PolicyX.com – How It All Started?
Talking about the inception story, entrepreneurship was Naval Goel’s dream from the beginning. While working with AIG in New York, he noticed a gap in the country within the insurance sector. According to him, at that time most of the Indian population was still going the traditional way to purchase insurance.
Because of the lack of technology in the insurance domain where only a few companies were covering the same, Naval could strongly sense a huge potential in this area and ample space for innovation. Then, he decided to seize the opportunity and established PolicyX.com in 2013. And that’s how PolicyX.com was born.
And believe it or not, thorough research and experience in the same domain were enough to validate the idea. Today, it is one of the fastest-growing IRDA approved insurance comparison portals. PolicyX.com helps customers in comparing different insurance policy quotes and products like life, car, health, travel, investment, pension, and business among others.

PolicyX.com – Name, Tagline & Logo
The goal is simple: Not a single grievance, not a single claim rejection, not a single surprise element at the time of claim. PolicyX.com will struggle hard to get there no matter what. This is what the PolicyX.com brand stands for. It wants to be the best so that consumers can trust them when it comes to insurance purchases.
The logo of PolicyX.com has 3 colors and a person with a ring around him. The ring signifies protection and colors signify vibrancy and happiness.
PolicyX.com – Startup Challenges
The most prominent problem with the insurance industry in India is that it is a highly complex product and most of the products sold in the market are not beneficial for the customers. Most policies are sold for either tax benefits or investments and intermediaries have been pushing products where margins are higher.
PolicyX.com offers much-needed transparency in the system by giving the power of choosing the right policy to the customers. They can also compare features and benefits at a click of a button and purchase through an online seamless process.
