Hello friend,
An actuary is an expert who deals with the financial impact of risk and uncertainty. The job involves a lot of number of crunching, so one needs to have a strong bent for maths and statistics. traditionally actuaries have worked in the insurance, pensions and investment industries but now they are needed everywhere- from project management to health care.
India needs thousands of actuaries but there aren't enough qualified people.
The IAI has a total of 15 papers; clearing even five can help you get a job.
A qualified actuary works as acturial manager, valuation expert, assesor, risk manager in insurance firms, pension funds, investment and government bodies.

Institutes offering the course

University of Mumbai
Kurukshetra University
