Tata Bolt Insurance

Bolt is a hatchback launched by Tata Motors in January 2015. Now discontinued, Bolt came in eight variants and five attractive colours. The car offers a comfortable ride quality, ample interior space and a fuel-efficient engine. Starting from a price of ₹4.20 lakh, Bolt is good value for money and must be taken care of with a suitable car insurance policy considering the rising accidents, crimes and natural mishaps.

Why Do You Need Four-Wheeler Insurance

Four-wheeler insurance is an agreement between a vehicle owner and the insurance provider where the insurer promises to compensate for the losses arising out of third-party or own damages. In return, the vehicle owner has to pay premiums regularly.
It is an efficient tool to stay financially secure if your car is damaged or you get injured while driving it. Here’s more about why you need car insurance for your Tata Bolt:

  • Helps you comply with the law
  • Protects you from third-party liabilities
  • Compensates for loss or theft of your car
  • Protects against financial liabilities due to car damages
  • Protects your car from natural calamities
  • Offers a Personal Accident cover

Now let’s discuss the types of four-wheeler insurance policies in brief.

Types of Four-Wheeler Insurance

There are three types of four-wheeler insurance policies that are as follows:

  • Third-Party Liability Cover

The most basic car insurance policy is a third-party liability cover, which is mandatory as per the Motor Vehicle Act, 1988. Third-party motor insurance covers legal and financial liabilities arising out of third-party injuries/death or property damages. It means you can avail of compensation in case you injure a third party or damage his/her property.
However, this type of policy fails to offer respite for your car damages or injuries.

  • Standalone Own-Damage Cover

Another four-wheeler insurance is own-damage cover where you can avail of compensation for your losses too. This policy covers damages caused due to accidents, vandalism, riots, theft, fire and explosion and damage beyond repair. However, an own-damage policy does not cover third-party damages, damages due to driving while drunk or without a licence, or mechanical and electrical breakdowns.

  • Comprehensive Insurance

Among all three, only the comprehensive two-wheeler insurance policy can have the bundled benefits of both third-party insurance and standalone OD coverage. It provides extensive coverage for your two-wheeler from several damages due to accidents, natural disasters, riots, strikes, vandalism, theft, and much more. While the policy covers financial and legal liabilities arising out of third-party injuries or damages, it also includes a Personal Accident Cover up to ₹15 Lakhs. If your car is stolen or damaged beyond repair, the insurance provider will reimburse the loss based on the car’s IDV (Insured Declared Value).
