SBI Life Q1 Profit Rises 22% on Premium Growth Despite Higher Costs
SBI Life Insurance reported a 22% year-on-year rise in standalone net profit to around Rs 720 crore for Q1 FY27, driven by strong growth in new business and renewal premiums. Gross written premium increased 20%, with new business premium up 23% and renewal premium 17%. The company’s embedded value and assets under management also grew, while cost ratios rose due to GST exemption, higher employee expenses, and reinsurance costs. SBI Life maintained a strong solvency ratio and market leadership in individual new business premiums.
