13th-month persistency declined to 75.75% vs 76.66% YoY on premium basis; 61st-month to 61.09% vs 61.84%. Management attributes this to low ticket-size policies and seasonal income patterns in mass-market/rural customer segments, noting interventions (minimum ticket size revision) will take 12+ months to reflect in cohort data.
Overall market share by first-year premium declined to 57.07% from 57.42% YoY; individual business share slipped to 35.84% from 37.21%. CEO acknowledged that increasing number of players (including 100% FDI entrants) will continue to fragment market share, though stated focus remains sustainable growth over share defense.
Analyst repeatedly requested breakdown of 2.8% operating assumption impact into GST/persistency/expense components; management declined to provide granular splits, stating factors 'interact' and change with business mix. GST estimated at ~40% of the 2.8% headwind, but exact split remains unverifiable.
Total agent count declined to 14.07 lakh from 14.19 lakh YoY; market share by number of agents fell to 45.32% from 47.40%. One major alternate channel partner faced operational issues and could not repeat previous year's volumes, though management expects recovery.
