Today, anybody and everybody, has insurance of some sort. Either they believe in insuring themselves and their loved ones, or in insuring their vehicles! In India and in most other places, vehicle insurance is mandatory. The amount your vehicle can be insured for varies depending on the insurance companies and the insurance brokers.
In India, there are several types of vehicle insurances. Companies in India offer insurance at four levels.
1.Fully comprehensive vehicle insurance- This is by far the most expensive insurance, yet the most common type, as it covers all the possible damages and costs that your vehicle may incur. This type of vehicle insurance proves to be advantageous as there is no need to produce proof of the damage to claim the insurance amount. Thus, if your vehicle is damaged or stolen in your absence, then you can still approach the insurance company.
2.Third Party insurance- This type of insurance carries a comparatively cheaper premium and insures against damages and legal claims when you are at fault and have hit a third party. The insurance company is not responsible for any other scratches or occurring that takes place with your car.
3.Specialized car insurance- This type of insurance refers to any car that is over 25 years old, as vintage cars have different needs and requirements. Similar to a comprehensive auto insurance policy, the only difference between the two is that you are limited to an x amount of miles in a given year.
