What is Covered and Not Covered in Comprehensive Car Insurance?
Every insurance has its limits. Here's what HDFC Ergo Comprehensive Car Insurance covers and doesn’t cover:
What it Covers
Fire & Explosions
Protects your car from damage caused by fire or explosions.
Accidents
Covers damage to your car due to an accident.
Third-Party Liability
Covers costs if your car causes damage, injury, or loss to another person, their property, or vehicle.
Natural & Manmade Disasters
Protects against natural disasters like floods, earthquakes, or manmade problems like riots and vandalism.
Theft
If your car is stolen, the insurance will pay based on the Insured Declared Value (IDV) mentioned in your policy.
Personal Accident
Covers injuries you might get from a car accident.
What Does it not Cover
Depreciation
Normal wear and tear of parts like tyres is not covered.
Mechanical & Electrical Issues
Problems like engine failure aren’t covered, but you can add extra coverage for these.
Driving Under Alcohol or Drugs
If you’re drunk or on drugs while driving, any damage to your car or others won’t be covered.
Intentional Damage
If you harm someone or their property on purpose, it won’t be covered.
No or Invalid Driving Licence
If you drive without a valid licence and cause damage or injury, the insurance won’t pay for it.
What Affects Your Comprehensive Car Insurance Premium
Here are some things that can change how much you pay for car insurance:Age of Your Car
The newer your car, the higher your insurance cost. Older cars usually cost less to insure because they might cost less to repair.
No Claim Bonus (NCB)
If you haven't made any insurance claims, you could get a discount on your premium. The longer you go without making a claim, the bigger the discount.
Add-ons
Extra options like zero-depreciation and roadside assistance add more benefits but also make your premium go up.
Type of Car
The brand, model, and type of your car affect your insurance cost. Sports and luxury cars usually cost more to insure than smaller cars like sedans or hatchbacks.
Car's Value (IDV)
It is the current value of your car at the time of renewing your insurance. It is directly proportional to how much your car is worth in the market, how much it has depreciated, and the general condition of the car. The higher the IDV, the higher the premium.
