"LIC is looking to have 'boundary conditions' on its investments that would limit its exposure to scrips," said the source. The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India also bars insurers from having more than 15% of their investment funds in equity and debt of companies owned by one corporate or a promoter group.
"It is now planning to come up with sub-limits for such investments to keep a check on its exposure," the source said.
