Add-ons Available Under TATA AIG Car Insurance Plans

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 Car insurance policy. TATA AIG Car insurance plans offer the following types of add-ons with the comprehensive policy:

Under this add-on, the depreciation* deducted from the cost of the parts repaired or replaced is reimbursed by the insurance company. Thus, through this add-on, no depreciation is deducted from the claim and a high claim amount is paid

In the case of a total loss of the car or theft, the Insured Declared Value (IDV) of the policy is paid as a claim. This value is lower than the actual cost of the car. If the add-on is selected, the invoice value of the car is paid in case of total loss or theft.

Under this add-on, a daily cash benefit is paid for your commute if the vehicle is in repairs for more than three days

If, after an accident, the vehicle cannot be used, the add-on covers the costs incurred in arranging for transportation back to your home. If you are far from home, the cost of hotel accommodation is also covered if you need to stay at a hotel overnight

If your vehicle meets with an accident or breaks down in the middle of the road, this add-on provides you with 24*7 assistance in the form of a flat tyre, jump-starting of car’s battery, spare key, refuelling, etc.

If the vehicle has suffered an accident for which it is under repairs or in case of total loss or theft, the add-on provides a replacement car for your conveyance needs

NCB is earned if you don’t make a claim in the policy. This bonus increases after every claim-free year and gives you a premium discount. A claim, however, nullifies the accumulated NCB. This add-on protects the accumulated NCB even after a claim

If, in case of damage suffered by the car, repairs are required only for the glass, fibre, plastic or rubber parts, the add-on protects the accumulated NCB

The add-on covers the cost of replacement keys if your vehicle’s keys are stolen or lost

If you or your family’s personal belongings are lost while they were in the car, the add-on would cover the cost of such loss if it is more than INR 250

The cost of consumables used in the repairs of the car is covered under this add-on. Consumables include lubricants, oil, screw, nuts and bolts, etc.

Under this add-on, the damages suffered by the tyre are covered if there is no other loss suffered by the car

If the engine and its internal parts are damaged due to water seepage, the add-on covers the cost of repairs

"It is mandatory for the policyholder to have a personal accident cover in his/her name. This cover is taken to cover accidental death or disablements. So, when you buy a third party or comprehensive TATA car insurance policy, you should opt for a personal accident cover with the plan as well. However, if you already have a personal accident cover in your life, you don’t have to buy it again with your car insurance policy. * Accidental death, total and permanent disablement due to an accident, and total and partial disablement due to an accident would be covered *The sum insured of the personal accident cover would be INR 15 lakhs * 100% of the sum insured would be paid in the case of death and total permanent disablement. In the case of total partial disablement, a percentage of the sum insured would be paid. * The premium for the policy is very low * You can either opt for the personal accident cover from the same company or from another company *If you want the personal accident cover for other passengers of the car, you would have to opt for an add-on and pay an additional premium for the same."
