EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Insurance industry has seen an explosive growth since the sector was opened
to private participation. It has taken private players some time, but finally players
like BHARTI AXA LIFE, KOTAK LIFE INSURANCE, ICICI prudential life
insurance, Bajaj Allianz, HDFC STANDARD,TATA AIG etc have been able to
carve out there niche in this huge and still to be fully tapped Indian market.
The objective of this project was to know brand awareness Bharti AXA Life
Insurance possess in expanding Insurance market in the country. It needs to
undergo more and more advertising to get some new customers and to get some
new ideas. Moreover insurance is such a growing sector that it has full potential
to have new customers, as about 86% of people in India are still uninsured. So it
is very essential to have new people in the system that can add new customers to
the company. Jobs in insurance involve helping people and businesses manage
risks to protect themselves from disaster and lose to anticipate potential risk
problems.
This was achieved through three-pronged efforts. The First
objective of the study is to gauge brand recall ability of the company. The Second
objective of the project is to analyze the different ways it can adopt to reach

CONCEPT OF INSURANCE :
Insurance is an arrangement to deal with unpleasant contingencies. It is contractual
arrangement which provide partial or total protection against adverse, typically financial
outcomes. While there are many outcomes of risks which are insurable, there are many
more against which there can be no insurance. Broadly insurance contracts can be
divided into
1) LIFE INSURANCE
2) NON- LIFE INSURANCE
INDIAN INSURANCE INDUSTRY
Insurers
Insurance industry, as on 1.4.2000, comprised mainly two players: the state insurers:
Life Insurers: Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC)

Assets are likely to be destroyed or made non-functional due to perils like fire,
floods, breakdowns, lightning and earthquake.
Damage to assets caused by any peril is the risk that assets are exposed to.
Insurance becomes relevant only if there are uncertainties of occurrence of event
leading to loss.
We can say that human life is an income generating assets which can be lost on
early death or disabilities caused by accidents.
Insurance does not protect the assets but only compensates the economic or
financial loss.
Benefits of life insurance
1) Superior to an ordinary saving plan : Life insurance has better emerged as a
saving plan as it provides full protection against the risk of loss of life. Besides it
provides the low cost insurance plan to high risk coverage purposes.
2) Encourages and forces thrifts: A savings deposit can be too easily withdrawn.
Many people may not be able to resist the temptation of using the balance for
some other purposes. On the other hand the payment of life insurance premium is
viewed with seriousness and becomes a compulsion. Thus, insurance brings
about compulsory savings.

3) Easy settlement and protection against some condition : The insured can name
a person (nominee) to whom the policy money would be payable in the event of
his death. The process of a life insurance policy can be protected, against the
claims of condition of condition of life insured by effecting a valid assignment of
policy. The beneficiaries are fully protected from condition except to the extent
of any interest in the policy retained by the insured.
4) Administering the legacy of beneficiaries : it often happens that the provision
which a husband or father has made through insurance is quickly lost through
speculative or non wise investment or by unnecessary expenditures on luxuries.
The policy holder can arrange that in the event of his death the beneficiary should
receive , instead of a single sum the following:
a) Payment of the net claim amount by equal installments over a specified
period of years.
b) Payment of the claim amount by smaller monthly installments over the
selected period followed by a lump sum at the end.
5) Ready marketability and suitability for quick borrowing : after an initial period, if the policy holder finds himself unable to continue payment of premium
he can surrender the policy alternatively, he can confide over a temporary
difficulty by taking loan.

REVIEW STUDY

7/30/2019 Manoj Report
26/75
India being the second biggest market for Life Insurance in the world after China has
attracted many companies from all over the world. Currently the FDI restricts the foreign
players to enter India directly. They have to form a JV with an Indian company with total
capital limit of maximum 26% in the whole newly formed business. All over there are 19
registered Life Insurance companies in the country. The next 5 years will see huge
growth in this sector. The CAGR is expected to be 45%.the reason for such huge
potential is its low penetration in the Indian market. As per the reports the penetration
rate in the country is just around 4%. These registered 19 players are facing cut throat
competition. Thus to win this competition it is very important to make your presence feel
to the customers. Brand awareness plays a very vital role in this industry. This is one of
those industry where product is not sold as per the demand, but vice-versa i. e. initiation
is taken to sell not the customer asks for it.
Another feature of this industry is its purpose, while buying the buyer considers its
add on features as the main aim of buying, which is tax rebate. There are various tax
benefits available with the insurance policy which leads to make taxable income zero.
This is the reason why insurance is sold maximum in the month of January, February,
March as the investor gets maximum opportunity to zero down its taxable income.
Facing growing competition even as many consumers are yet to feel the need for
their products, insurance companies are looking at television reality shows to get their
message across.
Engaging consumers: Max New York Life is in talks for advertiser funded
programmes on the lines of HULs.ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Co. Ltd is funding a
26
-
7/30/2019 Manoj Report
27/75
reality show, loosely based on the bonding between fathers and sons, called Papa Aur
Mein (My father and I).
Another private insurance company, Max New York Life Insurance Co. Ltd, is also
readying a TV show to promote its offerings.
We are in talks to make a reality show for ICICI Prudential Life. The show based on
the father-son relationship will likely be aired this year, says Deepak Dhar, country
head, Endemol India Pvt. Ltd, the Indian subsidiary of the Netherlands-based TV content
producer Endemol Group.
We have not finalized anything yet. Right now, we are talking to Endemol and our
media buying agency Mindshare to see if it will work, says Sujit Ganguli, senior vice-
president and marketing head, ICICI Prudential.
Industry executives say the shows theme has been finalized and it will have the
companys products woven into the content, albeit discreetly.
Meanwhile, we are in talks with some TV channels and producers about funding a
show. The idea is to engage consumers at a broader level, says Debashis Sarkar,
director, marketing, product management and corporate affairs, Max New York Life.
To be sure, advertiser funded programmes, or AFPs, are not a new phenomenon on
Indian TV. Consumer products maker Hindustan Unilever Ltd, or HUL, has been
succcessful with programmes such as Wheel Smart Srimatiji and Rin Mera Super Star.
HUL is said to be working on 15 such programmes woven around its different brands.If ICICI and Max launch their shows, it will be the first time financial services
companies are piggybacking on commercial TV shows.

One goal is to try and reach out to those, especially in rural areas, who are still not
insured.
In rural areas, for instance, only around 25% people have bought insurance of any
kind and in low-income households, insurance penetration stands at around 30%.
Meanwhile, the market is still dominated by state-run Life Insurance Corp. of India,
which accounts for 70% of the Indian insurance market.
Plain-vanilla advertising will only build the brand whereas such programmes will
help build the awareness about our products and services, says Maxs Sarkar. It is the
next level of marketing.
Indian television reaches at least 55% of the population, some 120 million of 212
million households.
TV as a medium will help us get through to a wider audience quite effectively and
efficiently, adds ICICIs Ganguli.
Financial planners say such advertising will work, at least initially.
Such efforts are likely to get companies a lot of mileage in terms of building
consumer connect. But once such shows become common and the consumers are able to
see through the idea, it might lose its efficacy, says Gaurav Mashruwala, a Mumbai-
based financial planner.
Financial product companies have so far been focused on building their brand
awareness in the market. Whereas now they need to build awareness about their productsand services. AFPs are a good strategy to achieve that goal, says Mozez Singh, vice-
president, B6 India, the branded entertainment network of media buying firm Havas
Media.

Service Offerings versus Products
Most physical goods tend to be relatively high in search qualities; these are attributes
that a customer can determine prior to purchasing a product, such as colour, style, shape,
price, fit, feel, hardness and smell. Services, by contrast, may emphasise experience
qualities, which can only be discerned after purchase or during consumption; as with
taste, wearability, ease of handling, quietness and personal treatment. Finally, there are
credence qualities-characteristics that customers find hard to evaluate even after
consumption like surgery, legal services, etc.
Since services are very competitive and there is a very high level of replication of
products, consumers do not perceive a drastic fall in quality with falling price. For highly
intangible service offerings in particular, organisation-wide factors, such as the level of
functional service quality, may be emphasised when adding value (Gronroos, 1984;
Parasuraman et al, 1991). Zeithaml, Parasuraman and Berry (1985) also highlighted the
uniqueness of service offerings in terms of their intangibility, non-standardisation,
perishability and inseparability of production and consumption. In addition,
contributions from Bharadwaj et al (1993), and Zeithaml (1988) suggest that extrinsic
cues such as image and reputation may be particularly important in adding value in cases
where consumer understanding of service offerings is limited. This is likely to be thecase, in particular, where service offerings are complex and, as a result, highly mentally
intangible to the average consumer. Leonard L Berry, in his model shown above,
29
-
7/30/2019 Manoj Report
30/75
highlights the importance of the customers experience, which in turn is based on the
service performance.
The presented brand is the companys controlled communication of its identity
through advertisement while the external brand communication refers to the information
customers absorb about the company that essentially is uncontrolled by the company.
These factors, combined with the customers experience, lead to increased brand
awareness and brand meaning. Brand meaning refers to the customers dominant
perceptions of the brand and hence differs from awareness. Both these factors put
together lead to development of brand equity. In services marketing, unlike in product
marketing, it is the customers experience that plays a very important role and even if his
services experience differs from the advertising message, he will go more by his
experience. Thus, the main differentiating role is played by the service performance.

RESEARCH
METHODOLOGY

7/30/2019 Manoj Report
32/75
Research Design: I have used a Descriptive research design as the problem is
already known. The problem is that BALIC does not have enough recall ability to
tap the huge market of insurable people. So a Descriptive research design is used
to find solution to this problem and determine the best possible alternatives.
Target Population : Target population for this research was the people who do
financial planning and reside in the area of Delhi and NCR.
Sampling Technique : Random sampling is used to conduct the survey of the
research.
Sample size : A sample size of 100 people was chosen who were willing to share
information and wanted to be a part of the survey.
Research Tools and Questionnaire : For this research, Personal contacts,
personal observation and market survey tools were used. We have personally
contacted the Financial Advisors of the company after getting the data from the
company and got the questionnaires filled.
The plan of action is as follows :
1. Collection of information from primary sources.
2. Compilation of the collected information.
3. Interpreting the available information so as to suit needs of research.
32
-
7/30/2019 Manoj Report

4. Finally analyzing the information collected and drawing conclusions.
Data Analysis and Report Preparation: After collecting the data, SPSS which
is analytical software, was used to analyze the data. SPSS is a very scientific and
accurate tool to analyze huge amounts of data with ease. The data collected
through the survey was first scientifically fed into the software and then it was
analyzed with the help of graphs and tables which include frequency graphs and
cross tabular graphs.

Introduction
The project is to gauge the brand awareness of Bharti AXA in the market. Since
the company is one and half years old, its less awareness in the minds of the
consumer is a bottleneck in its development process. As per the company
development plans, the
Company is expanding through investing more and more in manpower
recruitment and infrastructure development. Company believes in expansion by
developing good infrastructure and recruiting the best people in the industry. One of
the most important tools which companies normally employ is huge advertisements.
The company has laid stress more on other aspects rather than on advertisements
Services marketing has a very sensitive aspect where the strategy revolves around
the customer. Building a strategic relationship with the customer is very essential. By
identifying the drivers of consumer choice, a service marketer can identify the factors
that can be leveraged in different service conditions to add value to the consumer and
thus differentiate the offering. The process of adding value is in essence differentiating
35
-
7/30/2019 Manoj Report
36/75
ones offerings effectively in the eyes of the consumer, and this is where branding
services becomes important.
Some of the reasons that make branding a valuable proposition for services are:
Strong brands increase customers trust of the invisible purchase.
Strong-brand companies have high mind share with targeted customers, which
contributes to market share.
They enable customers to better visualize and understand intangible products.
They reduce customers perceived monetary, social and safety risks in buying
services.

CONCLUSION

&
RECOMMANDATION
S
From this survey the following results has been found out:
Mutual Funds are the latest investment tools for investors.
These investments are not done as an additional investment, but as a serious
source of income.
Majority of the respondents have taken insurance policy.
LIC hold the market leader position
66
-
7/30/2019 Manoj Report
67/75
But ICICI is more popular in the age group of 20-35.
LIC is slowly losing its market share due to increase in the entry of the private
players.
They can invest maximum 20% of the yearly income.
Majority of the respondents are satisfied with products and the return they fetch.
All those who have not taken Life Insurance Policy reason it due to improper
knowledge.
Respondents know Bharti group as a retail and tele communication company.
Majority of respondents know about Bharti AXA Life Insurance Company.
And the main source of information is through Television.
Apart from Life Insurance Bharti is into General Insurance, which the company
launched recently.
The recent venture that Bharti took is Mutual Funds which is gaining popularity
slowly.
People have wrong perception about the industry which makes it tough for the
companies to sell. The bottleneck is that the consumer is scared of the private
insurers as they may run away; Peerless is the company which did it.
As more and more private companies are entering this sector, it makes necessary
for the company to advertise a lot to capture the mind share of the consumer.

Recommendations
Company should invest more in advertising as it is in its developing stages.
More and more TV and newspaper advertising is required to reach the interiors of
the population.
This will help the company in increasing its penetration.
As per the regulatory obligations the company needs achieve a target of selling
policy in the rural sector too, which thus can be achieved through rural
marketing.
More and more outdoor advertisements are required to attract customers.
The company should provide proper knowledge about the products, as the
investor is not too interested in buying the policy due to improper knowledge
The company should start rural education programs to make aware about the
Insurance industry and thus it would increase its market awareness.
The insurance companies should focus less on the tax rebate part and should
focus more on the financial safety.
