100% FDI allowed in insurance sector under automatic route, inflows for LIC capped at 20%
The central government has announced 100% Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in insurance companies via the automatic route, enabling full foreign ownership. This move, aligning with the Sabka Bima Sabki Raksha Act, 2025, aims to boost foreign participation, with IRDAI approval required. LIC remains an exception with a 20% FDI limit.
