How much should you read into these two numbers?
A claim settlement ratio is the share of claims an insurer paid out of the claims it decided, paid plus rejected, counted by number of claims rather than by rupees. So it tells you how often Magma General pays, not how much of each bill it pays. The complaint figure counts complaints against the insurer for every 10,000 claims, averaged over 2022-25.
The settlement ratio is the weaker of the two. Across health insurers it sits within a narrow band, so it rarely separates a good insurer from a poor one. Complaints separate them: across the 30 health insurers on our table they run from 4.2 to 173.6 per 10,000 claims, a spread of roughly 41 times. Magma General sits at 19.5.
Neither number describes a policy. A settlement ratio counts claims across the insurer’s whole health book, every plan and every customer together, and says nothing about how a specific plan treats a specific illness. What decides your claim is the wording you bought: the waiting periods, the room-rent rule, the sub-limits and what you disclosed when you applied.

What is the Magma General claim settlement ratio?
Magma General has a claim settlement ratio of 89.9%, a weighted average of the last three financial years from IRDAI published data, latest available as of March 2026. That ranks it 22nd of 31 health insurers. On its own the figure says less than most buyers assume, because the settlement ratio barely separates insurers in this market.
How many complaints does Magma General receive?
19.5 complaints per 10,000 claims, which ranks Magma General 15th of 30 health insurers on complaints. This is the figure that separates insurers: across the market it runs from 4.2 to 173.6, a spread of roughly 41 times, while settlement ratios sit within a few points of each other.
Is a 89.9% claim settlement ratio good?
No. 89.9% is below the 93% bar we use for health insurers, which 18 of the 31 on our table clear. A lower ratio means the insurer turned down a larger share of the claims it decided. It still cannot tell you whether your own claim will be paid: the policy wording decides that, from waiting periods to sub-limits and room rent.
Should I choose an insurer on the claim settlement ratio alone?
No. Neither number on this page describes a policy, and the settlement ratio in particular is too tightly clustered across insurers to separate them. Read the wording of the specific plan, and weigh the complaint figure more heavily than the settlement ratio, because it is the one that varies.
