New India Assurance reported FY26 GWP of ₹47,174 crores (up 8.15% YoY) with net profit after tax of ₹1,384 crores, a 40% increase from FY25. Q4 FY26 net PAT grew 61% to ₹558 crores. The company's domestic gross premium grew 10.9% outpacing the industry growth of 9.3%, increasing market share from 12.56% to 12.74%. The combined ratio worsened to 122.57% (vs 116.78% FY25) mainly due to a one-time wage revision impact of ₹3,525 crores; adjusted combined ratio was 116.67%. Motor segment underwent strategic recalibration with management targeting portfolio correction within one year, focusing on private car and selective two-wheeler segments. Health and PA, contributing 47.57% of the book, drove 66% of overall growth. The company launched "War Cover" for Fire segment and operationalized the "Bharat Maritime Pool" under the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative. Going forward, the company will pursue "Go Retail" strategy while maintaining underwriting discipline.
The company demonstrated strong profitability growth and market share gains, but the combined ratio remains elevated due to wage revision costs and competitive pricing pressures in Motor. Management's strategic shift toward retail segments and portfolio quality over volume should support margin improvement over the next year, though competitive intensity remains high.
