The complex terminology used in insurance policies can often confuse consumers, making it difficult for them to understand their coverage fully. Car insurance is an important aspect of vehicle ownership, providing financial protection in the circumstances of accidents or damage. However, to empower consumers and promote transparency, Kotak aims to simplify five crucial car insurance terms for better consumer clarity.
Simplifying 5 crucial car insurance terms • Deductible If a policy has a Rs. 500 deductible and the repair cost is Rs. 2,000, the policyholder would be responsible for paying the first Rs.500 and the insurance company would cover the remaining Rs. 1,500. A deductible is the amount of money a policyholder must paid by the customer before their insurance coverage kicks in. Selecting a higher deductible typically results in lower premiums, while a lower deductible leads to higher premiums.
• Premium The premium is the amount a policyholder pays to the insurance company for their coverage. Insurance premiums are determined by various factors, including the policyholder's driving history, age, location and the type of vehicle being insured. Understanding premium is important because it directly affects insurance costs.
• Liability coverage Liability coverage is often required by law and is essential for protecting policyholders from financial liability in accidents they are responsible for. Liability coverage is the portion of an insurance policy that pays for damages or injuries caused by the policyholder to others in an accident or damage. It typically includes two components: bodily injury liability and property damage liability. Bodily injury liability covers medical expenses, pain and suffering and lost wages for the injured party, while property damage liability covers repairs for damaged property.
• Comprehensive coverage Comprehensive coverage is optional but may be required if the vehicle is financed or leased. Comprehensive coverage provides protection against damages to vehicles that are not caused by a collision with another vehicle. It typically covers incidents such as theft, vandalism, fire, natural disasters and hitting an animal. It helps shield policyholders against non-collision-related damages.
• Collision coverage Collision coverage is optional but is often recommended for newer or more valuable vehicles. If the vehicle is involved in an accident and in case it is damaged seriously, collision coverage helps cover the repair. This coverage is the portion of an insurance policy that covers a damaged vehicle resulting from a collision with another vehicle or object, regardless of fault.
