The Life Insurance Corporation of India, the largest insurer in the country, reported a 17% increase in profit for the third quarter on Friday, driven by a decline in employee-related expenses. For the quarter ending December 31, LIC's profit after tax rose to Rs 11,056 crore ($1.26 billion), up from Rs 9,444 crore a year earlier.

Employee compensation and welfare expenses fell by 30%, totaling Rs 6,691 crore.

However, LIC's policy sales during the quarter faced challenges due to new regulations that lowered the charges for policyholders who opted to close their policies before maturity. Before the change in regulations that took effect in October, the insurer had experienced a boost in sales.
