Introduction GST is having an important impact on the insurance industry as well as policyholders. Typically, policyholder's pay service tax on the risk element of the premium component whereas the investment element of the policies is usually out of the service tax scope. With the implementation of the GST, insurance policies including life, health and motor have become costlier as taxes will go up by at least 3 % or 300 basis points. Primarily, there are three major kinds of life insurance products Term insurance plans, Ulips and Endowments (including money back). The applicability of service tax (in the previous format) on their premium is not similar in all three of them. The premium paid in life insurance policies represents two portions risk coverage and savings. The GST is only on the risk portion of the premium and not on savings portion. 8 February 2018 Copyrights Reserved 2018 8 of 18
Life insurance & Health Insurance There are 3 types of life insurance: Term insurance plans- basic life insurance policies ULIPs- insurance and investment under a single integrated plan Endowments (including money-back)- life insurance policies that pay a lump sum on maturity/death or a fixed sum every month (sort of like a pension) 8 February 2018 Copyrights Reserved 2018 9 of 18
Different Plans 1.Term Plan Term plans purely offer death benefit and are termed as pure risk protection plans. In such plans sum assured is paid to the nominee, if insured dies during the term of the policy. The premium component of a term plan comprises the majority of the risk element to provide insured a risk cover throughout the tenure of the policy. In previous Regime, service tax of 15 % is imposed on the premium cost of the term plans. As per rates declared GST rates are 18%. This means the premium will get costlier by 3 %. 2. Endowment Plan Endowment plans or traditional insurance savings plans offer both death and maturity benefits, whichever occur first. In Previous regime, endowment plans attract a service tax of 3.75 % on the premium in the first year of the policy and will rise to 4.5 % in the first year under the new tax regime. previously, 1.875 % of the service tax is levied on endowment plan's premium for the second year, which is expected to rise to 2.25 % from the second year onwards after the implementation of GST. 8 February 2018 Copyrights Reserved 2018 10 of 18
3.ULIP Unit Linked Insurance Plans (ULIPs) also offer dual benefit of insurance and investment. Previously, service tax of 3.5 % is levied on protection part of ULIPs in the first year and 1.75 % from second year onwards. This would go up to 4.5 % in the first year and 2.25 % from second year onwards. Similar will be the impact on general insurance such as car, health and other non-life policies i.e. service tax (replaced by GST) will increase by 3 percent of the premium amount. 4.Health Insurance Plan In previous tax regime, health plan premium attracts a service tax of 15 % on its premium cost. With the introduction and implementation of the GST, the cost of purchasing the health insurance will become expensive as it will attract a tax of about 18 % on premium. 8 February 2018 Copyrights Reserved 2018 11 of 18

ULIP Plan The second most important thing to notice is regarding ULIP Plans. the GST is not applicable on the whole premium you pay. Instead, it is applicable only on the premium which is exclusive of the investable amount. GST Applicability on ULIP Plans Gross Premium Rs. 1000 Investment Portion Rs. 800 Applicable charges like policy admin charges, fund management charges or mortality charges GST @ 18% on Applicable charges only Rs. 200 Rs. 36 8 February 2018 Copyrights Reserved 2018 13 of 18
Conclusion Both existing and new policyholders face an increase in the premium amounts due to increase in rates. For insurers, the increase in taxes will be passed on to the consumers. The insurers expect higher compliance and administrative costs due to the increased number of GST returns and also effect of taxability of inter-branch services. 8 February 2018 Copyrights Reserved 2018 14 of 18
General insurance includes fire insurance, marine insurance, car insurance, theft insurance etc. The GST rate is 18% on general insurance. For policyholders, the general insurance premium will rise as tax has increased from 15 to 18%. Corporate policyholders, who have taken general insurance, can enjoy input tax credit on the GST paid on their policies (it was available to them even under service tax). Life and health insurees will not have input tax credit as it is not available for life and health insurances (as they are for personal purposes). Even corporate policyholders with group life and health insurance for their employees will not enjoy any input tax credit. 8 February 2018 Copyrights Reserved 2018 15 of 18
