“Towards the latter part of Q3FY24, we introduced Click 2 Achieve, an industry first, do-it-yourself (DIY) non-par savings product. This innovative plan empowers customers to create unlimited combinations, tailor their cash flows to align with personal goals, with the cushion of a guaranteed return. The product has been received well across channels and garnered 100 crores within 4 weeks of its launch. This is our 2nd ‘100 crore in a month’ blockbuster product to be launched this year.

We are proud to announce our new bancassurance partnerships with Karnataka Bank, Karur Vysya Bank and NKGSB Co-operative Bank and we are confident of growing with them over the next few years whilst offering their customers a range of innovative and customer-centric financial solutions.

As the protection gap in our country continues to widen, we remain focused on offering solutions to tap into this vast opportunity. We expect to grow by leveraging multiple drivers including strengthened market position at HDFC Bank, capitalising on ongoing investments such as branch expansion and new tie-ups, continuing to scale up a high quality proprietary business led by agency and favourable macro environment shifts.”
