In 2019, over 80 percent of vehicles (excluding two wheelers) in India were covered under motor insurance. Thereby, the motor insurance segment enjoys the highest penetration within the insurance sector of the country. In contrast, 28 percent of adults had a life insurance and 32 percent of lives were covered under an individual, group, or governmental health insurance.
An emerging segment was the crop insurance, which reported a penetration of 27 percent of land in relation to the total cultivated land in 2018. This development was supported by the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY), a government scheme founded in 2016.
