Preface

Summer projects during the break in studies after the completion

of the 1st year in postgraduate courses in management, are a

regular feature in the curriculum of MASTER OF FINANCE AND

CONTROL, DEPARTMENTOF APPLIED ECONOMICS AND COMMERCE,

PATNA UNIVERSITY, PATNA.

These summer impart training to the students through the

assignment of an on line project, which they have to complete for

the organization, while staying with them the whole period of 

work.

The projects not only give a chance to the students to apply

whatever knowledge they have gained over in the 1st year in a

practical way, but they also help them a practical experience of 

life as a manager in a real work setting. These projects help the

students to practically apply the concepts of management, like

planning, organizing etc., in a real work setting as well. These

projects are also the means of initiating the students to the

discipline of corporate life.

Overall the summer projects are an effective learning experience

for the management students and are very helpful for them in

their later lives as management professionals.

In my case the summer project at Reliance, has provided me with

an excellent opportunity to learn under some of the top

professionals in the field of finance. The project has also provided

E xecutive Summary

In today’s corporate and competitive world, I find that insurance

sector has the maximum growth and potential as compared to the

other sectors. Insurance has the maximum growth rate of 70-80%

while as FMCG sector has maximum 12-15% of growth rate. This

growth potential attracts me to enter in this sector and LIFE

INSURANCE POLICY has given me the opportunity to work and get

experience in highly competitive and enhancing sector.

The success story of good market share of different market

organizations depends upon the availability of the product and

services near to the customer, which can be distributed through a

distribution channel. In insurance sector, distribution channel

includes only agents or agency holders of the company. If a

company like LIFE INSURANCE POLICY has adequate agents in the

market they can capture big market as compared to the other

companies.

Chapter II

Profile of Organization

Introduction to the Company

Reliance Life Insurance - Founder

Few men in history have made as dramatic a contribution to their country’s

economic fortunes as did the founder of Reliance, Sh. Dhirubhai Ambani. Fewer still have

left behind a legacy that is more enduring and timeless.

• As with all great pioneers, there is more than one unique way of describing the true

genius of Dhirubhai: The corporate visionary, the unmatched strategist, the proud

 patriot, the leader of men, the architect of India’s capital markets, and the champion

of shareholder interest.

• But the role Dhirubhai cherished most was perhaps that of India’s greatest wealth

creator. In one lifetime, he built, starting from the proverbial scratch, India’s largest

 private sector enterprise.

Page | 11

Page 12: Abha Project

8/8/2019 Abha Project

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/abha-project 12/41

• When Dhirubhai embarked on his first business venture, he had a seed capital of 

 barely US$ 300 (around Rs 14,000). Over the next three and a half decades, he

converted this fledgling enterprise into an Rs 60,000 crore colossus—an

achievement which earned Reliance a place on the global Fortune 500 list, the firstever Indian private company to do so.

• Dhirubhai is widely regarded as the father of India’s capital markets. In 1977, when

Reliance Textile Industries Limited first went public, the Indian stock market was a

 place patronized by a small club of elite investors which dabbled in a handful of 

stocks.

• Undaunted, Dhirubhai managed to convince a large number of first-time retail

investors to participate in the unfolding Reliance story and put their hard-earnedmoney in the Reliance Textile IPO, promising them, in exchange for their trust,

substantial return on their investments. It was to be the start of one of great stories

of mutual respect and reciprocal gain in the Indian markets.

• Under Dhirubhai’s extraordinary vision and leadership, Reliance scripted one of 

the greatest growth stories in corporate history anywhere in the world, and went on

to become India’s largest private sector enterprise.

• Throughout this amazing journey, Dhirubhai always kept the interests of the

ordinary shareholder uppermost in mind, in the process making millionaires out of 

many of the initial investors in the Reliance stock, and creating one of the world’s

largest shareholder families.

  Our exhaustive research in the field of Life Insurance threw up some

interesting trends which can be seen in the above analysis. A general impression

that we gathered during Data collection was the immense awareness and

knowledge among people about various companies and their insurance products.

People are beginning to look beyond LIC for their insurance needs and are

willing to trust private players with their hard earned money.

People in general have been impression by the marketing and

advertising campaigns of insurance companies. A high penetration of print, radio

and Television ad campaigns over the years is beginning to have its impact now.

The general satisfaction levels among public with regards to policy and

agents still requires improvement. But therein lays the opportunity for a relative

new comer like ING. LIC has never been known for prompt service or customer 

oriented methods and Reliance can build on these factors.

SUGGESTION

• According the survey only 42% people are insured in PATNA so

reaming other part is potential for insurance sector.

• Among that 42% people who having insurance, they have

insurance 40% for self 28%for spouse 21% for children and 18%

for their parents and 11% for all family member, also its very

help full for insurance sector so they should take necessary step

for capture this potential.

• Only 42% people having insurance in PATNA in that 42% there

are 82 % people are under insured and other 18% people are

fully insured according to their income so that is also plus point

for insurance sector to capture the market
