The first 150 years of the British Rule in India were characterized by turbulent
economic conditions. The first war of independence in 1857, the World Wars 1 and 2 (1914-
1918 and 1939-45) and India's national struggle for freedom in between had adverse effect on
the economy. In addition to this the period of world wide economic crisis in between the two
World Wars termed as the period of Great Depression led to the high rate of bankruptcies and
liquidation of most Life Insurance Companies in India that existed during that time. These
occurrences led to loss of faith in insurance of the people of India.
The Life Insurance Companies Act and Provident Fund Act both passed in 1912 provided
regulatory mechanisms to the Life Insurance Industry in India for the first time. After
undergoing several other such reforms in the following decades and nearly a decade after
India achieved independence, the Parliament of India passed the Life Insurance of India Act
on 19 th June, 1956 following which the Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) of India on 1 st
September of the same year. The Company began its operations with 5 Zonal Offices , 33
Divisional Offices and 212 Branch Offices .

Existing as a towering insurance company for over 50 years, LIC has acquired almost
monopoly power in the solicitation and sale of life insurance policies in India. In addition to
the summary regarding the present stature provided at the beginning, LIC has extended its
activities in 12 countries other than India with the objective of catering to the insurance needs
of Non Resident Indians.
The enforcement of New Economic Reforms in 1991 coupled with the formation of
Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority Act (IRDA) of 2000 (which started issuing
licenses to private life insurers ) has diluted the monopolistic attitude commanded by LIC.
The only insurance company belonging to the public sector now has to compete with several
other corporate entities of its kind which often are heavyweight Indian as well as
Multinational Life Insurance Brands in themselves.
With its ever-expanding operations, LIC has set an example for other Public Sector
Undertakings of India to follow.

The !# c!! ! $ ! was incorporated on July 1,
1948 by the Government of India as a tool to overcome the scarcity of long-term finance
plans in the industrial sector. IFCI is the first Development Financial Institution in India.
During the period of independence in 1947, the capital market scenario was
horrendous. In spite of the major requirement of capital market in India, there were no
providers for it. To add to the woes, there were no merchant bankers and underwriting firms.
The commercial banks were not well-accoutered to render long-term financial plans in the
industrial sector. Indian finance market were drowning into a well of failure when the
Government of India decided to launch the IFCI with the aim to provide long-term financial
plans to all the sectors of Indian industry. The Development Financial Institution in India
(DFI) was incorporated with the aim to make access to inexpensive funds easy enough for the
industrial sector through Central Bank's Statutory Liquidity Ratio or SLR. This Statutory
Liquidity Ratio enabled the corporate borrowers to take loans and overtures at a much
concessional rates.
During the early 1990s, the Government of India realized that the financial system of
the country needs more flexibility. The Government also felt that The Industrial Finance
Corporation of India Limited needed to access directly to the capital market for any kinds of
funds or other financial issues. At this point of time, that is in 1993, the Government of India
took the decision of transferring IFCI from Statutory Liquidity Ratio to a company that would
come under the Indian Companies Act, 1956.
The main focus of The Industrial Finance Corporation was to provide long-term
financial benefits to various sectors in Indian industry and it has fulfilled it quite efficiently.
IFCI has also been quite subservient in implementing the number of things that the
Government of India planned up to ensure financial benefits into services. IFCI carried out all
the responsibilities regarding Government's industrial policy initiatives till the establishment
of ICICI in 1956 and IDBI in 1964.
The Industrial Finance Corporation of India had made a wide range of contributions
in various sectors in Indian industry. Some of the noteworthy contributions of IFCI include
improvement of Indian industry, export promotion, import permutation, development in
business, pollution control measures, energy preservation, and rendering direct and indirect
employment. There are a number of industrial sectors that have been massively benefited
from The Industrial Finance Corporation of India Limited. They are as follows:
