'''General Insurance Corporation of India Limited''' abbreviated as '''GIC Re''' is an Indian [[Government of India|government owned]] [[reinsurance]] company. It is under the [[ownership]] of [[Ministry of Finance (India)|Ministry of Finance]] , [[Government of India]]. It was incorporated on 22 November 1972 under Companies Act, 1956. GIC Re has its registered office and headquarters in [[Mumbai]]. It was the sole [[reinsurance]] company in the Indian insurance market until the insurance market was open to foreign [[reinsurance]] players by late 2016 including companies from [[Germany]], [[Switzerland]] and [[France]]. GIC Re's shares are listed on BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Ltd.

== Making of GIC ==

The business of [[general insurance]] was nationalised through The General Insurance (Emergency) Provisions Ordinance promulgated on 13 May 1971 and thereby the business being carried on by 107 entities was consolidated and restructured into four companies namely The New India Assurance Company Limited, Bombay, United India Fire & General Insurance Company Limited, Madras, Oriental Fire & General Insurance Company Limited, Bombay and National Insurance Company Limited, Calcutta (New India Assurance Co. Ltd., United India Insurance Co. Ltd., The Oriental Insurance Co. Ltd., and National Insurance Company Co. Ltd. respectively).

The General Insurance Business (Nationalisation) Act, 1972 (GIBNA) that followed paved the way for the Government to take over ownership of these businesses. Accordingly, GIC was incorporated on 22 November 1972 as a private company under Companies Act, 1956<ref>{{cite web |title=Companies Act, 1956 |url=https://www.mca.gov.in/Ministry/pdf/Companies_Act_1956_13jun2011.pdf |website=MCA.GOV}}</ref> in Bombay and received its Certificate for Commencement of Business on 1 January 1973.

GIC’s stated role was to function as the holding company of the four companies, and superintend, control and carry on the business of General insurance on behalf of the Government of India.

The first Chairman of GIC was A Rajagopalan, an Actuary and an officer of the Indian Administrative Service (IAS). M K Venkateshan and S K Desai were appointed the two Managing Directors of GIC.

On 1 January 1973, GIC was notified as the reinsurer under Section 101 A of Insurance Act, 1938,<ref>{{cite web |title=Insurance Act 1938 |url=https://www.irdai.gov.in/ADMINCMS/cms/frmGeneral_Layout.aspx?page=PageNo107&flag=1 |website=IRDAI}}</ref> making it the Indian reinsurer for receiving obligatory cessions, a role hitherto played by two companies called India Reinsurance Corporation Limited (India Re) and Indian Guarantee and General Insurance Company Limited (Indian Guarantee).

GIC was reborn as a pure reinsurance company in November, 2000. It was re-notified as 'Indian reinsurer' under Insurance Act, 1938 and continued to receive obligatory cessions from direct insurers. It continued writing foreign inward reinsurance business purely on its own account from 1 April 2002.

With effect from 21 March 2003, the four subsidiaries were delinked from GIC by an administrative order from the Ministry of Finance and became directly owned by the Government.

Retaining its name, the company rebranded itself as "GIC Re" to denote its new identity.

== Operations ==
All direct general insurance companies of India are required by law to cede a mandatory percentage of every policy value to GIC Re subject to some limitations and exceptions. This percentage of cession is decided by the IRDAI<ref>https://www.irdai.gov.in/ADMINCMS/cms/frmGeneral_Layout.aspx?page=PageNo4047&flag=1</ref> on an annual basis.

In April 2020, GIC Re’s Operations in Brazil got status upgrade from 'occasional reinsurer' to 'admitted reinsurer' by the Brazilian Superintendence of Private Insurance (SUSEP).<ref>{{cite news |title=GIC Re Brazil |url=https://www.asiainsurancepost.com/non-life/gic-res-improves-its-brazilian-status-occasional-reinsurer-admitted-reinsurer |work=Asia Insurance Post|date=27 April 2020}}</ref> It was published in the Brazilian Gazette on 14 April 2020.

== Motto & Logo ==

On 26 August 1976, Chairman A Rajagopalan in GIC’s Board Minutes signed and approved the motto of GIC Re, Ãpatkãle Rakshisyãmi. It a Sanskrit phrase that translates into, "I shall protect you in times of distress." In 1980s, GIC’s logo was modified and the motto was incorporated in Devanagari Script.

== Suraksha ==

At the time of its creation, GIC was headquartered in the fourth floor of Industrial Assurance Building owned by LIC.

GIC acquired Jeevan Kendra that belonged to LIC and housed its Bombay Zonal Office. It was extensively renovated retaining its curved front and then gilded with panels of reflective glass. It has a circular atrium running the height of the building.
