The size of the Indian life insurance industry was Rs 6.2 lakh crore on a total-premium basis in fiscal 2021, up from Rs 5.7 lakh crore in fiscal 2020.<\/p>\n<p>        The government has appointed 10 merchant bankers, including Kotak Mahindra Capital, Goldman Sachs (India) Securities Pvt Ltd, Citigroup Global Markets India Pvt Ltd and Nomura Financial Advisory and Securities (India) Pvt Ltd, to manage the mega IPO of the country&#8217;s largest insurer.<\/p>\n<p>        The government is also mulling allowing foreign investors to pick up stake in LIC. As per Sebi rules, foreign portfolio investors (FPI) are permitted to buy shares in a public offer. FDI policy would have to be tweaked for FII\/FPI investment in this IPO, as LIC is a corporation and not an insurance company.<\/p>\n<p>        The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs had in July last year cleared the proposal for LIC&#8217;s IPO.
