These are not part of the New India network map now, except for Guyana. New India re-entered this market through an office under its subsidiary company New India Assurance (Trinidad & Tobago) on April 30, 2015.
In 1982, the majority ownership and control of New India Assurance (T&T) was vested in the Caribbean region. In 1998, New India, Mumbai, again became a majority shareholder with an 83 per cent stake.
Having started with its first office on Queen Street in Port of Spain in 1946, New India Trinidad recently constructed its own Head Office building in Trinidad. It was inaugurated
on January 23, 2013 and will serve as the Regional Head Office for the Caribbean. At present, the company has a strong presence in the Caribbean. It operates in Trinidad & Tobago, St. Lucia, Dominica, Guyana, St. Maarten and Anguilla. In addition, New India, Mumbai, has Branches in Aruba and Curacao.
While it was the vision of the company’s founders that brought New India to the Caribbean, its ensuing growth and success in the region came about through the able leadership of the senior executives who headed it over the years.
They are D S Cardmaster, M R Rayakar, A B Daultzada, P S Rao, R G Vaidya, R D Samarth, S S Tulsi, G V Rao, V R Rajan Nambiar, Kumar Bakhru, G Srinivasan (the present Chairman cum Managing Director of New India, Mumbai), P J Joseph and the recently retired Managing Director of New India, Trinidad & Tobago, Aswathanarayana.
The company has the distinction of contributing liberally to the talent pool of the industry in the Caribbean.
