Ramachandran said there would be de-growth in premium income in the current fiscal as compared to the last fiscal.

The main reason for the de-growth in premium income collection is slowdown in the economy, he said, adding that for Aviva, term insurance policies constitute 20 per cent of overall sales.

On capital infusion, he said the capital base of Aviva at the moment is Rs 2,005 crore.

"There is no immediate need for fresh capital and the solvency ratio is 400 per cent as compared to the mandated 150 per cent," he added.
