Stand Alone Third-Party Car Insurance
It is the basic and legally mandatory car insurance policy. It covers the expenses arising from damaging a third-party person or property with your insured car. It is ideal for individuals owning low-value vehicles and minimal usage with low-risk profiles.

Stand Alone Own Damage Car Insurance
It covers the damages incurred to your insured car as against third parties. The premium will be based on your specific car model, specification, and features. Individuals who own high-value vehicles and drive in high-risk areas can consider buying stand-alone own-damage car insurance in Jalandhar.

Comprehensive Car Insurance
One of the most preferred options, the comprehensive car insurance policy, is considered the best car insurance in Jalandhar for individuals seeking complete and extensive coverage against third-party liabilities and damages to their insured cars.

When you are ready to purchase a car insurance policy in Jalandhar, the first and most important concern will be the premium rate. It becomes your responsibility to choose adequate coverage while also ensuring it is affordable.

To ease this procedure, Tata AIG offers an online car insurance premium calculator that helps you compare and choose a product with the required features at an affordable rate.

Here is a brief description of the different factors that affect the four-wheeler insurance premium.

Insured Declared Value (IDV)—The IDV in car insurance refers to the maximum amount you can get if your car is totally damaged or stolen. It is decided based on the current market price, subtracting the depreciation value.

Age - The car insurance premium for a new vehicle is higher compared to that of older vehicles.

Type of car insurance policy - The choice of four-wheeler insurance, whether third-party, own damage, or comprehensive car insurance policies, will majorly affect the premium rate.

Engine Capacity — The car insurance premium for a car with a higher cubic capacity will be higher than that of a car with a lower cubic capacity.

Deductibles — Deductibles refer to the portion of the claim amount that you have to pay out of your own pocket. The premium will be lower if the deductibles are higher.

Add-on Covers** - Your car insurance premium will also increase based on the type and the number of add-ons included as part of your car insurance policy.

No Claim Bonus—If you have not initiated any car insurance claims in the previous year, you can benefit from a No-Claim Bonus that can significantly reduce your premium for the current year and subsequent years.

Other factors - Other related factors, including make and model, variants, location, modifications and additional security features, can also impact the cost.

Add-on covers offer enhanced protection by providing additional coverage benefits on your four-wheeler insurance. Tata AIG offers 17 add-on covers with wide-ranging benefits specific to scenarios.

Further, with the roadside assistance add-on, you will be offered assistance to handle a difficulty if you are stuck with your car breakdown or other issues. This assistance can include refuelling, towing, or any other mechanical services.

While initiating car insurance claim benefits, you can benefit from two options: Cashless Claims and Reimbursement Claims.

Cashless Claims

In a cashless claim, your insurer takes responsibility for everything, so you can relax and let them handle it all. You will just have to inform and register with us for the cashless claim and take your car to any of our network garages.

Based on a preliminary examination and a survey of the damages, we will approve the amount for the cashless claim settlement. Upon completion of repairs, we will settle the amount to that extent and pay the garage directly.

Reimbursement Claims

In a reimbursement claim, you will have the flexibility to take the necessary steps yourself, from taking your car to the garage to paying for the expenses, and you will also have the freedom to choose a preferred garage.

Primarily, you will have to register with us for the reimbursement claim and then proceed to a garage for the repair.

Upon completion, you can submit the receipts to us, and we will reimburse you for the expenses. While this option is more flexible, it can involve more documentation.

• Duly filled and signed claim form

• Registration Certificate

• Copy of driving licence

• Copy of car insurance policy document

• Proof of identity

• Proof of residence

• Original keys

• Payment receipts from the garage for reimbursement claims

• FIR - First Information Report (If it is an accident)

• No Trace Report provided by the police (If it is a case of theft)

• Letter to the RTO (If it is a case of theft)

• The concerned party's Legal Notice (If it is a third-party liability)

• Hospital treatment bills for personal accident claims

Cashless garages refer to garages authorised by us for repair services, to which we make payments directly in the event of a car insurance claim settlement. We have a network of about 7,500+ garages across India.

How does a cashless claim work?

• The first step is intimating us about the incident for which you plan to file a car insurance claim.

• Find a garage in our network and take your car.

• We will survey your car, and upon completion of the investigation, we will approve the applicable claim amount.

• Once your car is ready after the repair services, we will pay the garage directly for the expenses up to the approved limit. The remaining expenses, to the applicable extent, become your responsibility.

• Our network garages offer high-quality and swift repair services. Furthermore, if the accident leads to hospitalisation, you can use the funds for medical treatment expenses.
