YES Securities' research report on ICICI Prudential Life
Group term continues to pick up the slack for now, even as management guides for a bounce-back in retail protection in FY23: Overall protection APE rose 32.8% YoY in 4QFY22 to Rs 4.57bn and occupied a share of 17.5% in total APE. Protection APE growth was driven by group term business. In 4QFY22, share of the newly launched ROP product was 17% in retail protection APE. Management expects a revival in retail protection business as under-writing norms have now been calibrated and some of the supply-side issues (reluctance of customers to get medically tested) would also get addressed.
Outlook
We maintain ‘Buy’ rating on IPRU with a revised price target of Rs 787: We value IPRU at 3.1x FY23 P/EV for an FY23E/24E RoEV profile of 17.3/17.8%.
