Since the liberalization in 2000, the insurance industry in India has been growing considerably driven by multiple favorable economic and demographic factors. The Indian health insurance market grew at a CAGR of 34.00% during the review period and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 23.51% over the forecast period to register the fastest growth among all the insurance sectors. Factors such as robust economic growth, changing demographic patterns such as the rise in ‘double-income no kids’ families, increased FDI limits and the expansion of distribution channels are expected to contribute to the market growth in the forecast period.
