partialNon-par savings mix reduction, pricing pressure, strategy for FY27; motor TP release higher; Bajaj Direct loan quality concerns.
Non-par, the way we see it is a bucket of non-par plus annuities... Our annuity actually doubled from 5% - 10%... overall non-par did come down from 21 to 16... The market has actually looked at more higher age customers...

evasiveMotor TP release higher at INR 800 cr vs usual INR 600-700 cr.
If you look at TP release is a factor of how the book develops... I don't see that there's a huge shift in terms of the release happening... It's a natural phenomena. I don't see any change in the philosophy.

partialMeasures to tighten loan quality at Bajaj Direct amid concerns.
As a marketplace, we get a ringside view of the prevailing risk... we choose our manufacturer partners very, very carefully. Our volumes are not affected and hence revenue is not affected.

If you look at Bajaj General combined ratio, it's 200% last year, no. Even the industry deteriorated by about 6%-7% combined ratio... Next year it again depends on how the industry moves.

The break even for us would be close to about, INR 1 lakh crores, with the continued mix on, equity versus debt versus, passive. At this point, we are actively considering both the PMS as well as the SIF.

directReason for EV assumption change of INR 51 cr.
On the portfolio basis, I think assumptions are holding good. You would see there has been a dip in our persistency, and that's what largely is reflecting in assumption change.

evasiveReinsurance strategy and higher ceding in retail lines.
Reinsurance is not a strategy. It is how you build your book... The approach does not change... Our combined ratio vis-à-vis the industry will answer that question.

Overall, if you look at it, there was a set of products which were introduced by a few market leaders about 12 months-18 months back... Largely, it is just one bucket that has impacted the entire sector.
