Caveat: The above ratio represents only the Incurred Claims of Motor TP Insurance portfolio as a percentage of TP Premium accounted during the Financial years. Motor TP portfolio is long tail in nature. TP Liability Claim pertaining to TP policies issued during a Financial year gets reported 4-5 years after the expiry of the Financial Year.

Note: Lag in claims reporting and subsequent payment of claims in a year is characteristic of Motor TP Policies, hence the above chart may be viewed with such understanding.
