LIC has booked a profit of Rs 20,000 crore by selling equities this year so far, against Rs 9,000 crore last fiscal. Mehrotra says, it was a "completely commercial decision" and the FY13 profit is the highest for the state-owned insurer in the last seven-eight years.
LIC has invested Rs 30,000 crore this financial year so far, most of it in public offers of state-run companies as it had to bail out the government's share shale programme that was threatened by lukewarm investor response in the first half of the year.
