About Ankolekar & Co
Ankolekar & Co is a Mumbai actuarial consultancy led by its founding consulting actuary. The practice works on employee benefits, insurance, microinsurance and pensions, and has been active in Institute of Actuaries of India seminars on insurance and retirement topics.
The firm is small. IAI seminar programmes from 2023 and 2024 name a lead consultant on staff in addition to the principal, which shows it employs actuarial professionals beyond its founder. Its founding year, headcount and office address are not published.
For a student, the practice is distinctive for its microinsurance and pensions work alongside routine employee-benefit valuations such as gratuity and leave valuations under AS 15 and Ind AS 19. It suits students who want broad exposure in a small team rather than a structured graduate programme.
What the actuarial team does
- Gratuity and leave encashment valuations under AS 15 and Ind AS 19
- Pension and retirement scheme advice
- Microinsurance product and pricing work
- Insurance consulting assignments
- Research and seminar work on pensions and insurance
