Forward-looking Statements
The report contains statements that relate to the Company’s future operations and performance. These statements can be identified by usage of words such
as ‘believes’, ‘estimates’, ‘anticipates’, ‘expects’, ‘intends’, ‘may’, ‘will’, ‘plans’, ‘outlook’ and other words of similar meaning in connection with a discussion
of future operating or financial performance.
These forward-looking statements are dependent on assumptions, data or methods that may be inaccurate or imprecise and hence are not guarantees of
future operating, financial and other results. They constitute our current expectations based on reasonable assumptions. The Company’s actual results could
materially differ from those projected in any forward-looking statements due to various future events, risks, and uncertainties some of which are beyond our
control. The Company does not assume any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future
events or otherwise.

At ICICI Lombard, we aim to grow our business and sustain long-term value for
our customers, channel partners, employees, shareholders, community and all
other stakeholders. Aligned with this overarching purpose, our strategic intent is
to strengthen our overall position in the non-life insurance space and grow our

Materiality
Materiality is one of the underlying concepts of integrated thinking and reporting and a
differentiating factor compared to financial reports. Under materiality, we periodically
evaluate our material issues. Material matters are those that are most important to the
business and its key stakeholders, and which can affect our ability to create value over
the short, medium and long term. In order to continue creating a positive impact on the
society, materiality serves as a compass to guide us through our journey and helps to
establish our priorities.
The first step in determining material filtered on the basis of their needs, Our ability to create value is impacted

Risk is inherent to the insurance business. Our risk management and internal
control systems are designed to ensure that these risks are managed effectively and
efficiently, aligned with our overarching objective of creating long-term value for all
our stakeholders.
Post becoming the first company in India to achieve the ISO 31000:2018 Risk Management certification last year,
ICICI Lombard successfully renewed the prestigious globally recognised certification in Risk Management for FY2020.

1 Background
ICICI Lombard General Insurance Company Limited (‘the Company’) was incorporated on October 30, 2000.
The Company obtained Regulatory approval to undertake General Insurance business on August 3, 2001 from
the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (‘IRDAI’) and holds a valid certificate of registration.
The equity shares of the Company are listed on BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange from September
27, 2017.
The management evaluates, all recently issued or revised accounting pronouncements, on an ongoing basis.
The Financial Statements are presented in Indian rupees rounded off to the nearest thousand.
3 Use of estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as
of the balance sheet date, reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the period ended and disclosure
of contingent liabilities as of the balance sheet date. The estimates and assumptions used in these financial
statements are based upon management’s evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances as on the date of
the financial statements. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Any revision to accounting estimates
is recognised prospectively in current and future periods.
Schedules
forming part of the financial statements
premium and re-insurance accepted is recognised as income over the period of risk or the contract period
based on 1/365 method, whichever is appropriate on a gross basis. Any subsequent revisions to premium as
and when they occur are recognised over the remaining period of risk or contract period, as applicable.
In case of long term motor insurance policies for new cars and new two wheelers sold on or after
September 1, 2018, premium received (net of Goods & Service Tax) for third party liability coverage is
recognized equally over the policy period at the commencement of risk on 1/n basis where ‘n’ denotes the
term of the policy in years and premium received for Own damage coverage is recognized as per the annual
premium allocation determined at the inception of the policy in accordance with the product parameters filed
with IRDAI, on receipt of complete information. Reinstatement premium is recorded as and when such
premiums are recovered. Premium allocated for the year is recognised as income earned based on 1/365
method, on a gross basis. Reinstatement premium is allocated on the same basis as the original premium over
the balance term of the policy. Any subsequent revisions to premium as and when they occur are recognised
on the same basis as the original premium, over the balance term of the policy.
Adjustments to premium income arising on cancellation of policies are recognised in the period in which it is
cancelled. Adjustments to premium income for corrections to area covered under Crop insurance are recognized
in the period in which the information is confirmed by the concerned Government/nodal agency.
Profit commission under reinsurance treaties, wherever applicable, is recognised as income in the year of final
determination of profits as confirmed by reinsurers and combined with commission on reinsurance ceded.
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive dividend is established. Dividend income in respect of
listed equity shares is recognised on ex-dividend date.
Realised gain/loss on securities, which is the difference between the sale consideration and the carrying value
in the books of the Company, is recognised on the trade date. In determining the realised gain/loss, cost of
securities is arrived at on ‘Weighted average cost’ basis. Further, in case of listed equity shares and mutual fund
units, the profit or loss on sale also includes the accumulated changes in the fair value previously recognised in
the fair value change account.
Sale consideration for the purpose of realised gain/loss is net of brokerage and taxes, if any, and excludes
interest received on sale.
In case of long term motor insurance policies for new cars and new two wheelers sold on or after
September 1, 2018, Reinsurance premium is recognized on the insurance premium allocated for the year
simultaneously along with the recognition of the insurance premium in accordance with the reinsurance
arrangements with the reinsurers. Any subsequent revision to premium ceded is recognised in the period of
such revision. Adjustment to reinsurance premium arising on cancellation of policies is recognised in the period
in which they are cancelled. Adjustments to reinsurance premium for corrections to area covered under Crop
insurance are recognized simultaneously along with related premium income.
4.5 Claims
Claims incurred comprise claims paid, estimated liability for outstanding claims made following a loss occurrence
reported and estimated liability for claims Incurred But Not Reported (‘IBNR’) and claims Incurred But Not
Enough Reported (‘IBNER’). Further, claims incurred also include specific claim settlement costs such as survey/
legal fees and other directly attributable costs.
Claims (net of amounts receivable from reinsurers/coinsurers) are recognised on the date of intimation based on
internal management estimates or on estimates from surveyors/insured in the respective revenue account(s).
Estimated liability for outstanding claims at balance sheet date is recorded net of claims recoverable from/
payable to co-insurers/reinsurers and salvage to the extent there is certainty of realisation. Salvaged stock is
recognised at estimated net realisable value based on independent valuer’s report.
Estimated liability for outstanding claims is determined by the management on the basis of ultimate amounts
likely to be paid on each claim based on the past experience and in cases where claim payment period exceeds
four years based on actuarial valuation. These estimates are progressively revalidated on availability of further
information.
IBNR reserves are provisions for claims that may have been incurred during the accounting period but have not
been reported or claimed. The IBNR provision also includes provision, for claims that have been incurred but
are not enough reported (IBNER). The provision for IBNR and IBNER is based on actuarial estimate duly certified
by the Appointed Actuary of the Company. The actuarial estimate is derived in accordance with relevant IRDAI
regulations and Guidance Note GN 21 issued by the Institute of Actuaries of India.
Schedules
forming part of the financial statements
In case of long term motor insurance policies for new cars and new two wheelers sold on or after
September 1, 2018 commission is expensed at the applicable rates on the premium allocated for the year.
4.8 Investments
Investments are recorded at cost on trade date and include brokerage, transfer charges, stamps etc., if any, and
exclude interest accrued up to the date of purchase.
(A) Classification
- Investments maturing within twelve months from balance sheet date and investments made with the
specific intention to dispose off within twelve months are classified as ‘short term investments’.
- Investments other than ‘short term investments’ are classified as ‘long term investments’.
Investments that are earmarked, are allocated separately to policyholder’s or shareholder’s, as applicable;
balance investments are segregated at Shareholder’s level and Policyholder’s level notionally based on
policyholder’s funds and shareholder’s funds at the end of period as prescribed by IRDAI.
(B) Valuation
Investments are valued as follows:
Debt securities and Non–convertible preference shares
All debt securities including government securities, non-convertible and redeemable preference shares and
Additional Tier 1 perpetual bonds are considered as ‘held to maturity’ and accordingly stated at amortised
cost determined after amortisation of premium or accretion of discount on a constant yield basis over the
holding period/maturity.
Depreciation on assets purchased/disposed off during the year is provided on pro rata basis with reference to
the date of additions/deductions.
Depreciation on fixed assets is provided on straight-line method using the rates based on the economic useful
life of assets as estimated by the management/limits specified in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013
as below:
Nature of Fixed Assets Management Useful life as per the limits prescribed in
Estimate of Useful Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013
Life in years in Years
Building 60.00 60.00
Information Technology equipment–Servers & 3.00 6.00
Networks
Information Technology equipment–Others 3.00 3.00
Furniture & Fittings 6.67 10.00
Office Equipment 10.00 5.00
Vehicles 5.00 8.00
In case of Office Equipment, the management estimate of the useful life is higher and for Information Technology
equipment (Servers & Networks), Furniture & Fitting and Vehicles, the management estimate of the useful life is
lower than that prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. This is based on the consistent practices
followed, past experience and is duly supported by technical advice.
Depreciation on Furniture & Fittings and Office Equipment in leased premises is recognised on a straight-line
basis over the primary period of lease or useful life as determined by management, whichever is lower.
All assets including intangibles individually costing up to ` 5,000 are fully depreciated/amortised in the year in
which they are acquired.
Schedules
forming part of the financial statements
Intangibles Assets
Intangible assets comprising computer software are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation. Computer
software including improvements are amortised over a period of 4 years, being the management’s estimate of
the useful life of such intangibles.
Impairment of Assets
The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that any asset may be
impaired. If any such indication exists, the carrying value of such assets is reduced to its recoverable amount
and the impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss account. If at the balance sheet date there is any
indication that a previously assessed impairment loss no longer exists, then such loss is reversed and the asset
is restated to that extent.
Gratuity
Gratuity, which is a defined benefit scheme, is provided on the basis of actuarial valuation including actuarial
gains/losses at balance sheet date and is recognised in the revenue account(s) and profit and loss account. The
actuarial valuation has been carried out using the Projected Unit Credit Method.
Accrued leave
Compensated absences are provided based on actuarial valuation including actuarial gains/losses at balance
sheet date and are recognised in the revenue account(s) and profit and loss account. The actuarial valuation
has been carried out using the Projected Accrued Benefit Method which is same as the Projected Unit Credit
Method in respect of past service.
The premium or discount arising at the inception of a forward exchange contract, not intended for trading
or speculation purpose, is amortised as expense or income as the case may be over the life of the contract.
Exchange difference on account of change in rates of underlying currency at the expiry of the contract period
is recognised in the revenue account(s) and profit and loss account. Any profit or loss arising on cancellation or
roll-over of such a forward exchange contract is recognised as income or expense for the contract period.
4.14 Borrowings
Borrowing costs are charged to the Profit and Loss account in the period in which they are incurred.
4.15 Grants
The Company recognises grants only when there is reasonable assurance that the conditions attached to them
shall be complied with, and the grants will be received.
Grants related to assets are presented in the balance sheet by showing the grant as a deduction from the gross
value of the assets concerned in arriving at their book value. Grants related to revenue are recognised over
the period necessary to match them with the related costs, for which they are intended to compensate, on a
systematic basis. Such grants are deducted in reporting the related expense.
Unspent balances of grants are carried forward to the subsequent years under the head “Current Liabilities” for
adjustment against expenses in those years.
A grant that becomes refundable is treated as an extraordinary item. The amount of such refundable grant
related to revenue is applied first against any unamortised deferred credit remaining in respect of the grant. To
the extent that the amount refundable exceeds any such deferred credit, or where no deferred credit exists, the
amount is charged immediately to the profit and loss account.
The amount refundable related to a specific fixed asset is recorded by increasing the book value of the asset.
Where the book value of the asset is increased, depreciation on the revised book value is provided.
4.16 Taxation
Current tax
The Company provides for income tax on the basis of taxable income for the current accounting period in
accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
In accordance with the recommendations contained in guidance note issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India, Minimum Alternate Tax (‘MAT’) credit is recognised as an asset to the extent there is
convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax in future by way of a credit to the profit and
loss account and shown as MAT credit entitlement.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for the future tax consequences attributable to timing
differences between the accounting income as per the Company’s financial statements and the taxable income
for the year.
Schedules
forming part of the financial statements
Deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognised using the
tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that the assets can be
realised in future, however, where there is unabsorbed depreciation or carried forward loss under taxation laws,
deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and appropriately adjusted to reflect the amount
that is reasonably/virtually certain to be realised.
Number of equity shares used in computing diluted earnings per share comprises the weighted average number
of shares considered for basic earnings per share and also weighted average number equity shares which
would have been issued on conversion of all dilutive potential shares. In computing diluted earnings per share
only potential equity shares that are dilutive are considered.
Contingent losses arising from claims other than insurance claims, litigation, assessment, fines, penalties, etc.
are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
A disclosure for a contingent liability other than those under policies is made when there is a possible obligation
or a present obligation that may, but probably will not require an outflow of resources.
Show Cause Notices issued by various Government Authorities are not considered as Obligation. When the
demand notices are raised against such show cause notices and are disputed by the Company, these are
classified as disputed obligations.
Contingent asset are neither recognised nor disclosed in the financial statements.

The estimated fair value is computed on the basis of Black- Scholes option for Performance ESOP
(2018) and Special ESOP (2018) issued during the year ended March 31, 2019. No options are vested
during the year ended March 31, 2019 and ` 37,081 thousand (previous year: ` 359,347 thousand) was
realised by exercise of options.
The company follows intrinsic value method and hence there was no charge in the Revenue Accounts
and Profit and Loss Account. Had the Company followed the fair value method for valuing its options
for the year ended, the charge to the Revenue Accounts and Profit and Loss Account would have
been higher by ` 176,244 thousand (Previous year ` NIL) and profit after tax would have been lower by
` 115,686 thousand (Previous year ` NIL). Consequently, the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per
share would have been ` 22.85 and ` 22.81 respectively.
The weighted average price of options exercised during the year ended March 31, 2019 is ` 102.5
(previous year: ` 130.1).
The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding at the end of the year is as
follows:
Pursuant to IRDAI regulation of Asset, Liabilities, and Solvency margin of General Insurance Business
Regulations 2016 (IRDAI/Reg/7/119/2016 dated April 7, 2016); claim reserves are determined as the
aggregate amount of Outstanding Claim Reserve and Incurred but Not Reported (IBNR) claim reserve
for 28 stipulated lines of business.
Pursuant to Actuarial Practice (APS) 33 issued by Institute of Actuaries of India (IAI) which is
mandatory and effective from December 1, 2017, the peer review of statutory valuation of liabilities for
