No Claim Bonus (NCB) in Car Insurance

No Claim Bonus is a reward provided by the insurance company to policyholders for raising no claim in a policy year. This bonus gets accumulated with every claim-free year and ranges between 20% to 50%. The accrued percentage of the benefit earned as NCB gives a discount on the premium of the next year. However, if a single claim is made in between a policy year or if the car insurance plan gets lapsed, then this bonus will become null and void.

NCB Add-on in Car Insurance Policy

NCB in car insurance refers to ‘No Claim Bonus.’ It is a type of reward offered by the car insurance company to the policyholder on the own-damage (OD) premium amount for not raising any claim during the policy term. NCB is a discount on your car insurance premium that you can avail at the time of renewal of your car insurance policy. The NCB discount percentage ranges between 20%-50% depending on the number of claim-free years.
