This report on Embedded Value Results (“EV Results”) as at March 31, 2024 has been
prepared by the Company and the results presented in the report have been reviewed by
Milliman Advisors LLP.
1 Basis of preparation
The Embedded Value (EV) is a measure of the consolidated value of the shareholders’
interest in the life insurance business. The EV Results have been prepared based on the
Indian Embedded Value (IEV) methodology and principles as set out in Actuarial Practice
Standard 101 (version 1.02) (APS10) issued by the Institute of Actuaries of India (IAI). As
APS10 is applicable for the limited purpose of an Initial Public Offering (IPO), compliance
with APS10 is limited to the methodology and principles used to develop the EV Results
presented in this report. The EV methodology is broadly in line with the Market Consistent
Embedded Value2 (MCEV) principles used in Europe.
A detailed description of the EV methodology is provided in section 3.

3 Methodology
3.4 VIF
The VIF represents the present value of the shareholders’ interest in the earnings
distributable from the assets allocated to the covered business after sufficient allowance
for the aggregate risks in the business. The VIF consists of the following components:
the present value of future profits (PVFP); adjusted for
the time value of financial options and guarantees (TVFOG);
the frictional costs of required capital (FC); and
the cost of residual non-hedgeable risks (CRNHR).
PVFP
The PVFP is the present value of projected distributable profits to shareholders arising
from the in-force covered business, determined by projecting the post taxation
shareholder cash flows from the in-force covered business and the assets backing the
associated liabilities. The distributable profits also include the release to shareholders of
the amounts from the FFA. For one-year renewable group term business, any future
profits arising from the expected renewals from existing members are included in the
PVFP.
For products with reviewable rates and charges, the projection of future cash flows
assumes that the rates and charges as at the valuation date remain unchanged.
The projection of future distributable profits arising from the covered business is carried
out using best estimate non-economic assumptions and market consistent economic
assumptions.
Distributable profits are determined by reference to liabilities determined in accordance
with the statutory requirements for life insurance companies.
The Company holds ‘global reserves’ calculated outside of its actuarial models as at the
valuation date. Wherever appropriate, the shareholders’ interest in the assets backing
such global reserves is calculated by assuming a suitable release pattern of such
reserves.
TVFOG
The TVFOG reflects the value of the additional cost to shareholders that may arise from
the embedded financial options and guarantees attaching to the covered business. The
intrinsic value of such options and guarantees is reflected in the PVFP.
A stochastic approach is used to determine the TVFOG using methods and assumptions
consistent with the underlying embedded value. The economic assumptions used in
determining the TVFOG ensure that the projected cash flows are valued in line with the
price of similar cash flows that are traded in the capital markets.
7
FC
The VIF includes an allowance for the FC of RC for the covered business. This FC
represents investment management expenses and taxation costs associated with
holding the RC. The investment costs have been reflected as an explicit deduction from
the gross investment return.
CRNHR
The CRNHR is an allowance for risks to shareholder value to the extent that these are
not already allowed for in the TVFOG or the PVFP. In particular, the CRNHR makes
allowance for:
asymmetries in the impact of the risks on shareholder value; and
risks that are not allowed for in the TVFOG or the PVFP (e.g. operational risk).
The CRNHR reflects operational risk, catastrophe mortality/morbidity risk and mass
lapsation risk. The CRNHR has been determined using a cost of capital approach. The
CRNHR is the present value of a notional cost of capital charge levied on the projected
capital in respect of the residual non-hedgeable risks. Allowance has been made for the
benefit of diversification among the non-hedgeable risks, other than operational risk.
3.5 New business and renewals
The VIF includes the value attributable to shareholders considering the expected renewal
premiums on the in-force business, including any foreseeable variations in the level of
renewal premiums, but excludes any value relating to future new business (i.e. the new
business that may be written after the applicable valuation date).
The VNB reflects the additional value to shareholders created through the activity of
writing new business over the stated period ending on the valuation date, and includes
the value from the expected renewal premiums on that new business.
The new business comprises both individual and group policies sold during the reporting
period, including the expected renewal premiums and expected future contractual
alterations to those contracts. It also includes the non-contractual single premium
payments received during the reporting period. New business for one year renewable
group term business and group micro business includes business from new members
that have joined an existing scheme or a new scheme during the financial year, and the
VNB includes the value arising from the renewal premiums expected from new members.
The VNB is calculated in the same way as the VIF, with appropriate allowance for
changes in the ANW during the reporting period.
The VNB is determined as at March 31, 2024 and takes into account acquisition
commissions and acquisition expenses actually incurred in the full year to March 31,
2024. The VNB is computed without consideration of the intrinsic cost or benefit from the
use of interest rate derivatives for hedging interest rate risk.

Components Description
(1) Expected investment income at opening reference rate
on VIF and ANW; and
Expected return on
existing business (2) Expected excess ‘real world’ investment return over the
opening reference rate on VIF and ANW.
3.7 Sensitivities
Sensitivity analyses are carried out for one parameter at a time and do not include
changes in other parameters not explicitly mentioned as part of the sensitivity.
The key assumption changes represented by each of the sensitivities and their impact on
EV and VNB are provided in section 2.
9
4 Assumptions
The projections of future shareholder cash flows expected to emerge from covered in-
force and new business have been determined using best estimate assumptions. These
assumptions (both economic and non-economic) are reviewed annually and have been
updated as appropriate.
4.1 Economic assumptions
Investment returns and discount rates used in the calculation of opening and closing EV
are based on reference rates at March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024 respectively. The
PVFP before TVFOG is calculated assuming that assets earn, before tax and investment
management expenses, the reference rates assumed, and by discounting all cash flows
using the reference rates assumed which are gross of tax and investment management
expenses. The reference rates are derived from the zero coupon yield curve as published
on the Clearing Corporation of India Limited3 website, by adjusting the published yields
so that they derive the market value of the Company’s government bond portfolio. The
reference rates assumed in the calculation of EV are set out below:
Investment returns and discount rates used in the calculation of VNB are based on the
CCIL published yield curves for each month of sale of new business, adjusted so that they
derive the then market value of the Company’s government bond portfolio.
The commission rates under different products are based on the actual commission
payable (if any) to the distributors.

The CCIL zero coupon sovereign rupee yield curve is available at
https://www.ccilindia.com/RiskManagement/SecuritiesSegment/Pages/CCILRupeeYieldCurveDaily.aspx
10
Tax rates
In determining the EV Results, allowance has been made for future taxation costs
expected to be incurred by the Company. This includes both corporate taxes and Goods
and Services Tax (“GST”).
The taxation costs reflected in the EV Results make an allowance for the fact that the
Company is allowed to reduce its taxable income by dividend income earned, subject to
a maximum of the dividend declared and distributed4.

Re: Milliman’s opinion on the Embedded Value results as at 31 March 2024 (“Opinion”)
Introduction
ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company Limited (‘ICICI Prudential’, ‘the Company’) has prepared
embedded value calculations following the methodology and principles set out in the Actuarial Practice
Standard 10 (version 1.02) (“APS10”) issued by the Institute of Actuaries of India. These calculations
consist of the following (together referred to as the “Results”):
Indian Embedded Value (“IEV”) as at 31 March 2024;
the value of one year of new business (“VNB”) for new business sold during the year ending 31
March 2024;
an analysis of the movement of IEV from 31 March 2023 to 31 March 2024; and
various sensitivity results on the IEV as at 31 March 2024 and the VNB for business sold during
the year ending 31 March 2024.
The Results, along with the methodology and assumptions that have been used to prepare the Results,
have been summarised by the Company in the public disclosures (“Disclosures”) that accompany this
Opinion.
Scope of services
Milliman Advisors LLP (‘Milliman’, ‘we’, ‘us’, ‘our’) has been engaged by ICICI Prudential Life Insurance
Company Limited (‘ICICI Prudential’, ‘the Company’) to carry out a review and certification of the
Results. Our scope of work includes the following:
a review of the methodology and assumptions used by the Company in developing the Results
for compliance with the relevant principles set out in APS10;
a review of the Company’s actuarial models (covering the calculation of IEV, VNB, analysis of
movement and sensitivity results) used to develop the Results for a selection of model points
Review of IEV results as at 31 March 2024
covering the more material products comprising the value of in-force business (“VIF”) and VNB;
and
a detailed review of the aggregation templates used by the Company to develop the Results,
which also included a review of the process used to conduct the analysis of movement of IEV
and various sensitivity analyses.
Opinion
Based on the work carried out and subject to the reliances and limitations mentioned below, I am of the
opinion that the Results have been developed in all material respects in accordance with the
methodology and principles set out in APS10. In particular:
the methodology used to develop the Results is reasonable and in line with APS10;
the assumptions (economic and non-economic) used to develop the Results have been
developed materially in line with the requirements of APS10, using the Company’s operating
experience (for non-economic assumptions), and are reasonable;
the Results have been prepared materially in accordance with the methodology and
assumptions described in the Disclosures, and with the accounting information presented in
the financial statements;
the Results have been prepared materially in accordance with the requirements of APS10.
This Opinion has been prepared solely for use by ICICI Prudential for inclusion in the Disclosures for
the year ending 31 March 2024. It should not be relied upon for any other purpose. Milliman does not
intend to create a legal duty to any third party recipient of its work.
We have relied on information supplied by the management and staff of ICICI Prudential. Reliance was
placed on, but not limited to, the general accuracy of all the information provided to us.
We have obtained a management representation letter from ICICI Prudential, stating that, to the best
of ICICI Prudential’s knowledge, the data and information provided to us is accurate and complete and
that there are no material inaccuracies or omissions therein. To the extent that there are material
inaccuracies or omissions in the information received, this Opinion may be rendered invalid.
An actuarial assessment of the components of value of a life insurance company will not necessarily
be consistent with the value of a life insurance company or a portfolio in the open market and should
not be interpreted in that manner.
The Results are based on a series of assumptions as to future operating experience. It should be
recognised that actual experience will differ from these assumptions on account of changes in the
operating and economic environment and natural variations in experience. To the extent that actual
experience is different from the assumptions, the future projected profits from which the Results are
derived will also differ. The Disclosures include various sensitivity results to illustrate how vulnerable
the IEV and VNB results are to changes in assumptions for the key risks. The Results shown are
presented at the valuation dates stated and no warranty is given by Milliman that future experience after
these valuation dates will be in line with the assumptions made.
Milliman is not a tax expert and is not able to provide tax or accounting advice. Accordingly, it is
acknowledged that no reliance will be placed on Milliman, its Partners, or employees with respect to
any tax or accounting issue. The allowance for taxation reflected in the Results is based on the
Company’s interpretation of applicable tax regulations. The Results do not reflect any allowance for
withholding or other taxes (if any) that may apply to the payment of future shareholder dividends or on
remittances out of India.
Review of IEV results as at 31 March 2024
The Results have been determined on a going concern basis, and assume a stable economic, legal
and regulatory environment going forward. Any change in the general operating environment would add
a high degree of uncertainty to the Results.
Unless explicitly stated, the Results do not consider any external (including regulatory) developments
after the valuation date of 31 March 2024.

₹ 8.52 billion in FY2024. Value of New Business (VNB) for FY2024 was ₹ 22.27 billion. With an APE
of ₹ 90.46 billion for the FY2024, VNB margin for FY2024 stood at 24.6%. The decline in VNB margin
is primarily on account of the shift in underlying product mix towards unit linked & par from non-
par business, decline in group term business and higher expense ratio for the current year.
• Embedded Value
The Embedded Value grew by 18.8% year-on-year from ` 356.34 billion at March 31, 2023 to `
423.37 billion at March 31, 2024. The value of inforce business grew by 14.5% from ` 268.52 billion
at March 31, 2023 to ` 307.56 billion at March 31, 2024.
The return on embedded value (RoEV) was 14.1% in FY2024. EV operating profit stood at ` 50.17
billion in FY2024.
• Premium
New business received premium grew by 6.8% year-on-year from ` 169.22 billion in FY2023 to `
180.81 billion in FY2024. The total Annualised Premium Equivalent (APE) grew by 4.7% year-on-
year from ` 86.40 billion in FY2023 to ` 90.46 billion in FY2024. Retail APE grew by 12.0% year-on-
year from ` 28.59 billion in Q4-FY2023 to ` 32.01 billion in Q4-FY2024. The Company has delivered
Retail Weighted Received Premium (RWRP) growth of 11.5% in Q4-FY2024, outperforming both
the overall industry and private life insurers.
• Product mix
The Company offers a wide range of products across various segments such as savings (linked and
non-linked), annuity and protection to meet the specific needs of the customers. The Company has
a well-diversified product mix with FY2024 APE contribution from linked, non-linked, protection,
annuity, and group funds at 43.2%, 25.8%, 16.9%, 10.5% and 3.5% respectively.
Savings business APE including annuity grew by 5.4% year-on-year from ` 71.36 billion in FY2023
to ` 75.21 billion in FY2024. Protection APE stood at ` 15.25 billion in FY2024. Retail protection
business APE registered a growth of 46.6% year-on-year from ` 3.26 billion in FY2023 to ` 4.78
billion in FY2024. Credit life business APE grew by 25.2% year-on-year from ` 4.81 billion in FY2023
to ` 6.02 billion in FY2024.
As a result, retail new business sum assured grew by 38.3% year-on-year from ₹ 1,754.67 billion
in FY2023 to ` 2,427.51 billion in FY2024. The total in-force sum assured grew by 15.6% year-on-
year from ₹ 29.51 trillion at March 31, 2023 to ₹ 34.11 trillion at March 31, 2024.
• Persistency
Persistency ratios have significantly improved across most of the cohorts, reflective of the
Company’s strong focus on improving the quality of business. The 13th month persistency improved
from 86.6% in FY2023 to 89.0% in FY2024. The 49th month persistency ratio improved from 64.2%
in FY2023 to 68.5% in FY2024.
• Cost metrics
In FY2024, the cost to total weighted received premium (TWRP) ratio for the savings business and
the overall cost to TWRP ratio stood at 15.8% and 24.0% respectively. In the current financial year,
the re-design of commission structure pursuant to the flexibility provided in IRDAI (Payment of
Commission) Regulations has led to an increase in commission expenses. Additionally, the
Company has continued its investments towards sustainable future growth.

The Company’s profit before tax increased from ` 8.97 billion in FY2023 to ` 9.23 billion in
FY2024. Profit after tax has increased from ` 8.11 billion in FY2023 to ` 8.52 billion in FY2024.
• Net premium earned (gross premium less reinsurance premium) increased by 8.3% from `
385.60 billion in FY2023 to ` 417.60 billion in FY2024.
• Total investment income increased from ` 106.94 billion in FY2023 to ` 479.31 billion in
FY2024. Investment income comprised of:
• Investment income under unit-linked increased from ` 42.03 billion in FY2023 to ` 382.03
billion in FY2024, primarily due to increase in the market value of the securities held
coupled with increase in profits on sale of investments. Investment income under unit-
linked is directly offset by change in valuation of policyholder liabilities.
• Investment income under other than unit-linked increased from ` 64.91 billion in FY2023
to ` 97.29 billion in FY2024 primarily on account of an increase in profit on sale of
investments and interest income.
• Other income increased from ` 1.53 billion in FY2023 to ` 2.19 billion in FY2024.
• Total expenses (including commission and interest on sub debt) increased by 19.4% from `
72.19 billion in FY2023 to ` 86.16 billion in FY2024.
• Commission expenses increased by 99.7% from ` 18.64 billion in FY2023 to ` 37.22
billion in FY2024. New business commission (including single premium commission and
rewards) increased from ` 14.36 billion in FY2023 to ` 32.57 billion in FY2024 primarily
on account of redesign of commission structure pursuant to the IRDAI (Payment of
Commission) Regulations, 2023 issued on March 31, 2023. Renewal commission
increased from ` 4.28 billion in FY2023 to ` 4.65 billion in FY2024.
• Operating expenses decreased by 8.7% from ` 52.73 billion in FY2023 to ` 48.12 billion
in FY2024. Operating expenses include unit fund expenses (including goods and service
tax on linked charges) amounting to ` 6.95 billion (FY2023: ` 6.71 billion) under the unit-
linked portfolio. The unit fund expenses under the unit-linked portfolio are directly offset
by changes in the valuation of policyholder liabilities. Operating expenses of other than
unit-linked portfolio decreased by 10.5% from ` 46.02 billion in FY2023 to ` 41.17 billion
in FY2024.
• Claims and benefit payouts (net of reinsurance) increased by 29.0% from ` 310.04 billion
in FY2023 to ` 400.06 billion in FY2024, primarily on account of higher surrenders/
withdrawals in the unit-linked portfolio. The claims and benefits under the unit-linked
portfolio are directly offset by changes in the valuation of policyholder liabilities.
• Change in actuarial liability, including funds for future appropriation and fund reserve,
increased from ` 101.03 billion in FY2023 to ` 402.56 billion in FY2024. Change in fund
reserve, which represents the change in liability carried on account of units held by unit-
linked policyholders, increased from ` (68.08) billion in FY2023 to ` 207.84 billion in FY2024.
The increase in change in fund reserves is primarily due to higher investment income in the
unit linked portfolio. Non-unit reserve increased from ` 166.25 billion in FY2023 to ` 198.55
billion in FY2024.

Mr. Anup Bagchi, MD & CEO, ICICI Prudential Life Insurance said, “We have been
strengthening our well-diversified distribution network, designing innovative products
and processes and leveraging data analytics and other technology solutions to simplify
the business. These are aimed at enriching the customer and distributor experience.
We believe simplification is the key to expanding the market and is in line with our
objective to become the most customer and distributor friendly life insurer. We are the
first life insurer in the country to offer an annuity product which provides customers the
option to receive a 100% refund of premiums paid. In addition, we offer a long-term
savings product which provides customers the flexibility to make partial withdrawals
enabling them to meet liquidity requirements without disrupting the savings goal.
Notably, we are also the first life insurer to pay out commissions on the same day to our
distributors. Innovative products and processes underscore the Company’s strategy of
providing the right product to the right customer at the right price and through the right
channel.
Our focus on the distribution front has been to build capacity and enhance efficiency. In
Q4-FY2024, the retail weighted received premium grew by 11.5%, outperforming the
overall industry and private life insurers. The contribution of the agency and direct
business channels to the retail APE stood at 51% for FY2024.
The ICICI Pru Stack, a set of platform capabilities aids sharp customer segmentation and
enables better understanding of customer needs thereby facilitating best effort adjusted
outcomes for our distributors. We have also deployed Machine Learning models which
enable us to introduce appropriate interventions to address customer requirements. Our
13th month persistency for the full year stood at 89.0%, reflecting the customer’s trust in
the Company and our operational efficiency.
Our industry leading claim settlement ratio of 99.2% in FY2024, with an average
turnaround time of 1.3 days for non-investigated claims reflects our commitment to
fulfilling the promise made to our customers and their families.
• Annual Premium Equivalent (APE): APE is a measure of new business written by a life
insurance company. It is computed as the sum of annualised first year premiums on regular
premium policies, and ten percent of single premiums, written by the Company during any
period from new retail and group customers.
• Retail Weighted Received Premium (RWRP): RWRP is a new business measure very similar
to APE for the retail (also referred to as individual) business with the only difference being
that the regular premiums considered here are first year premiums actually received by the
life insurer and not annualised. Secondly, since it is a new business measure for retail
business, it includes only Premium received from retail customers. It is the sum of all retail first
year premiums and ten percent of retail single premiums received in a period.
• Total Weighted Received Premium (TWRP): TWRP is a measure of total premiums from new
and existing retail and group customers received in a period. It is sum of first year and renewal
premiums on regular premium policies and ten percent of single premiums received from both
retail and group customers by Company during the period.
• Persistency: It is the most common parameter for quality of business representing the
percentage of retail policies (where premiums are expected) that continue paying premiums.
Regular and Limited pay persistency in accordance with IRDAI circular on ‘Public Disclosures
by Insurers’ dated September 30, 2021.
• Cost Ratio: Cost ratio is a measure of the cost efficiency of a Company. Expenses are incurred
by the Company on new business as well as renewal premiums. Cost ratio is computed as a
ratio of all expenses incurred in a period comprising commission, operating expenses,
provision for doubtful debts and bad debts written off to total weighted received Premium
(TWRP).
• Value of New Business (VNB) and VNB margin: VNB is used to measure profitability of the
new business written in a period. It is present value of all future profits to shareholders
measured at the time of writing of the new business contract. Future profits are computed on
the basis of long-term assumptions which are reviewed annually. VNB is also referred to as
NBP (new business profit). VNB margin is computed as VNB for the period/APE for the period.
It is similar to profit margin for any other business.
• Embedded Value (EV): EV represents the present value of shareholders’ interests in the
earnings distributable from the assets allocated to the business after sufficient allowance for
the aggregate risks in the business.
ICICI Prudential Life is promoted by ICICI Bank Limited and Prudential Corporation Holdings Limited. The
Company began operations in fiscal 2001 and has consistently been amongst the top private sector life

This report on Embedded Value Results (“EV Results”) as at March 31, 2024 has been
prepared by the Company and the results presented in the report have been reviewed by
Milliman Advisors LLP.
1 Basis of preparation
The Embedded Value (EV) is a measure of the consolidated value of the shareholders’
interest in the life insurance business. The EV Results have been prepared based on the
Indian Embedded Value (IEV) methodology and principles as set out in Actuarial Practice
Standard 101 (version 1.02) (APS10) issued by the Institute of Actuaries of India (IAI). As
APS10 is applicable for the limited purpose of an Initial Public Offering (IPO), compliance
with APS10 is limited to the methodology and principles used to develop the EV Results
presented in this report. The EV methodology is broadly in line with the Market Consistent
Embedded Value2 (MCEV) principles used in Europe.
A detailed description of the EV methodology is provided in section 3.

3 Methodology
3.4 VIF
The VIF represents the present value of the shareholders’ interest in the earnings
distributable from the assets allocated to the covered business after sufficient allowance
for the aggregate risks in the business. The VIF consists of the following components:
the present value of future profits (PVFP); adjusted for
the time value of financial options and guarantees (TVFOG);
the frictional costs of required capital (FC); and
the cost of residual non-hedgeable risks (CRNHR).
PVFP
The PVFP is the present value of projected distributable profits to shareholders arising
from the in-force covered business, determined by projecting the post taxation
shareholder cash flows from the in-force covered business and the assets backing the
associated liabilities. The distributable profits also include the release to shareholders of
the amounts from the FFA. For one-year renewable group term business, any future
profits arising from the expected renewals from existing members are included in the
PVFP.
For products with reviewable rates and charges, the projection of future cash flows
assumes that the rates and charges as at the valuation date remain unchanged.
The projection of future distributable profits arising from the covered business is carried
out using best estimate non-economic assumptions and market consistent economic
assumptions.
Distributable profits are determined by reference to liabilities determined in accordance
with the statutory requirements for life insurance companies.
The Company holds ‘global reserves’ calculated outside of its actuarial models as at the
valuation date. Wherever appropriate, the shareholders’ interest in the assets backing
such global reserves is calculated by assuming a suitable release pattern of such
reserves.
TVFOG
The TVFOG reflects the value of the additional cost to shareholders that may arise from
the embedded financial options and guarantees attaching to the covered business. The
intrinsic value of such options and guarantees is reflected in the PVFP.
A stochastic approach is used to determine the TVFOG using methods and assumptions
consistent with the underlying embedded value. The economic assumptions used in
determining the TVFOG ensure that the projected cash flows are valued in line with the
price of similar cash flows that are traded in the capital markets.
7
FC
The VIF includes an allowance for the FC of RC for the covered business. This FC
represents investment management expenses and taxation costs associated with
holding the RC. The investment costs have been reflected as an explicit deduction from
the gross investment return.
CRNHR
The CRNHR is an allowance for risks to shareholder value to the extent that these are
not already allowed for in the TVFOG or the PVFP. In particular, the CRNHR makes
allowance for:
asymmetries in the impact of the risks on shareholder value; and
risks that are not allowed for in the TVFOG or the PVFP (e.g. operational risk).
The CRNHR reflects operational risk, catastrophe mortality/morbidity risk and mass
lapsation risk. The CRNHR has been determined using a cost of capital approach. The
CRNHR is the present value of a notional cost of capital charge levied on the projected
capital in respect of the residual non-hedgeable risks. Allowance has been made for the
benefit of diversification among the non-hedgeable risks, other than operational risk.
3.5 New business and renewals
The VIF includes the value attributable to shareholders considering the expected renewal
premiums on the in-force business, including any foreseeable variations in the level of
renewal premiums, but excludes any value relating to future new business (i.e. the new
business that may be written after the applicable valuation date).
The VNB reflects the additional value to shareholders created through the activity of
writing new business over the stated period ending on the valuation date, and includes
the value from the expected renewal premiums on that new business.
The new business comprises both individual and group policies sold during the reporting
period, including the expected renewal premiums and expected future contractual
alterations to those contracts. It also includes the non-contractual single premium
payments received during the reporting period. New business for one year renewable
group term business and group micro business includes business from new members
that have joined an existing scheme or a new scheme during the financial year, and the
VNB includes the value arising from the renewal premiums expected from new members.
The VNB is calculated in the same way as the VIF, with appropriate allowance for
changes in the ANW during the reporting period.
The VNB is determined as at March 31, 2024 and takes into account acquisition
commissions and acquisition expenses actually incurred in the full year to March 31,
2024. The VNB is computed without consideration of the intrinsic cost or benefit from the
use of interest rate derivatives for hedging interest rate risk.

Components Description
(1) Expected investment income at opening reference rate
on VIF and ANW; and
Expected return on
existing business (2) Expected excess ‘real world’ investment return over the
opening reference rate on VIF and ANW.
3.7 Sensitivities
Sensitivity analyses are carried out for one parameter at a time and do not include
changes in other parameters not explicitly mentioned as part of the sensitivity.
The key assumption changes represented by each of the sensitivities and their impact on
EV and VNB are provided in section 2.

4 Assumptions
The projections of future shareholder cash flows expected to emerge from covered in-
force and new business have been determined using best estimate assumptions. These
assumptions (both economic and non-economic) are reviewed annually and have been
updated as appropriate.
4.1 Economic assumptions
Investment returns and discount rates used in the calculation of opening and closing EV
are based on reference rates at March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024 respectively. The
PVFP before TVFOG is calculated assuming that assets earn, before tax and investment
management expenses, the reference rates assumed, and by discounting all cash flows
using the reference rates assumed which are gross of tax and investment management
expenses. The reference rates are derived from the zero coupon yield curve as published
on the Clearing Corporation of India Limited3 website, by adjusting the published yields
so that they derive the market value of the Company’s government bond portfolio. The
reference rates assumed in the calculation of EV are set out below:
Investment returns and discount rates used in the calculation of VNB are based on the
CCIL published yield curves for each month of sale of new business, adjusted so that they
derive the then market value of the Company’s government bond portfolio.
The commission rates under different products are based on the actual commission
payable (if any) to the distributors.

The CCIL zero coupon sovereign rupee yield curve is available at
https://www.ccilindia.com/RiskManagement/SecuritiesSegment/Pages/CCILRupeeYieldCurveDaily.aspx
10
Tax rates
In determining the EV Results, allowance has been made for future taxation costs
expected to be incurred by the Company. This includes both corporate taxes and Goods
and Services Tax (“GST”).
The taxation costs reflected in the EV Results make an allowance for the fact that the
Company is allowed to reduce its taxable income by dividend income earned, subject to
a maximum of the dividend declared and distributed4.

Re: Milliman’s opinion on the Embedded Value results as at 31 March 2024 (“Opinion”)
Introduction
ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company Limited (‘ICICI Prudential’, ‘the Company’) has prepared
embedded value calculations following the methodology and principles set out in the Actuarial Practice
Standard 10 (version 1.02) (“APS10”) issued by the Institute of Actuaries of India. These calculations
consist of the following (together referred to as the “Results”):
Indian Embedded Value (“IEV”) as at 31 March 2024;
the value of one year of new business (“VNB”) for new business sold during the year ending 31
March 2024;
an analysis of the movement of IEV from 31 March 2023 to 31 March 2024; and
various sensitivity results on the IEV as at 31 March 2024 and the VNB for business sold during
the year ending 31 March 2024.
The Results, along with the methodology and assumptions that have been used to prepare the Results,
have been summarised by the Company in the public disclosures (“Disclosures”) that accompany this
Opinion.
Scope of services
Milliman Advisors LLP (‘Milliman’, ‘we’, ‘us’, ‘our’) has been engaged by ICICI Prudential Life Insurance
Company Limited (‘ICICI Prudential’, ‘the Company’) to carry out a review and certification of the
Results. Our scope of work includes the following:
a review of the methodology and assumptions used by the Company in developing the Results
for compliance with the relevant principles set out in APS10;
a review of the Company’s actuarial models (covering the calculation of IEV, VNB, analysis of
movement and sensitivity results) used to develop the Results for a selection of model points
Review of IEV results as at 31 March 2024
covering the more material products comprising the value of in-force business (“VIF”) and VNB;
and
a detailed review of the aggregation templates used by the Company to develop the Results,
which also included a review of the process used to conduct the analysis of movement of IEV
and various sensitivity analyses.
Opinion
Based on the work carried out and subject to the reliances and limitations mentioned below, I am of the
opinion that the Results have been developed in all material respects in accordance with the
methodology and principles set out in APS10. In particular:
the methodology used to develop the Results is reasonable and in line with APS10;
the assumptions (economic and non-economic) used to develop the Results have been
developed materially in line with the requirements of APS10, using the Company’s operating
experience (for non-economic assumptions), and are reasonable;
the Results have been prepared materially in accordance with the methodology and
assumptions described in the Disclosures, and with the accounting information presented in
the financial statements;
the Results have been prepared materially in accordance with the requirements of APS10.
This Opinion has been prepared solely for use by ICICI Prudential for inclusion in the Disclosures for
the year ending 31 March 2024. It should not be relied upon for any other purpose. Milliman does not
intend to create a legal duty to any third party recipient of its work.
We have relied on information supplied by the management and staff of ICICI Prudential. Reliance was
placed on, but not limited to, the general accuracy of all the information provided to us.
We have obtained a management representation letter from ICICI Prudential, stating that, to the best
of ICICI Prudential’s knowledge, the data and information provided to us is accurate and complete and
that there are no material inaccuracies or omissions therein. To the extent that there are material
inaccuracies or omissions in the information received, this Opinion may be rendered invalid.
An actuarial assessment of the components of value of a life insurance company will not necessarily
be consistent with the value of a life insurance company or a portfolio in the open market and should
not be interpreted in that manner.
The Results are based on a series of assumptions as to future operating experience. It should be
recognised that actual experience will differ from these assumptions on account of changes in the
operating and economic environment and natural variations in experience. To the extent that actual
experience is different from the assumptions, the future projected profits from which the Results are
derived will also differ. The Disclosures include various sensitivity results to illustrate how vulnerable
the IEV and VNB results are to changes in assumptions for the key risks. The Results shown are
presented at the valuation dates stated and no warranty is given by Milliman that future experience after
these valuation dates will be in line with the assumptions made.
Milliman is not a tax expert and is not able to provide tax or accounting advice. Accordingly, it is
acknowledged that no reliance will be placed on Milliman, its Partners, or employees with respect to
any tax or accounting issue. The allowance for taxation reflected in the Results is based on the
Company’s interpretation of applicable tax regulations. The Results do not reflect any allowance for
withholding or other taxes (if any) that may apply to the payment of future shareholder dividends or on
remittances out of India.
Review of IEV results as at 31 March 2024
The Results have been determined on a going concern basis, and assume a stable economic, legal
and regulatory environment going forward. Any change in the general operating environment would add
a high degree of uncertainty to the Results.
Unless explicitly stated, the Results do not consider any external (including regulatory) developments
after the valuation date of 31 March 2024.

₹ 8.52 billion in FY2024. Value of New Business (VNB) for FY2024 was ₹ 22.27 billion. With an APE
of ₹ 90.46 billion for the FY2024, VNB margin for FY2024 stood at 24.6%. The decline in VNB margin
is primarily on account of the shift in underlying product mix towards unit linked & par from non-
par business, decline in group term business and higher expense ratio for the current year.
• Embedded Value
The Embedded Value grew by 18.8% year-on-year from ` 356.34 billion at March 31, 2023 to `
423.37 billion at March 31, 2024. The value of inforce business grew by 14.5% from ` 268.52 billion
at March 31, 2023 to ` 307.56 billion at March 31, 2024.
The return on embedded value (RoEV) was 14.1% in FY2024. EV operating profit stood at ` 50.17
billion in FY2024.
• Premium
New business received premium grew by 6.8% year-on-year from ` 169.22 billion in FY2023 to `
180.81 billion in FY2024. The total Annualised Premium Equivalent (APE) grew by 4.7% year-on-
year from ` 86.40 billion in FY2023 to ` 90.46 billion in FY2024. Retail APE grew by 12.0% year-on-
year from ` 28.59 billion in Q4-FY2023 to ` 32.01 billion in Q4-FY2024. The Company has delivered
Retail Weighted Received Premium (RWRP) growth of 11.5% in Q4-FY2024, outperforming both
the overall industry and private life insurers.
• Product mix
The Company offers a wide range of products across various segments such as savings (linked and
non-linked), annuity and protection to meet the specific needs of the customers. The Company has
a well-diversified product mix with FY2024 APE contribution from linked, non-linked, protection,
annuity, and group funds at 43.2%, 25.8%, 16.9%, 10.5% and 3.5% respectively.
Savings business APE including annuity grew by 5.4% year-on-year from ` 71.36 billion in FY2023
to ` 75.21 billion in FY2024. Protection APE stood at ` 15.25 billion in FY2024. Retail protection
business APE registered a growth of 46.6% year-on-year from ` 3.26 billion in FY2023 to ` 4.78
billion in FY2024. Credit life business APE grew by 25.2% year-on-year from ` 4.81 billion in FY2023
to ` 6.02 billion in FY2024.
As a result, retail new business sum assured grew by 38.3% year-on-year from ₹ 1,754.67 billion
in FY2023 to ` 2,427.51 billion in FY2024. The total in-force sum assured grew by 15.6% year-on-
year from ₹ 29.51 trillion at March 31, 2023 to ₹ 34.11 trillion at March 31, 2024.
• Persistency
Persistency ratios have significantly improved across most of the cohorts, reflective of the
Company’s strong focus on improving the quality of business. The 13th month persistency improved
from 86.6% in FY2023 to 89.0% in FY2024. The 49th month persistency ratio improved from 64.2%
in FY2023 to 68.5% in FY2024.
• Cost metrics
In FY2024, the cost to total weighted received premium (TWRP) ratio for the savings business and
the overall cost to TWRP ratio stood at 15.8% and 24.0% respectively. In the current financial year,
the re-design of commission structure pursuant to the flexibility provided in IRDAI (Payment of
Commission) Regulations has led to an increase in commission expenses. Additionally, the
Company has continued its investments towards sustainable future growth.

The Company’s profit before tax increased from ` 8.97 billion in FY2023 to ` 9.23 billion in
FY2024. Profit after tax has increased from ` 8.11 billion in FY2023 to ` 8.52 billion in FY2024.
• Net premium earned (gross premium less reinsurance premium) increased by 8.3% from `
385.60 billion in FY2023 to ` 417.60 billion in FY2024.
• Total investment income increased from ` 106.94 billion in FY2023 to ` 479.31 billion in
FY2024. Investment income comprised of:
• Investment income under unit-linked increased from ` 42.03 billion in FY2023 to ` 382.03
billion in FY2024, primarily due to increase in the market value of the securities held
coupled with increase in profits on sale of investments. Investment income under unit-
linked is directly offset by change in valuation of policyholder liabilities.
• Investment income under other than unit-linked increased from ` 64.91 billion in FY2023
to ` 97.29 billion in FY2024 primarily on account of an increase in profit on sale of
investments and interest income.
• Other income increased from ` 1.53 billion in FY2023 to ` 2.19 billion in FY2024.
• Total expenses (including commission and interest on sub debt) increased by 19.4% from `

rewards) increased from ` 14.36 billion in FY2023 to ` 32.57 billion in FY2024 primarily
on account of redesign of commission structure pursuant to the IRDAI (Payment of
Commission) Regulations, 2023 issued on March 31, 2023. Renewal commission
increased from ` 4.28 billion in FY2023 to ` 4.65 billion in FY2024.
• Operating expenses decreased by 8.7% from ` 52.73 billion in FY2023 to ` 48.12 billion
in FY2024. Operating expenses include unit fund expenses (including goods and service
tax on linked charges) amounting to ` 6.95 billion (FY2023: ` 6.71 billion) under the unit-
linked portfolio. The unit fund expenses under the unit-linked portfolio are directly offset
by changes in the valuation of policyholder liabilities. Operating expenses of other than
unit-linked portfolio decreased by 10.5% from ` 46.02 billion in FY2023 to ` 41.17 billion
in FY2024.
• Claims and benefit payouts (net of reinsurance) increased by 29.0% from ` 310.04 billion
in FY2023 to ` 400.06 billion in FY2024, primarily on account of higher surrenders/
withdrawals in the unit-linked portfolio. The claims and benefits under the unit-linked
portfolio are directly offset by changes in the valuation of policyholder liabilities.
• Change in actuarial liability, including funds for future appropriation and fund reserve,
increased from ` 101.03 billion in FY2023 to ` 402.56 billion in FY2024. Change in fund
reserve, which represents the change in liability carried on account of units held by unit-
linked policyholders, increased from ` (68.08) billion in FY2023 to ` 207.84 billion in FY2024.
The increase in change in fund reserves is primarily due to higher investment income in the
unit linked portfolio. Non-unit reserve increased from ` 166.25 billion in FY2023 to ` 198.55
billion in FY2024.

Mr. Anup Bagchi, MD & CEO, ICICI Prudential Life Insurance said, “We have been
strengthening our well-diversified distribution network, designing innovative products
and processes and leveraging data analytics and other technology solutions to simplify
the business. These are aimed at enriching the customer and distributor experience.
We believe simplification is the key to expanding the market and is in line with our
objective to become the most customer and distributor friendly life insurer. We are the
first life insurer in the country to offer an annuity product which provides customers the
option to receive a 100% refund of premiums paid. In addition, we offer a long-term
savings product which provides customers the flexibility to make partial withdrawals
enabling them to meet liquidity requirements without disrupting the savings goal.
Notably, we are also the first life insurer to pay out commissions on the same day to our
distributors. Innovative products and processes underscore the Company’s strategy of
providing the right product to the right customer at the right price and through the right
channel.
Our focus on the distribution front has been to build capacity and enhance efficiency. In
Q4-FY2024, the retail weighted received premium grew by 11.5%, outperforming the
overall industry and private life insurers. The contribution of the agency and direct
business channels to the retail APE stood at 51% for FY2024.
The ICICI Pru Stack, a set of platform capabilities aids sharp customer segmentation and
enables better understanding of customer needs thereby facilitating best effort adjusted
outcomes for our distributors. We have also deployed Machine Learning models which
enable us to introduce appropriate interventions to address customer requirements. Our
13th month persistency for the full year stood at 89.0%, reflecting the customer’s trust in
the Company and our operational efficiency.
Our industry leading claim settlement ratio of 99.2% in FY2024, with an average
turnaround time of 1.3 days for non-investigated claims reflects our commitment to
fulfilling the promise made to our customers and their families.
• Annual Premium Equivalent (APE): APE is a measure of new business written by a life
insurance company. It is computed as the sum of annualised first year premiums on regular
premium policies, and ten percent of single premiums, written by the Company during any
period from new retail and group customers.
• Retail Weighted Received Premium (RWRP): RWRP is a new business measure very similar
to APE for the retail (also referred to as individual) business with the only difference being
that the regular premiums considered here are first year premiums actually received by the
life insurer and not annualised. Secondly, since it is a new business measure for retail
business, it includes only Premium received from retail customers. It is the sum of all retail first
year premiums and ten percent of retail single premiums received in a period.
• Total Weighted Received Premium (TWRP): TWRP is a measure of total premiums from new
and existing retail and group customers received in a period. It is sum of first year and renewal
premiums on regular premium policies and ten percent of single premiums received from both
retail and group customers by Company during the period.
• Persistency: It is the most common parameter for quality of business representing the
percentage of retail policies (where premiums are expected) that continue paying premiums.
Regular and Limited pay persistency in accordance with IRDAI circular on ‘Public Disclosures
by Insurers’ dated September 30, 2021.
• Cost Ratio: Cost ratio is a measure of the cost efficiency of a Company. Expenses are incurred
by the Company on new business as well as renewal premiums. Cost ratio is computed as a
ratio of all expenses incurred in a period comprising commission, operating expenses,
provision for doubtful debts and bad debts written off to total weighted received Premium
(TWRP).
• Value of New Business (VNB) and VNB margin: VNB is used to measure profitability of the
new business written in a period. It is present value of all future profits to shareholders
measured at the time of writing of the new business contract. Future profits are computed on
the basis of long-term assumptions which are reviewed annually. VNB is also referred to as
NBP (new business profit). VNB margin is computed as VNB for the period/APE for the period.
It is similar to profit margin for any other business.
• Embedded Value (EV): EV represents the present value of shareholders’ interests in the
earnings distributable from the assets allocated to the business after sufficient allowance for
the aggregate risks in the business.
