🤔 What Is Go Digit?

Digit is a digital-first general insurer offering motor, travel, health, and home insurance. Think of it as the Swiggy of insurance — easy to use, mobile-first, and trying hard to be cool.

Founded in 2017, it’s backed by Fairfax (Prem Watsa), and endorsed by Virat Kohli. Because nothing says “low premiums” like cover drives.

đź’¸ Financials

  • FY23 Gross Premium: ₹5,900 crore
  • Loss after Tax: ₹9.7 crore
  • 3-year CAGR: 50%+ in premium collection

âś… Pros

  • Digital-first = low cost, high scale
  • Strong brand recall (Virat FTW)
  • Insurance industry in India = massive untapped market

❌ Cons

  • Not profitable yet (though close)
  • Claims ratio still high
  • Competition: LIC, HDFC Ergo, ICICI Lombard, Policybazaar, etc.

đź§  Verdict

“Cool UI, strong backers, Virat’s smile — now just waiting for profits.”

A high-growth, high-risk play. If you’re okay with some insurance drama, this could be your pick.
