. There is an adverse or

unpleasant situation. Insurance is a mechanism that helps to reduce

the effects of such adverse situations. It promises to pay to the

owner or beneficiary of the asset, a certain sum if the loss occurs.

HISTORY OF INSURANCE

Insurance has been known to exist in some form or other

since 3000 BC. The Chinese traders, traveling treacherous

river rapids would distribute their goods among several

vessels, so that the loss form any one vessel being lost, would

be partial and shared, and not total. The Babylonian traders

would agree to pay additional sums to lenders, as the price

for writing off the loans, in case of the shipment being stolen.

The inhabitants of Rhodes adopted the principle of general

average of ‘general average’, whereby, if goods are shipped

together, the owners would bear the losses in proportion, if

loss occurs, due to jettisoning during distress. {Captains of

ships caught in storms, would throw away some of the cargo

to reduce the weight and restore balance. Such throwing

away is called jettisoning} The Greeks had started benevolent

societies in the late 7 th century AD, to take care of the

funeral and families of members ho died. The great fire of

Page 11: 198962755 vivek

London in 1666,in which more than 13000 house were lost,

gave a boost to insurance and the first fire insurance

company, called the fire office, was started in 1680.

The origins of insurance business as in vogue at present, is

traced to the Lloyd’s Coffee House in London. Traders, who

used to gather in the Lloyd’s coffee house in London, agreed

to share the losses to their goods while being carried by

ships. The losses used to occur because of pirates who robbed

on the high seas of because of bad weather spoiling the goods

or sinking the ship. In India, insurance began in 1818 with

life insurance being transacted by an English company, the

Oriental Life Insurance Co. in 1870 in Mumbai. This was

followed by the Bharat Insurance co. in 1896 in Delhi, the

Empire of India in 1897 in Mumbai, The United India in

Chennai, the National, the National Indian and Hindustan

Cooperative in Kolkata.

Later, were established the cooperative Assurance in Lahore,

the Bombay Life (originally called the swadeshi life), the

India Mercantile, the new India and the Jupiter in Mumbai

and the Lakshmi in New Delhi. These were all Indian

companies started as a result of the swadeshi movement in

the early 1900s. By the year 1956, when life insurance

Page 12: 198962755 vivek

business was nationalized and the life Insurance Corporation

of India (LIC) was formed on1st September 1956, there were

170 companies and 75 provident fund societies transacting

life business in India. After the amendments to the relevant

laws in 1999, the L.I.C. did not have the exclusive privilege

of doing life insurance business in India. By 31.8.2007,

sixteen new life insurers had been registered and were

transacting life insurance business in India.

The History of Insurance in India

Some of the important milestones in the life insurance

business in India are:

1912 - The Indian Life Assurance Companies Act enacted as

the first statute to regulate the life insurance business.

1928 - The Indian Insurance Companies Act enacted to

enable the government to collect statistical information about

both life and non-life insurance businesses.

1938 - Earlier legislation consolidated and amended to by the

Insurance Act with the objective of protecting the interests of

the insuring public.

Page 13: 198962755 vivek

1956 - 245 Indian and foreign insurers and provident

societies taken over by the central government and

nationalized. LIC formed by an Act of Parliament, viz. LIC

Act, 1956, with a capital contribution of Rs. 5 crore 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.

Life Insurance a Basic Need

Life insurance is a contract providing for payment of a sum of

money to the person assured or, failing him, to the person

entitled to receive the same, on the happening of certain event.

A family is generally dependent for its food, clothing and shelter

on the income brought in at regular intervals by the bread winner

of the family. So long as the he lives and the income is received

steadily, that family is secure; but should death suddenly intervene

the family may be left in a very difficult situation and sometimes,

in stark poverty.

Page 14: 198962755 vivek

Uncertainty of death is inherent in human life. It is this uncertainty

that is risk, which gives rise to the necessity for some form of

protection against the financial loss arising from death; insurance

substitutes this uncertainty by certainty.

Few Advantages of Life Insurance.

1. It is superior to an ordinary savings plans:

This is so because unlike other saving plans, it affords full

protection against risk of death. In case of death, the full sum

assured is made available under a life assurance policy; whereas

under other savings schemes the total accumulated savings alone

will be available. The latter will be considerably less than the sum

assured, if death occurs during early years.

2. Insurance encourages and forces thrift:

A savings deposit can be too easily withdrawn. Many may not be

able to resist the temptation of using the balance for some less

worthy purpose. On the other hand, the payment of life insurance

premiums becomes a habit and comes to be viewed wit the same

Page 15: 198962755 vivek

seriousness as the payment of interest on a mortgage. Thus

insurance, in effect brings about compulsory saving.

3. Easy settlement and protection against creditors:

The life assured can name a person or persons to whom the policy

moneys would be payable in the event of his death. The proceeds

of a life insurance policy can be protected against.The claims of

the creditors of the life assured by effecting a valid assignment of

the policy. A married women’s property act policy constitutes a

trust in favor of the wife and children and no separate assignment

is necessary. The beneficiaries are fully protected from creditors

except to the extent of any interest in the policy retained by the

assured.

.

4. Administering the legacy for beneficiaries:

It often happens that a provision which a husband or father has

made through insurance is quickly lost through speculative or

unwise investment or by unnecessary expenditure on luxuries.

These contingencies can be provided against in the case of

insurance. The policyholder can arrange that in the in the event of

his death the beneficiary should receive, instead of a single sum

(a). payment of the net claim amount by equal installments over a

Page 16: 198962755 vivek

specified period of years, or (b).payment of the claim amount by

smaller monthly installments over the selected period followed by

a lump sum at the end thereof.

5. Ready marketability and suitability for quick borrowings:

After an initial period, if the policy holder finds himself unable to

continue payment of premiums he can surrender the policy for a

cash sum. Alternatively he can tide over a temporary difficulty by

taking loan on the sole security of the policy without delay. Further

a life insurance policy is sometimes acceptable as security for a

commercial loan.

6. Tax relief:

For computing income tax (especially in India the Indian income

tax act) follows deduction from income tax payable, a certain

percentage of a portion of the taxable income of individuals which

is diverted to payment of insurance premiums. When this tax relief

is taken into account it will be found that the assured is n effect

paying a lower premium for his insurance.

Page 17: 198962755 vivek

How Insurance Works

The mechanism of insurance is very simple. People who are

exposed to the same risks come together and agree that, if any one

of the members suffers a loss, the others will share the loss and

make good to the person who lost. All people who send goods by

ship are exposed to the same risk related to water damage, ship

sinking, piracy, etc. those owning factories are not exposed to

these risks, but they are exposed to different kinds of risks like,

fire, hailstorms, earthquakes, lightening, burglary, etc. like this,

different kinds of risks can be identified and separate groups, made

including those exposed to such risks. By this method, the risk is

spread among the community and the likely big impact on one is

reduced to smaller manageable impacts on all.

If a Jumbo Jet with more than 350 passenger’s crashes, the loss

would run into several crores of rupees. No airline would be able

to bear such a loss. It is unlikely that many Jumbo Jets will crash at

the same time. If 100 airline companies flying Jumbo Jets, come

together into an insurance pool, whenever one of the jumbo jets in

the pool crashes, the loss to be borne by each airline would come

down to a few lakhs of rupees. Thus, insurance is a business

‘sharing’.

Page 18: 198962755 vivek

Role of Insurance in Economic Development

For economic development, investments are necessary.

Investments are made out of savings. A life insurance

company is a major instrument for the mobilization of

savings of people, particularly from the middle and lower

income groups. These savings are channeled into investments

for economic growth.

An insurance company’s strength lies in the fact that huge

amounts come by way of premiums. Every premium

represents a risk that is covered by that premium. In effect,

therefore, these vast amounts represent pooling of risks. The

funds are collected and held in trust for the benefit of the

policyholders.

The management of insurance companies is required to keep

this aspect in mind and make all its decisions in ways that

benefit the community. This applies also to its investments.

This is why successful insurance companies would not be

found investing in speculative ventures. Their investments

benefit the society at large.

Page 19: 198962755 vivek

The system of insurance provides numerous direct and

indirect benefits to the individual and his family as well as to

industry and commerce and to the community and the nation

as a whole. Those who insure, both individuals and

corporate, are directly benefited because they are protected

from the consequences of the loss that may be caused by the

accident or fortuitous event. Insurance, thus, in a sense

protects the capital in industry and releases the capital for

further expansion and development of business and industry.

The every existence of risk that is, uncertainty concerning the

future, is a severe handicaps in economic activities. Insurance

removes the fear, worry and anxiety associated with this

future uncertainty and thus encourages free investment of

capital in business enterprises and promotes efficient use of

existing resources.

Thus insurance encourages commercial and industrial

development and there by contributes to a vigorous economy

and increased national productivity.

Present day organization of industry, commerce and trade

depend entirely on insurance for their operation, banks and

Page 20: 198962755 vivek

financial institutions lend money to industrial and

commercial undertakings only on the basis of the collateral

security of insurance. No bank or financial institution would

advance loans on property unless it is insured against loss or

damage by insurable perils.

Insurers are closely associated with several agencies and

institutions engaged in fire loss prevention, cargo loss

prevention, cargo loss prevention, industrial safety and road

safety. Before acceptance of a risk, insurers arrange survey

and inspection of the property to be insured, by qualified

engineers and other experts.

The object of these surveys is not only to assess the risk for

rating purposes but also to suggest and recommend to the

insured, various improvements in the risk, which will attract

lower rates of premium and what is more important , reduce

the loss potential. For example, burglary surveyors make

recommendation in regard to security measures such as better

locking system, appointment of Watchman, etc. Engineering

surveys play a most useful part in accident prevention as

valuable technical advice is provided in respect of plant and

machinery.

Page 21: 198962755 vivek

Insurance ranks with export trade, shipping and banking

services as earner of foreign exchange to the country. It helps

to earn foreign exchange and represent invisible exports.

Introduction of the process of

Recruitment of Life Advisers

Page 52: 198962755 vivek

Objectives of the study

To understand the process of RECRUITMENT OF LIFE

ADVISERS in Bharti AXA life insurance.

How to recruits agent for Bharti-AXA life insurance

To know about the view of general public about the job of agent

Why people are not willing to work with as an agent, especially

with private player.

Meaning of Recruitment

Finding the right people is a make-or-break factor for success in

business today. Recruiting the top talent for a job takes time and

you have to attract quality candidates who have the knowledge and

skills needed to help your company grow.

The fact is, your success with recruitment depends on how well

you prepare your job ad, and use source of recruitment, and your

interviewing skills.

Page 53: 198962755 vivek

Prepare a job ad that works to start, you want to be sure that your

potential candidate truly understands the job. The clearer you are

with the task description, working conditions and advantages, the

less time you will waste examining and rejecting applications

The essentials of any job description are:

A brief description of your company

Detailed outline of the tasks involved

Qualifications and experience required

Equipment and resources used to do the work

Skills required using them.

However, you should also include work benefits (e.g., vacation,

travel and perks), general working conditions (e.g., scheduling,

outside work) and the specific traits required (e.g.,

teambuilding and communications skills). Ultimately, you want to

be perceived as an attractive employer in a competitive market.

Find the right recruitment vehicle choose the vehicle that best

works for your company, depending on your budget and resources.

Word of mouth, or simply telling your employees, friends and

Page 54: 198962755 vivek

colleagues about a job opening, is a less expensive strategy but

generates fewer candidates. The advantage is that you already

know something about your recruiters and their skills, knowledge

and achievements. This is a preferred method with companies that

have a finder's fee program for their employees.

Advertising is a toss of the dice. If it goes well, it can help you find

ideal candidates in a regional, national, or international pool. If not,

it's a costly investment yielding few results. Make sure to factor in

the time it takes to go through

a large number of resumes.

Employment agencies cost more but generally provide a good

range of candidates. The employment advisors look at your needs,

screen a number of candidates, and only send you the applications

that meet your requirements. Bear in mind that the largest

employment agencies do not necessarily offer the best choice of

candidates. There are numerous agencies that specialize in

recruitment in specific sectors.

Page 55: 198962755 vivek

Recruiting online such as monster.ca, workopolis.com, and

jobboom.com. These can provide inexpensive, worldwide access to

employees. In fact, 65% of job seekers now have access to these

types of services.

Using the Internet for recruiting usually involves regular visits to

specialized recruitment sites, joining newsgroups, and posting your

job openings on recruitment sites, electronic publications and on

your own Web site.

Page 56: 198962755 vivek

After recruitment the next part is selection of best candidates.

Make the interview deliver

Since the purpose of an interview is to identify and verify the

candidate's potential, it should be structured to bring out all the

desired competencies and aptitudes. Remember that you have to

decide between the candidates: you could create a point system or

analysis grid for comparing their strengths and weaknesses.

Here are a few points to consider when structuring an interview:

Make a list in advance of the points for discussion and

corresponding questions.

Present the candidates with a situation they could face on the

job and ask them how they would react. This will enable you to

evaluate the candidates' knowledge, skills and work methods.

Ask the candidates to describe some difficult situations

encountered in previous jobs and to explain the way in which

they were resolved. This will give you the chance to gauge the

Page 57: 198962755 vivek

candidates' self-confidence, creativity and problem-solving

skills.

Ask the candidates to describe a difficult situation involving

colleagues and how it was resolved. This will enable you to test

their aptitude for teamwork.

Ask the candidates about their ambitions and plans to ensure

they fit your company profile.

Beware of asking questions about personal interests. They can get

the interview off track or annoy people who want to keep their

work and private lives separate.

Definition of Agent

Page 58: 198962755 vivek

According to section 182 of Indian contracts Act, an “agent” is a

person employed to do any act for another or to represent

another in dealing with a third person. In the insurance industry,

the term “agent” is ordinarily applied to a person engaged by the

insurer to procure new business. The insurance Act definers and

insurance agent as one who is licensed under Section 42 of that

Act and is paid by way of commission or otherwise, in

consideration of his soliciting of procuring insurance business,

including business relating to the continuance, renewal or revival

of policies of insurance. He is, for all purposes, an authorized

salesman for insurance and needs a license.

An agent is one who acts on behalf of another. The “another” on

whose behalf the agent acts, is called the principal in this case.

The insurance company is the principal in this case. The lawyer

is the agent of the client, when he argues the case in court. An

ambassador is an agent of his country. The agent represents the

principal and acts on his behalf. Some insurers designate their

agents as ‘advisers”,” consultants” etc. as if they are independent

advisor or consultant would not be appointed by an insurance

company. He would be knowledgeable enough as a person to be

Page 59: 198962755 vivek

approached for advice or consultation. Some insurance agents

may acquire that status. All insurance agents should strive to

attain that status.

Procedure for becoming an Agent

Page 60: 198962755 vivek

The insurance Act, 1938 lays down that an insurance agent must

possess a licence under Section 42 of that Act. The licence is to be

I didn’t get complete feed from the shopkeepers about the

question as they are busy in there work and had less time to fill

questioned.

Sincerity of answering the questions cannot be judged.

Time was the major constraint for me to understand the long

process of recruitment and selection.

Limited money available for project.

Finding

Why people are not ready to work with private players in life

insurance?

Or

Why people are not ready to work as an agent in any

company?

In these days LIC created a very well image in the mind of

General public because it is semi Government Company and

also an oldest company. In short most people of Indian believe

upon the LIC only.

During the training period we felt that most of people who are

already working in insurance sector think that it is easy to sell

the product of LIC than to sell the product of other life

insurance company.

Most of people say that this job affects upon there social

relation with other and also effect upon there business.

Most of people believe that private insurance companies carried

out fraud activity that’s why they never believe upon the private

players.

Page 96: 198962755 vivek

People think that it is a time consuming activity and also

required huge market skills.

Some people said that only greedy people like to work in

insurance sector.

Because of three days compulsory training.

Page 97: 198962755 vivek

Conclusion

In India, there is throat cut competition in the market of life

insurance that brand service which adopt new strategies for sales. I

concluding the whole story it can be said that people are much

more aware about the aspects of life insurance and also have

knowledge about the role and act of agent but mostly people

unwilling to work as life insurance agent and mostly people prefer

to work with LIC because it is a semi government corporation.

Page 98: 198962755 vivek

Suggestions

Bharti-AXA life insurance company must give more

advertisements on electronic media and print media, as it help in

enhance its goodwill and more people are willing to work with

reputed companies, through proper advertisement it become easy

to sell the product.

An insurance company must work with honesty to win the

confident of its agent and general public.

Duration of training must be reducing as in these day people have

no extra time.

Fees charged by companies from candidate for IRDA exam and

training should reduce.

Many other extra facilities must be provide to agent to attract them

such local and foreign trips, special price on achieving a target,

open bank account at free of cost,

Bharti-AXA Life Insurance Company must organize more and

more seminars and also participate in the job trade fairs to find out

more candidates.

Page 99: 198962755 vivek

Increase the commission of agents.

Company must relic to candidate or other people that they are

doing a social service for the welfare of society.

Better career opportunity must be provided to an adviser, such as

on role job, promotion etc.

A special function must organize time to time in which the special

prizes distribute among those agent who perform well.

The duration of the process of recruitment and selection is too long

(one and half month), during this process mostly candidate loss

there interest, so there is an urgent need to reduce the duration of

this period.

Reduce the minimum premium amount it will help company to

attract the agent of other company, as it increases the scope of

market of its agent.
