What Is Car Insurance? Car Insurance is a vehicle insurance policy to protect yourself from financial losses arising from unforeseen risks such as accidents, thefts or third party liabilities. It is also known as auto or motor insurance. There are two types of motor car insurance in India, third party insurance which protects you from the claim arising out of the accidents involving third parties, and other is comprehensive cover which provides third party cover as well as Own Damage (OD) cover. Own Damage cover protects you from financial losses against accidental damages to your vehicle.

As per the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, motor third party insurance is mandatory in India. You can avail four wheeler insurance to obtain cover for you (insured party), your car (insured vehicle) and third parties (other vehicles and their property). You can renew or buy car insurance for both new as well as pre-owned cars. The validity of a car insurance policy for old cars is for a period of one year, whereas for a new car the owner has to mandatory buy 3 years compulsory Third Party with an option of 1 year Own Damage or a 3 years Own Damage.

Or if the car is on EMI can you pay up the financing Bank?

The best way to prepare yourself from such losses/ damages is through having a car insurance policy that provides cover to you, your car and the third party.

Stand Alone Damage This type of Car insurance cover would protect you from losses suffered due to damages caused to your vehicle by an accident, manmade damages, theft or natural calamities.

Why do I need motor Add-ons?

Our standard car insurance attempts to provide protection for all possible situations a driver is likely to face, however despite this it is a policy that covers risks common to most vehicles. Further, there are certain circumstances that are specific to certain regions, vehicle type, level of use etc.

Add on covers provide protection against such specific risks. All you need to do is key-in your details into our quick quote section and you shall receive customized recommendations for add-ons in accordance with parameters like vehicle age, make, model, No-claims-bonus, location among various other factors. Given are certain specific situations where add-ons have benefitted vehicle owners greatly.

Consider the following:

a) Heavy rainfall and flooding

If you happen to live in an area that faces heavy rainfall and is prone to flooding, the chances are that your vehicle will be exposed to probability of water seeping into its engine. And if you even turn on the ignition key of your car while it’s parked in a water-logged area it can cause massive engine damage.

Further, you must know that such damage will be considered as consequential loss and will in all likelihood not be covered by your regular four wheeler insurance policy. A Hydrostatic lock cover addresses precisely this issue. It covers expenses pertaining to engine.

b) A single claim can bring your ‘No-claims-bonus’(NCB) to zero

If you happen to be a cautious driver who has accumulated a fair amount of NCB then imagine your plight if a single claim caused a teenage driver or close relative brings down your No claims bonus to zero. Unbelievably, car insurance offers a solution to this concern in form of ‘No Claims Bonus Protector’ Cover. This cover protects your NCB for 2 admissible claims during the course of your policy period.

c) Bumper to Bumper Driving (Better protection through Depreciation Cover)

Most persons travelling to work and back during office peak hours in a metro or mini metro would know of the jam packed bumper to bumper driving experience each commuter faces. Situations of fender benders are extremely common. Under a regular insurance policy generally only 50% of repair expenses for plastic, fibre and metal parts are reimbursed. Even for other parts the claim amount is subject to depreciation.

This means that you shall receive an amount, which is lower than the actual repair expense. In several cases the amount deducted on account of depreciation could be as high as 50%. Depreciation cover is a solution to this problem. Not only does depreciation cover make up for the depreciated amount it also provides complete repair expense reimbursement for plastic, fibre, glass and metal parts.

The shared examples are just a few but there are several risks that are specific to location, vehicle age, driver type, level of use among others. Add-on covers let you customize your existing car insurance to suit your needs in accordance with risks that are specific to your situation.

Cover

What is Depreciation Cover?

Why Should One Have A Comprehensive Car Insurance Policy?

It is recommended to have a comprehensive car insurance policy over the basic third party insurance. As the name suggests a comprehensive vehicle insurance plan offers fuller coverage and more wide-ranging benefits. If you take a comprehensive car insurance policy, by paying a slightly higher premium you will be covered for third party liability as well as own damage to your vehicle. A comprehensive car insurance cover includes: Any damage caused to the insured’s car due to floods, earthquakes, landslides, cyclones and other natural calamities

Loss or damage caused by man-made disasters such as theft, fire, terrorism, riots and strikes

Any losses and damages caused by road accidents

Personal accident cover to the owner–driver in case of injury or death from a road accident

Third party legal liability (mandatory) Compared to the above, a third party vehicle insurance policy will only cover expenses towards damage or injury to the third party and surrounding property that has been caused by the insured’s vehicle. Therefore by opting for a comprehensive car insurance policy you get much more peace of mind and financial security.
