Venkatachalam H, President and Chief Distribution Officer, Tata AIA Life Insurance, added, “It's truly a great feeling to be part of the Top 5 insurers in the world for the highest number of MDRT qualified advisors and to have ranked #1 in India. This has been possible due to the dedication and commitment of our Advisors across the Agency network and our proprietary channel. With such a strong team, our customers can be assured of receiving the best insurance advice backed by innovative solutions that fulfil their aspirations towards their loved ones.”
