Below is a brief information about the claim process for different insurance products which will help you in case of an emergency.

Motor insurance claim:

Claim process for your car or bike will depend on the type of claim you raise.

For own damage claims -

Inform the insurance company immediately of the claim and provide your policy number and other details like car registration number and driving license number.

The company would inform you about the nearest networked workshop. The vehicle should be taken to that workshop for repairs if you prefer a cashless claim settlement. For reimbursement claims, the vehicle can be repaired at any workshop.

Once the vehicle is at the preferred workshop, the insurance company’s surveyor would visit the workshop to assess the damages. The surveyor would then prepare a claim estimate and submit it to the insurance company.

The policyholder would also have to submit a claim form and copies of the RC book, driving license and other documents as required by the insurance company.

The insurance company approves the claim after which repairs begin.

Once the repairs are completed, the company settles the claim directly with the garage and the policyholder can take the delivery of the vehicle.

In case of reimbursement claims, the policyholder gets the vehicle repaired at any garage. Then the original bills of the repair are to be submitted to the insurance company along with the claim form, RC book, driving license and other documents. The insurance company analyses the bills and the documents and approves the claim. Once the claim is approved, the repair costs are reimbursed by the insurance company.

In case of accidental damage, loss or theft of the vehicle, a police FIR needs to be filed and submitted to the insurance company as a supporting document at the time of claim. If the vehicle is not located by the police, a non-traceable report will be issued and the insurance company will pay an amount equal to the IDV of the insured vehicle.

For third party claims -

File an FIR with the police.

The claim is taken to the motor accidents tribunal. Once the tribunal passes a judgement, the insurance company pays the claim to the third party.
