12. GST Exemption: Game-Changer for India’s Insurance Future?

The removal of GST on life and health insurance has been hailed as a landmark reform but will it truly move the needle on penetration, affordability, and accessibility? While policyholders expect insurers to pass on the full benefit, critics argue that structural challenges from low awareness and weak distribution reach to limited product innovation may blunt the reform’s impact.

This session challenges industry leaders to take a hard look at whether GST exemption will be the breakthrough needed to accelerate “Insurance for All by 2047”? 

Panelists will debate the real-world implications for insurers, customers, and regulators, and whether the industry is ready to leverage this reform to transform coverage across India’s vast and diverse population.

 

13. The New Era of Strategic Life Insurance Partnerships: What Do Cross-Sector and Global Collaborations Mean for India’s Future?

As India’s life insurance sector scales toward deeper penetration and “Insurance for All,” new strategic alliances between global insurers and large domestic conglomerates are reshaping the competitive landscape.

This session explores how such partnerships can accelerate distribution reach, strengthen product innovation, expand protection in underserved markets, and redefine what the next decade of life insurance growth could look like.
