Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is IDV in car insurance and how is it calculated?

IDV (Insured Declared Value) is the current market value of your car. It's the maximum amount insurer pays if car is stolen or total loss.

Formula:

IDV = Ex-Showroom Price - Depreciation

Example: ₹10L car, 3 years old

Depreciation = 15% = ₹1.5L

IDV = ₹10L - ₹1.5L = ₹8.5 Lakh

šŸ’” Important: Higher IDV = Higher premium. Lower IDV = Lower premium but less claim amount. IDV reduces every year.

2. How much car insurance premium will I pay?

Premium depends on IDV, engine CC, city, NCB, and claims:

Comprehensive (₹10L car, 2 years old)

OD Premium: ₹12,000-18,000

TP Premium: ₹2,094-7,897 (fixed)

Total: ₹14,000-26,000/year

With 50% NCB (5 years claim-free)

OD after NCB: ₹6,000-9,000

TP: ₹2,094-7,897

Total: ₹8,000-17,000/year (Save 40%!)

With Zero Depreciation Add-on

Add 20% to OD premium

Extra ₹2,400-3,600/year

3. Should I buy Comprehensive or just Third-Party insurance?

āœ… Buy Comprehensive if:

  • Car is ≤7 years old
  • Car value ≄₹3 lakh
  • You drive frequently
  • Loan/finance on car
  • Can't afford repairs

Recommended for 95% car owners

āš ļø Third-Party enough if:

  • Car is very old (10+ years)
  • Car value <₹1 lakh
  • Rarely used/parked
  • Can afford repairs
  • Planning to sell soon

Only for old/low-value cars

šŸ’™ Verdict: Always buy Comprehensive if car value ≄₹3L. Premium difference is just ₹10K-15K but covers lakhs in damage!

4. Is Zero Depreciation cover worth buying?

Zero Depreciation removes depreciation on parts during claim. Worth it depends on car age:

āœ… Buy for cars 0-3 years old

New cars have expensive parts. Bumper replacement: Normal claim ₹15K vs Zero Dep ₹25K. Worth the 20% extra premium.

āš ļø Maybe for 4-5 years old

Depreciation is 20-25%. Still beneficial if you claim, but calculate cost vs benefit.

āŒ Skip for 6+ years old

30%+ depreciation, parts cheaper aftermarket. Zero Dep costs more than you save.

šŸ’š Example: ₹10L car, 2 years old. Zero Dep adds ₹3K/year. One bumper claim saves ₹8K-10K. Pays for itself!

5. How does NCB (No Claim Bonus) work and how to maximize it?

NCB is a discount on OD premium for every claim-free year. Increases from 20% to 50%.

NCB Progression:

1 year → 20% | 2 years → 25% | 3 years → 35% | 4 years → 45% | 5+ years → 50%

āœ… How to Maximize NCB:

  • Don't claim for minor damages (<₹10K) - Pay yourself
  • NCB is personal - transfers if you change cars
  • Buy NCB Protection rider to save NCB even after 1 claim
  • 5 years claim-free saves ₹10K-15K annually

āŒ What Resets NCB:

  • Any OD claim = NCB resets to 0%
  • TP-only claims don't affect NCB
  • Not renewing on time = Lose NCB

šŸ’° Real Savings: ₹20K OD premium with 50% NCB = Pay only ₹10K. Save ₹10K every year for life!
