Why did Bajaj allow motor CE to decline in Q1?

If you look at TP, price is controlled... For motor third party, it is controlled by the government... there has been no price revision, but the inflation claim keeps on happening every year.

Why is NEP higher than NWP this quarter?

during the quarter, we've actually done a new ceding on a treaty, which actually covers the book of the past... If I actually exclude this one-off impact, my NWP growth would have been close to 16.5%.

if you see the trend for last three years, every year you'll see in quarter one, there is a spike, and by year end... it normalizes... we on as-is basis should settle at close to 65%.
