Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) of India is the biggest micro insurance provider in the country.

NGOs experience in MI business, Source of awareness, Area of operation and particulars regarding performance were collected. This study also focuses on the details about the existing, discontinued and surrendered policies and various problems faced by NGOs in distributing MI policies. The data was collected through personal interview using questionnaire. The analysis was made using simple percentages and Kendall co-efficient of concordance.
