INTRODUCTION Insurance in India has its history dating back till 1818, when Oriental Life Insurance Company was started by Europeans in Kolkata to cater to the needs of European community. Pre-independent era in India saw discrimination among the life of foreigners and Indians with higher premiums being charged for the latter. It was only in the year 1870, Bombay Mutual Life Assurance Society, the first Indian insurance company covered Indian lives at normal rates (1). At the dawn of the twentieth century, and insurance companies started mushrooming up. In the year 1912, the Life Insurance Companies Act, and the Provident Fund Act were passed to regulate the insurance business. The Life Insurance Companies Act, 1912 made it necessary that the premium rate tables and periodical valuations of companies should be certified by an actuary. However, the disparage still existed as discrimination between Indian and foreign companies. The oldest existing insurance company in India is National Insurance Company Ltd, which was founded in 1906 and is doing business even today. The Insurance industry earlier consisted of only two state insurers: Life Insurers i.e. Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) and General Insurers i.e. General Insurance Corporation of India (GIC). GIC had four subsidiary companies. With effect from December 2000, these subsidiaries have been de-linked from parent company and made as independent insurance companies: Oriental Insurance Company Limited, New India Assurance Company Limited, National Insurance Company Limited and United India Insurance Company Limited. There are 13 private players in Life Insurance area and 9 Private Players in Non-life Insurance area (2-3). Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA) Act, 1999: Till 1999, there were not any private insurance companies in Indian insurance sector. The Govt. of India then introduced the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority Act in 1999, thereby de-regulating the insurance sector and allowing private companies into the insurance. Further, foreign investment was also allowed and capped at 26% holding in the Indian insurance companies. In recent years many private players entered in the Insurance sector of India. Companies with equal strength are competing in the Indian insurance market. Currently, in India only 2 million people (0.2 % of total population of 1 billion), are covered under Mediclaim, whereas in developed nations like USA about 75 % of the total population are covered under some insurance scheme. With more and more private players in the sector this scenario may change at a rapid pace. However, the studies on factor affecting in Surat are scanty. Generally, it is assumed that other cities factors affecting to buy life insurance policy will affect to Surat city s population. However, it is hypothesized that factors affecting to buy life insurance policy could be different from other cities purchase decision (4-5). RESEARCH OBJECTIVES The objective of this research work is to find out: - Factors affecting to buying decision of Life insurance Policy in Surat city of Gujarat, India. Rising Research Journal Publications 6
2 - Correlation between Demographical Factors and Life Insurance Policy Investors in Surat City. - Preference to buy of LIC Life Insurance Policy or of Private Players Life Policy. HYPOTHESIS OF THE STUDY Type of Insurance Players and Life Insurance Policy buying Decision. Demographic Factors (Like Age, Gender, Family Income, Occupation and Education Level) and Life Insurance Policy buying Decision. Personal Factors (like Life Style, Policy User Status, Loyalty Status, Attitude towards Life Insurance) and Life Insurance Policy buying Decision. Product Factors (Like Awareness of Policy, Type of Policy, Premium of Policy, No. of Agents and Branches in Surat City) and Life Insurance Policy buying Decision. - There is significance relationship among the all factors.

Customer satisfaction was measured in terms of two variables indicating experience from insurer and experience from the provider. METHODOLOGY We have used statistical technique to find the factors affecting to buy Life insurance policy Decision for Surat Population. This method has been used to take care of the sample selection problem. The results did not suggest sample selection bias in this case. Therefore, random selection model was used in this study. We used demographic variables as independent and personal factor & product variable as dependent variable to take decision.as discussed above we have identified thirteen factors, which effect life insurance purchase decision. Respondents were asked to rate these variables on the scale of one to three where one indicates highest significant importance. These variables have been used as interval variable. TESTING OF HYPOTHESIS, DATA ANALYSIS AND RESULTS 1. H0; There is significant Relationship between Type of Insurance Players and Life Insurance Policy buying Decision. Out of 60 respondents, 53 respondents prefer LIC Policy other than Private Insurance Players Policy in Surat City. Since the difference is 1.81, which is less than 1.96 at 5% level of significance, hence the hypothesis is accepted. So it is interpreted that type of insurance player is important factor for buying decision of Life Insurance Policy in Surat City. 2. H0; There is significant Relationship between Demographic Factors (Like Age, Gender, Family Income, Occupation and Education Level) and Life Insurance Policy buying Decision. For of 60 respondents from the survey, average age was found years and standard deviation was of 9.68 years. Can we assume that population average age is 35 years for buying Life insurance policy in Surat city? Since the S.E is 1.25 and difference is which is less than 2.58 S.E at 1% significant level, hence hypothesis is accepted and interpreted that there is relationship between demographic factors and buying decision of Life insurance policy. 3. In a sample of 60 life insurance investors, 39 are male and out of that 32 are saying that income has effect on life insurance policy buying decision. From female respondents, 16 respondents have accepted that effect. By using Chi-square Test, it will be stated that whether there is any significance difference between male and female for stating the effect of income on life insurance policy buying decision for Surat City Population (Table 1-3). Table value of Chi-Square at 1 degree of freedom at 1% level is and calculated value is 0.293, which is less than table value.
