New Zonal Manager appointed in Southern Zone of Life Insurance Corporation

K. Murlidar, a seasoned professional with over 35 years of service at the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), has recently been appointed as the Zonal Manager of LIC's South Zone, overseeing branches in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Puducherry.

Murlidar began his career at LIC in 1990 as an Assistant Administrative Officer. Throughout his tenure, he has held diverse leadership roles across the country. His roles at LIC have included responsibilities in Marketing, Personnel, and Corporate Communications.

During his service, Murlidar served as the Senior Divisional Manager for both Rajahmundry and Visakhapatnam Divisions of LIC. He also held the position of Regional Manager in the South Central Zone at Hyderabad. His last known role before becoming Zonal Manager was at the LIC central office.

Unfortunately, specific details about Murlidar's career progression in LIC, including the key roles and responsibilities he held before being appointed as Zonal Manager, are not readily available in public search results. However, it's common for LIC officers to ascend through roles managing branches, divisions, and then zones, handling agency development, sales targets, and operational management.

In a significant development, the tech overhaul for the Income Tax Department, known as PAN 2.0, is being led by a private company, LTIMindtree. The project, estimated to cost ₹800 crores, is a significant undertaking for the Income Tax Department.

LTIMindtree is a company involved in the technology sector and has been selected to lead the technology overhaul for the Income Tax Department. The details of Murlidar's involvement in this project are not yet clear, but his extensive experience in management and operations could prove valuable in this endeavour.

Before his current position, Murlidar was the Executive Director of Digital Marketing Operations at LIC, Mumbai. His most recent role at LIC, prior to his appointment as Zonal Manager, was not specified in the available search results.

As the Zonal Manager of LIC's South Zone, Murlidar will be responsible for 261 Branches across Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Puducherry. His leadership and experience will undoubtedly play a crucial role in the continued success of LIC in these regions.

The Income Tax Department's technology update, PAN 2.0, is currently underway, and its successful implementation could revolutionise the department's operations. The project's estimated budget of ₹800 crores underscores the importance placed on this update by the government.

As the project progresses, more details about Murlidar's role in leading the tech overhaul for the Income Tax Department and his past roles at LIC may become available. For now, the focus remains on the significant changes that PAN 2.0 promises to bring to the Income Tax Department.

  1. Murlidar's experience in various roles at LIC, such as Marketing, Personnel, Corporate Communications, management, and operations, could potentially be leveraged further in his new role as Zonal Manager.
  2. Before his current role at LIC, Murlidar served as the Executive Director of Digital Marketing Operations in LIC, Mumbai, marking another significant milestone in his long and illustrious career with the corporation.
  3. Murlidar's role in the technology overhaul for the Income Tax Department, if confirmed, could offer a unique blend of finance, business, and career opportunities, given his extensive experience in diverse sectors and his recent appointment as a Zonal Manager in LIC.
