What is Car Insurance?

Car insurance provides financial protection if your car is damaged in an accident, fire, or natural disasters like floods or earthquakes or lost due to theft.

When you buy car insurance, you pay a premium, and in return, the insurer covers repair or damage costs caused by accidents as per the terms of your policy. This saves you from paying large expenses out of your own pocket if something happens to your car

There are different types of car insurance to choose from. A third-party car insurance policy covers damage caused to others, including their vehicle or property, and any legal liabilities for injuries or death. Own Damage Insurance covers the cost of repairs or replacement of your own vehicle if it is damaged due to accidents, theft, fire, natural disasters (like floods or earthquakes), or man-made events (such as riots or vandalism) A comprehensive car insurance policy offers wider protection. It includes third-party cover as well as coverage for damage to your own vehicle.

This can include damage caused by accidents, theft, fire, natural disasters like floods or earthquakes, and man-made events such as riots or vandalism. You can also enhance your policy with optional add-ons like Bumper-to-Bumper Cover also known as Zero Depreciation (which ensures full claim without depreciation deduction), engine protection, roadside assistance consumable cover, no claim bonus protection, and others.
.
To put it simply:

  • Third-party insurance covers damage to others
  • Own damage insurance covers damage to your vehicle.
  • Comprehensive insurance combines both and offers stronger protection with add ons.

The Electric Surge Secure add-on covers damage from short circuits, power surges, and protects charging equipment. Charging equipment supplied with the EV is covered under the base policy for standard perils, but surge-related risks require this add-on.

TATA AIG General Insurance Company also provides Bumper to Bumper Cover and Engine Secure add-ons. Engine Secure applies to ICE and hybrid vehicles but is not needed for pure electric cars.

Why Do You Need Car Insurance?

Car insurance or a four-wheeler policy is necessary to protect your car and you from various situations and scenarios that lead to financial damages. Here are some of the reasons why you need to have a third-party or comprehensive four-wheeler insurance policy:

product-img

Compliance with the law

According to the Motor Vehicles Act, having a third-party car insurance policy is compulsory by law. Therefore, every car plying on Indian roads must be covered at least by 3rd party insurance.
Without a valid policy, you could get into trouble with the law and have to pay hefty traffic fines.

product-img

Protection from third-party liability

Third-party liability arises when the insured four-wheeler causes accidental damage to a third-party vehicle or property or injuries to a third-party person. Third-party car insurance or even a comprehensive car insurance policy covers these third-party liabilities and protects the policyholder of the insured car from financial damages.
At Tata AIG, we offer four-wheeler insurance policies with basic and extensive insurance coverage to protect you from a host of damages.

product-img

Cover against theft

If your four-wheeler or the car parts are stolen, then your car insurance policy can cover the financial damages and compensate you for the loss of the car or the replacement or repair of the car parts.
In case of total loss (damaged beyond repair) or theft of your car, Tata AIG ensures a quick and convenient settlement process to provide you with the sum insured of your car.

product-img

Protection against financial losses

A bump or deep scratch on your car due to an accidental collision or an act of vandalism can lead to financial damages.
Here, an Own Damage cover or comprehensive car insurance is useful as they offer complete protection to the insured vehicle from various kinds of damages, right from theft and accidents to damage due to natural disasters and more.

product-img

Cover against natural calamities

In case of floods, cyclones, storms, earthquakes or other natural calamities, your car can face significant damages and the extent of repairs can get costly.

product-img

Points To Consider While Choosing Car Insurance

The process of buying car insurance is simple but takes time and quite a bit of research. Moreover, it is of utmost importance to get at least a third-party car insurance policy from a legal standpoint.
Tata AIG understands the importance of having a suitable four-wheeler insurance policy and offers car insurance policies that cater to varying individual needs and budgets.
Below are some points you should consider when you buy car insurance:

custom list

Decide Insurance Type

While choosing four-wheeler insurance, you can choose between a basic third-party liability cover and a comprehensive insurance cover.
While having a basic third-party insurance cover is a legal compulsion and covers damages caused only to a third-party individual or property, a comprehensive car four-wheeler policy offers more extensive coverage that offers protection against accidental damage, damages due to loss and theft, natural and man-made disasters and also offers a personal accident cover.
We at TATA AIG also provide varied types of car insurance, such as Comprehensive Car Insurance Policy, Stand Alone Own Damage Car Insurance Policy, and Third-Party Car Insurance Policy. This array of choices so that you can find the car insurance type that best suits you and your car’s needs.

custom list

Policy Terms and Conditions

The policy coverage of your car insurance policy will depend mainly on your needs and your budget. Apart from that, your car’s make and model, the area you live in and other factors will affect the policy coverage. While choosing a suitable insurance policy, you can use the Tata AIG car insurance calculator to calculate and compare the coverage of various policies before making an informed decision.

custom list

Availability of Add-ons

While you buy car insurance online or renew your policy, you can consider extending or enhancing your policy cover with the help of appropriate add-ons. We offer a set of 19 unique add-ons such as Key Replacement, Return to Invoice, Engine Secure and more, that meet various situations outside the scope of your car insurance policy. A selection of the appropriate add-ons in your car insurance policy can provide an all-round protection to your four wheeler.

custom list

Check Insured Declared Value

The IDV or Insured Declared Value of the car is its current market value. When calculating your car insurance, the IDV is important as it is the amount your car is insured for. In case of “total loss” - complete damage or theft of the car - the policyholder receives the Insured Declared Value when the claim is settled. Always select the IDV carefully as a lower IDV means insufficient compensation in the event of total loss, even though it means lower policy premiums. On the other hand, a higher IDV could mean paying more expensive premiums.

custom list

Network of Cashless Garages

If your car sustains minor or major damage due to an accident, you can visit any of your insurer’s network garages for repairs. By choosing a network garage, you can avail of cashless claims, where the insurer directly settles the repair costs with the garage, reducing your immediate financial burden.

custom list

Compare Quotes

TATA AIG General Insurance Company’s online Car Insurance Calculator makes it easy for you to compare different four-wheeler insurance policies online. Depending on your budget and requirements, you can choose the insurance amount, the add-ons and then compare different plans to find the appropriate one to protect your car.

custom list

Check Claim Settlement Ratio, review, and service offered

The claim settlement ratio of a company is an important factor to be considered while purchasing your car insurance. If your insurer’s claim settlement ratio is high, it indicates a better chance of your claims being settled on time. Similarly, the service offered by the insurance company directly affects customer loyalty and should be checked before you buy a four-wheeler insurance policy from the company.

Factors Affecting Car Insurance Premium

Most car insurance policy purchases are decided on the cost of the four-wheeler insurance policy. Owner-drivers compare car insurance policies based on the premium to be paid and generally choose the lowest-priced one. Therefore, if you wish to choose a cost-effective car insurance plan, you need to know the factors affecting the premium. Here they are:

product-img

Insured Declared Value (IDV)

Insured Declared Value (IDV) is the current market value of the car after accounting for depreciation. IDV is the maximum amount you can claim if your four-wheeler is stolen or has suffered a total loss. Your car insurance is directly proportionate to your IDV, meaning higher IDV results in higher car insurance premiums.

product-img

Age of The Car

The age of the car affects the premium of a four-wheeler insurance policy. Insurance premiums are more expensive for brand-new cars and cheaper for older ones. Since the value of your vehicle depreciates every year, the IDV/Insured declared value falls along with the policy premium.

product-img

Insurance Coverage

The type of policy you purchase for your car decides the cost of the car insurance policy premium. A policy such as third-party insurance would cover only the third-party liabilities, which will come at cheaper premiums. Meanwhile, a comprehensive car insurance policy will cost more as it would cover all parties involved - you, your car, third-party and third-party property. Meanwhile, our other types of insurance such as standalone own damage policy provide a gamut of options in cover, which in turn delivers options in premium amounts.Meanwhile, a comprehensive car insurance policy will cost more as it would cover all parties involved—you, your car, third-party, and third-party property. Meanwhile, our other types of insurance, such as standalone own-damage policies, provide a gamut of cover options, which in turn deliver options in premium amounts.

product-img

Add-ons

Your car insurance premium will increase when you opt for add-ons with your policy. Different add-ons provide different types of additional cover for your four-wheeler, and your premium will depend on the number and types of add-ons you have chosen.

product-img

Engine Capacity

The size of the engine will influence your car insurance premium. Cars with higher cubic capacity engines will attract higher premiums for a car insurance policy than cars with lower engine capacity. Additionally, the IRDAI declares the annual third-party car insurance premium rates based on the engine cubic capacity of the vehicle.

product-img

Deductibles

Deductibles denote the percentage of the claim amount paid by the policyholder from their own pockets. A higher voluntary deductible means a lower premium as the proportion of the insurer’s liability goes down. However, a higher deductible also means a higher proportion of the claim that needs to be paid by you. So, choose well.

product-img

Claims History

Car owners who have not made claims in a given year can avail of a No Claim Bonus (NCB) from the insurer. NCB is a progressive discount on the renewal premium for a car insurance policy, which goes up with each claim-free year. Five consecutive no-claim years can fetch you a decent discount of 50% on the car insurance renewal premium.

product-img

Online Purchase

When you buy car insurance online, you can compare different policies, calculate the premium online and then select a plan that suits your needs and budget. An online purchase of car insurance allows you to customise the IDV and the premiums, which can result in affordable premiums.

product-img

Other Factors

Some other factors that affect the premium of a car insurance plan are the age of the owner, the location where the vehicle is registered, make, model and variant of the car, any modifications made to the vehicle and if the car has additional security features. These factors can decrease or increase the premium you have to pay for your car insurance policy.

How To Calculate Car Insurance Premiums?

The car insurance premium drives the choice of a four-wheeler insurance policy by individuals. As seen in the above section, there are many factors that affect this premium. But do you know how you can calculate the exact premium for your choice of car insurance policy? Below are the popular methods of calculating your four-wheeler insurance premium:

Additional Security Measures

If you choose to install additional security devices in your vehicles, such as parking sensors and anti-theft apparatus, you effectively reduce the risk associated with your vehicle. A reduced liability risk leads to lower premiums for your car insurance.

2

No-Claim Bonus

When you renew your policy after a claim-free year, you get a discount on the premium you have to pay. This discount can go up to 50% for five consecutive claim-free years. However, even a single claim will reset the NCB back to zero. Avoid making claims against your policy for minor damages to keep your NCB from lapsing.

3

Insured Declared Value

When you get a car insurance policy, the company runs an assessment to establish the highest claim value for your vehicle, known as the Insured Declared Value (IDV). However, you can reduce the vehicle’s IDV in exchange for a reduced cost of the premium. But remember that a lower IDV entails a lower reimbursement in case of theft or total damage to the car.

4

Increase Voluntary Deductibles

A voluntary deductible is a choice by the policyholders to pay a proportion of the claim amount while the insurance company pays the rest. When you raise a claim, the insurer will deduct this amount and settle the difference. By opting for higher deductibles, you can substantially reduce the cost of your car insurance premium.

Factors Impacting Insured Declared Value (IDV)

The Insured Declared Value is the approximate market value of your four-wheeler and the estimated amount of maximum reimbursement your insurance provider can give you in case of your car’s total loss
due to an accident or if stolen.

Factors Impacting Insured Declared Value (IDV)
The Insured Declared Value is the approximate market value of your four-wheeler and the estimated amount of maximum reimbursement your insurance provider can give you in case of your car’s total loss due to an accident or if stolen.

Make and model
The other factor that influences a car's Insured Declared Value is its make and model. Hence, the IDV of an expensive car will be higher than that of a more affordable four-wheeler.

Usage of the car
As the car ages, the parts undergo some depreciation due to usage and resultant wear and tear. The rate of depreciation is taken into account when calculating the IDV to arrive at the sum insured.
For example, for the first six months, the car’s depreciation rate is at 5% and then increases each year. Once the car is 5 years old, its rate of depreciation is 50% and remains so as the car ages further.

Geographical location
Another factor that affects the IDV is the geographical location where the car was registered. The IDV of cars in metropolitan cities is different from the IDV of cars registered in smaller towns in the country. This is because, in some areas, the risk of theft and safety concerns might be higher.

Safety Features and Modifications
Another factor that can impact your car’s IDV is the type of modifications you have added to your car parts and the type of security or anti-theft devices you have installed in the vehicle. The higher the installation of safety features, the higher the IDV, and vice versa. Similarly, depending on the types of car modifications, the IDV might vary as it impacts the risk profile of your vehicle.

Age of the vehicle% of Depreciation For Fixing IDV

Not exceeding 6 months

5%

Exceeding 6 months but not exceeding 1 year

15%

Exceeding 1 year but not exceeding 2 years

Exceeding 2 years but not exceeding 3 Years

How to Choose the Best Four-Wheeler Insurance Policy Online?

1) Decide on the Type of Insurance

To choose the right car insurance, consider your car's age and value. Third-party insurance is required by law and covers damage to others’ vehicles or property. It’s a basic option suitable for older or less valuable cars. Comprehensive insurance provides broader protection, covering both third-party damage and your own car’s damage from accidents, theft, fire, or natural disasters. If your car is older or you want a more affordable option, third-party insurance may suffice. For new or high-value cars, comprehensive insurance offers better overall coverage.

2) Compare Policies Online

Use insurer websites to compare plans online. Enter your vehicle details to get quotes, but remember that premiums depend on IDV, car model, add-ons, and location.

3) Choose Add-ons

Check the available add-ons based on your vehicle’s eligibility and policy type. Add-ons like Zero Depreciation, Engine protection Cover, and Roadside Assistance offer additional coverage, ensuring you're better protected in case of specific damages or emergencies that may not be fully covered under the standard policy.

4) Look for Online Savings

You can save on car insurance through online discounts and No Claim Bonus (NCB) if renewing an Own Damage policy. NCB does not apply to first-time policy purchases.

5) Claim Process and Network Garages
A wide network of cashless garages supports repairs following an accident; however, claim approvals depend on verification and the terms of your policy. Certain repairs may not be fully covered due to policy exclusions.

6) Purchase Online

Once you select the right policy, buy it online for a paperless and uncomplicated process. Some policies, especially for high-IDV vehicles, may require additional verification.

How to choose the right car insurance policy online?

Finding the best car insurance policy online requires proper comparison. Follow these steps:

Step 1: Choose between third-party and comprehensive car insurance. Third-party insurance is the minimum legal requirement, covering damage to others' property and injuries. Comprehensive insurance offers broader coverage, including damage to your own vehicle. Personal Accident Cover is included in both types of policies but is usually separate for drivers and passengers if not already included.

Step 2: Compare car insurance quotes from multiple insurers.Premiums are influenced by factors such as the Insured Declared Value (IDV), vehicle model, location, and any add-ons you choose.

Step 3: Check add-ons available for your car’s age and policy type, such as roadside assistance, engine protection, zero depreciation etc.

**Step 4: ** Evaluate coverage benefits and policy terms, not just the renewal price.
A lower premium may result in fewer benefits or coverage, so ensure the policy offers adequate protection for your needs.

Step 5: Carefully review the policy terms, including inclusions and exclusions.
Understanding these details is crucial to ensure you're aware of claim eligibility and any conditions for policy renewal.

Step 6: Make a secure payment. Instant policy issuance depends on verification, and additional approvals may be required in certain cases.

Buying 4-wheeler insurance online offers transparency and convenience.
However, claim settlements will depend on the policy terms, required documentation, and approval processes.

However, Tata AIG General Insurance Company provides a renewal window of up to 90 days from the expiry date, during which you can renew your policy without losing continuity benefits. However, no coverage is available during this period until the policy is renewed, and renewal may require a vehicle inspection in certain cases.
