Business Standard|November 06, 2024
The share of standalone health insurers (SAHIs) in the retail health insurance segment rose to 57 per cent of the Gross Direct Premium Income (GDPI) worth nearly ₹18,000 crore in the April-August period of FY25.

The share was around 40 per cent in the whole of FY18 and 56 per cent in FY24. According to the RHP filed by Niva Bupa, the growth in SAHI market share is attributed to a rising number of individual agents, a faster-growing hospital network, and a higher number of product launches.
