The consumers and the companies in the life insurance industry have responded positively to the various initiatives of the government, especially to GST 2.0. At LIC, we have further increased our performance by achieving higher and better parameters on volume growth as well as product and channel diversification. For the nine months period ended December 31* 2025, the Non Par share within the individual business has increased to 36.46% on an APE basis, as compared to 27.68% for the same period last year. Further, the VNB margin has also improved to 18.8% for the nine months period ended December 31%' 2025, as compared to 17.1% for the same period last year. While we roll out various advanced digital projects, we have also kept a very focused approach on creating a force of women agents through the Bima Sakhi Yojana with the objective of reaching out to more customers in rural India.
