India's largest insurer, LIC, reports a 17% rise in Q3 net profit despite declining premiums.

State-owned LIC reported a 17% increase in third-quarter net profit to ₹11,056 crore, largely due to a 30% drop in employee-related expenses. Despite a 9% decline in net premium income, LIC's solvency ratio improved to 2.02. The insurer's assets under management grew 10.3% to ₹54.77 trillion. LIC maintains its market leadership with a 57.42% share in first-year premium income. However, new business metrics showed declines, including a 26.87% fall in value of new business premium.
