There is a claim process that you should follow to initiate a claim under your Kotak Mahindra car insurance policy. This process is as follows
- As soon as you suffer a claim, inform Kotak General Insurance about the same. To inform, you can visit https://www.kotakgeneralinsurance.com/claims and register your claim online. You can also call the toll-free number 1800 266 4545 between 8 am and 8 pm and intimate the company. Alternately you can simply click on https://www.turtlemint.com/raise-claim/ and raise your claim by filling up a form:
- After registering your claim, you would get a Claim Reference Number (CRN) which would be used for claim processing
- You would have to submit a list of documents for the claim processing. These documents include the car insurance policy, driving license, RC book of the car, FIR (for a third party or theft claims), etc.
- The company would arrange for an inspection of the claim after which the claim would be approved
- If you have taken your car to a networked garage, you can opt for cashless claims. The company would settle the repair costs directly with the garage
- In the case of non-networked garages, however, you should bear the repair costs initially. Then, after you submit the original invoices and bills, the company would reimburse you for the costs incurred
- Any deductible applicable under the policy and excluded costs would have to be borne by you
