What is Private Car Insurance

it provides a One-year third-party premium and a one-year own-damage (OD) premium

Private Car Insurance provides coverage for vehicles against various risks, including accidental damage, theft, and third-party liabilities. It offers financial protection to car owners in case of unfortunate incidents, helping them manage repair costs, legal expenses, and damages to third parties. Having Private Car Insurance is mandatory in India as per the Motor Vehicles Act, ensuring responsible driving and safeguarding both car owners and third parties from potential financial burdens.


⛦ Example Scenario:
In the case of Rahul’s car accident in Shimla, where his car was washed away in a flood, his Comprehensive Private Car Insurance policy proved to be immensely helpful. The incident was immediately reported to the insurance company, and a surveyor was assigned to assess the damage. As the policy covered damages from natural disasters, the insurance claim was accepted. The car was towed to an authorized garage for repairs, and the insurance company settled the repair bills directly, relieving Rahul from financial burden. The incident highlighted the significance of having a reliable car insurance policy to protect against unforeseen events and ensure peace of mind for Indian car owners.
