Maruti A Star Insurance

Bringing home a brand-new car is always a momentous occasion, and you can make it even more unforgettable by taking it for a ride the day your carriage arrives. But first, you must be sure to insure the vehicle with third-party liability coverage at the least. The process of finding, customising, and buying a car insurance policy is simpler than ever at Tata AIG, and the best part is the claims process is far from complicated as well.

Here are the steps you can follow, either by visiting the nearest AIG centre or logging into our website:

1. Open the website and head to the four-wheeler insurance section.
2. Type in your A-Star's registration number, date of purchase, and other relevant details. Click on 'Get Price' for a new plan altogether or 'Renew' to upgrade an existing one.
3. Fill out the insurance application form and then click on 'Submit'. However, make sure there are no errors in the document to avoid re-writing.
4. You will receive a premium estimate.
5. Pick the exact or approximate Insured Declared Value (IDV) of your vehicle. Not sure what this is and how to calculate it? Check out our online calculator that will help you find out the market value of your Maruti Suzuki A-Star for free.
6. Let your insurer know in case you have filed a car insurance claim before. If not, you'll be entitled to a No Claim Bonus (NCB) automatically.
7. Your Maruti Suzuki A-Star insurance price will be shown on the screen alongside the premium amount to be paid for your purchase/renewal.
8. Before selecting a policy, you can compare car insurance plans, scroll through the add-ons, and custom-create the exact coverage you need.
9. Submit the premium payment online via any of the e-payment options. Once your payment has been verified, you will receive a soft copy of the plan on your registered email ID.

Not just your A-Star, but all Maruti Suzuki car insurance renewals on Tata AIG are simple. No matter which model you have, you can easily buy Maruti Suzuki car insurance online from us.

There’s no single factor that is responsible for your final premium amount on any kind of insurance. This depends largely on what and how you drive, including aspects such as the make and model of the vehicle, its safety and performance ratings, maintenance and repairs costs, size and dimensions, history of claims (if any), place of residence, etc.

Maruti car insurance premium prices are more directly based on the Insured Declared Value (IDV), which is the maximum liability an insurer carries in case of an accident, theft, or other incidents that are covered. This figure takes into the account the car’s depreciation value as well as the current market value of any add-on accessories. Calculating the IDV of your vehicle before applying for coverage will tell you what to expect vis-à-vis insurance premium rates.

Most people are under the impression that a one-size-fits-all principle works when it comes to insurance, but that’s not true. Sure, every motor policy offers basic features and benefits such as protection against third-party liability, but if you’re looking for something more specific and comprehensive, it’s always best to do your homework and understand exactly what is covered and not covered in a given plan.

At Tata AIG, a comprehensive auto insurance plan goes beyond traditional or mandated coverage. Below, we have listed out a majority of the features we offer, along with exclusions that aren’t included. This will help you understand exactly what to expect before filing a claim.

Keep in mind that the driver must possess a valid licence and an insurance policy at the time of the accident, without which the owner/driver may have his vehicle insurance claim rejected. So, if your existing policy is expiring, consider Maruti Suzuki A-star insurance renewal from Tata AIG and choose a comprehensive cover.

Contrary to popular belief, not every four-wheeler insurance policy needs to be generic. At Tata AIG, this philosophy is the reason behind our easy-to-personalise coverage that can be customised to fulfil specific requirements, so that your finances do not suffer in case of any mishaps along the journey. Having served India’s car insurance purchase and renewal needs for over two decades, we strive to ensure your insurance plan actually comes in handy under sticky circumstances, which are common on congested city roads. Of course, customizable coverage is only one of the many reasons why Tata AIG is such a trusted name in the country. Here are five distinct aspects of purchasing or renewing motor insurance from us:

Hands down one of the most beloved automobile manufacturers in India, Mauti Suzuki tends to live up to its reputation with every new offering. Their cars are not only affordable, but they return the best mileage, have spare parts available very easily, are a breeze to maintain, and have a high-than-average resale value. Safety and reliability are also synonymous with the Indo-Japanese brand, which is why the A-Star’s quick percolation on Indian roads is less than surprising.

Practical, stylish, and a through-and-through joyride for the city — that's how most people who have test driven the Maruti Suzuki A-Star describe their experience with this bite-sized hatchback. Winning hearts all over India, thanks to its compact design that barely demands space, a superb fuel economy that offers a great bang for every bucks, and an advanced integrated infotainment system keeping you entertained along the way, it's little wonder the vehicle has featured in almost every top-ten survey between 2012 and 2014.

Here's a snapshot of the A-Star's primary specifications for clarity:

• ARAI mileage of 19.0kmpl and city mileage of 17.0kmpl
• Has 998cc engine displacement and 3 cylinders
• Generates max power of 66.1hp@3500rpm and max torque of 90Nm@3500rpm
• Made with manual and automatic transmissions
• Fuel tank capacity of 35 litres
• Comes with a BS4-compliant engine mated to 5-speed manual transmission

Here's a list of the A-Star's variants and their respective prices:

• A-Star LXi (Manual, Petrol) - ₹3.72 lakhs
• A-Star VXi Airbag (Manual, Petrol) - ₹4.02 lakhs
• A-Star VXi Aktiv (Manual, Petrol) - ₹4.2 lakhs
• A-Star ZXi (Manual, Petrol) - ₹4.26 lakhs
• A-Star AT VXi Aktiv (Automatic, Petrol) - ₹4.55 lakhs
• A-Star AT VXi (Automatic, Petrol) - ₹4.58 lakhs

On the surface, Maruti Suzuki's A-Star might not seem too different from the flurry of hatchbacks found in the market today, but this deceptively roomy four-wheeler is more than meets the eye. As preppy and fun to drive through congested streets as open highways, there is no doubt the model is aimed at a younger age group whose needs are decent speed and space loaded into a singular, easy-to-handle drive. A fully-integrated sound system, sleek dashboard, sensible fuel economy, and the sheet variety of colours are more reasons why this hatchback has captured India's imagination as much as the original Alto.

Here are some other unique features of the A-Star well worth noting:

• What truly stands out about the car is the front, with bug-eyed headlamps and attractive curves that make it instantly recognisable on the road. The cool, sporty design of the exteriors as well as aesthetic interiors set it as the front-running choice for a young audience.
• This is the first Maruti Suzuki vehicle equipped with the K-Series Engine, carrying a one-litre petrol engine that packs 66hp @ 6200rpm and delivers a peak torque of 90Nm @ 3500rpm.
• It comes with a slightly narrow rear-end that is the secret to the car's compactness and ease of driving. However, the flip side to this might be a lack of proper legroom in the passenger seat.
• The wide-opening doors open to a surprisingly spacious cabin, a well-lit dashboard, and plush leather seating that all combine to make longer journeys feel short.

There are so many hatchbacks in the market today competing for the top spot, but only a handful of them come close to rivalling the A-Star's overall comfort and convenience. Taking price range, dimensions, and performance, these are the models to watch out for:

1. Datsun redi-GO
2. Renault Kwid
3. Maruti Suzuki Alto K10
4. Maruti Suzuki S-Presso
5. Datsun GO
6. Hyundai Santro
7. Tata Tiago NRG
8. Maruti Suzuki Celerio
9. Maruti Suzuki Wagon R
10. Maruti Eeco
