Tata AIG General Insurance Company (TAGIC) was awarded the Company of the Year Award 2011 for Health Insurance and Best Product Innovation Award 2011 in the general insurance category for the year 2010 – 2011.


TAGIC was awarded the Company of the Year Award 2011 for Health Insurance segment during the Indian Insurance Awards. This award was to recognize the company that stood out amongst its peers in terms of Revenue growth, Profitability, Innovation & Customer service.


Mr.Gaurav Garg, MD of Tata AIG General Insurance Company said “The award reinforces our perception as a strong health insurance company as evidenced also by the HT MaRs Customer Satisfaction Survey (results published in March, 2011) which ranked us as No.1 in customer service satisfaction and No.2 in claims settlement satisfaction. This perception is likely to be buttressed by our imminent entry into the mediclaim space as we await IRDA’s approval for the Mediprime product. It is a testament to our wide and strong product range of benefit based secondary medical insurance products that have not only delivered a profitable business line but also awards from the industry and a high degree of customer satisfaction. Our dominating presence in the Overseas Travel Insurance which is perceived as an Overseas Mediclaim also contributes in no small bit to our position.”
