Add-ons are additional coverage benefits which can be chosen voluntarily by paying an additional premium. Add-ons help increase the scope of coverage of the bike insurance policy. HDFC ERGO two wheeler insurance plans offer the following types of add-ons with the comprehensive policy:
In case of a claim under your two wheeler insurance policy, the parts of the bike might be replaced or repaired if they are damaged. When calculating the claim payable for the replacement or repairs of the parts, the insurance company would deduct depreciation due to usage. This depreciation reduces the claim amount. Though the garage charges the total amount incurred on repairs or replacement of the parts, the insurance company pays a reduced claim due to depreciation.
The rate of depreciation on the different parts of the bike is as follow
Types of parts of the bike | Rate of depreciation applicable |
---|---|
Rubber, plastic or nylon parts | 50% |
Fiberglass parts | 30% |
Tyres and tubes | 50% |
Metal parts | As per the depreciation of the Insured Declared Value of the bike |
A zero depreciation add-on cover nullifies this effect of depreciation. If the add-on is selected, no depreciation is deducted from the parts which are repaired or replaced. The insurance company pays the full costs incurred in such replacement or repair. The claim amount, therefore, increases.
