This aligns with Tata AIA Life Insurance philosophy of ‘protection’ that secures people’s future. Extending the same philosophy to the environment, is this new initiative, that promises to protect the planet’s collective future.
Saurabh Agrawal, Chairman – Tata AIA Life Insurance said,“This initiative by Tata AIA Life perfectly aligns with Tata Group’s ethos and objectives of achieving participative, sustainable and ecology-strengthening development. The group has always believed in creating value for the stakeholders along with creating value for the shareholders.
With mounting concerns over fast-degrading quality of air and waning green cover, we feel we must play a proactive role in reversing the effects of deforestation.
