HDFC Life Q3 expectations

The profit is seen rising 21% year-on-year (YoY) to Rs 443 crore, according to estimates from Emkay. Meanwhile, Motilal Oswal expects the profit growth to be 19% YoY during the reporting period.
There are no other estimates on the company's third quarter profit and net premium income. However, the value of new business (VNB) growth is likely to be anywhere between 19-21% YoY during the quarter. Most estimates predict a decline in VNB margins on a YoY basis.
Investors will watch out for product mix, impact of change in surrender value regulations on the margins and any guidance on sales through bank channels.
