On November 6, 2025, shares of Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) dipped 0.74% to ₹899 ahead of the company's second-quarter earnings announcement. According to brokerage firm Kotak Institutional Equities, LIC's Annual Premium Equivalent (APE) for the quarter is expected to stand at ₹16,380 crore, marking a modest 0.5% year-on-year decline but a strong 29% rise compared to the previous quarter.
The brokerage noted that the slight annual drop in LIC's APE aligns with the insurer's muted performance in the initial two months of the quarter, as reflected in its monthly updates. However, on a sequential basis, LIC is anticipated to post solid growth, driven by seasonal demand for insurance products and increased momentum in the non-par and group segments.
Despite the slight dip in the share price, the brokerage's forecast suggests that LIC's Q2 results could signal a rebound in the company's performance, potentially offering investors a positive outlook for the insurer's future prospects.
