    How To Make A Cashless Car Insurance Claim With Cholamandalam?

    Step 1: Request For Claim Initiation

    Immediately inform Cholamandalam about the accident/mishap. You can inform the insurer by calling 1800-208-5544. You can also inform the insurer by visiting its general insurance website, clicking on the ‘Claims’ tab and selecting the ‘Motor Claims’ option. Login with your credentials, provide your policy details and click on the ‘Make a Claim’ button to request a claim initiation.

    Step 2: Inspection By A Surveyor

    Cholamandalam will send a surveyor to examine the extent of damage suffered by the car. If you had opted for the ‘On-site Minor Repair’ add-on at the time of policy purchase, then you can request for an on-site repair service in case of minor damages.

    Step 3: Request For Towing Service

    Ask the insurer to arrange a towing service for the damaged vehicle. The company provides a towing service within 50 km range of the accident spot. The towing service is free of charge up to Rs. 3,000 with the ‘Transfer Cost Reimbursement’ add-on and up to Rs 1,500 with the ‘Transfer of the covered vehicle’ add-on cover. Get the car towed to the nearest Cholamandalam authorised garage.

    Step 4: Car Repairs

    Your car will be repaired at the workshop and the insurer will pay the entire repair cost directly to the garage after completion of all formalities and documentation. The documentation can be done online also by uploading all the necessary documents on the ‘Motor Claims’ page.

    Step 5: Payment of Deductibles

    Pay the compulsory deductible amount along with the voluntary deductible amount (if opted for) to the insurer and take your car home!

    How To Make A Reimbursement Car Insurance Claim With Cholamandalam

    Step 1: Inform Cholamandalam

    Call Cholamandalam at 1800-208-5544 and inform them about the accident/theft/mishap involving the insured car. Ask the representative on the call to initiate the claim. Alternatively, you can request a claim initiation on the company’s general insurance website. Click on the ‘Claims’ tab, select the ‘Motor Claims’ option. Proceed by logging in with your credentials. You will be redirected to a new page asking for your policy details and click on the ‘Submit’ button. You will receive a claim initiation confirmation email from the insurer.

    Step 2: Survey Of Damaged Vehicle

    The company will arrange a surveyor for inspection of the extent of damage incurred by the insured vehicle. However, if the damage is minor and you had opted for the ‘On-site Minor Repair service’ add-on at the time of purchasing the policy you can get the car repaired by the insurer on the accident spot.

    Step 3: Tow Vehicle To The Nearest Garage

    Take your vehicle to the nearest garage after inspection. You can arrange a towing service by yourself or raise a request for the same with the insurer. The towing cost is reimbursable up to Rs 1,500 or Rs 3,000, depending on the type of add-on purchased.

    Step 4: Repair Of Damaged Vehicle

    Get your car repaired at a nearby garage/workshop. Make sure you collect all the original bills from the garage before taking your car home.

    Step 5: Claim Settlement

    Submit all the original repair bills along with the required documents to Cholamandalam to initiate a reimbursement of the claim amount. You can submit either by post or online by uploading them on the Cholamandalam general insurance website’s ‘Motor Claims’ page.

    Post completion of all formalities, Cholamandalam will reimburse the claim amount to you after factoring in the applicable deductibles (compulsory and voluntary, if opted for). The reimbursement may take up to 7 working days from the completion of formalities.

    Common Claim Rejection Reasons

    • Car being driven by a driver under the influence of intoxicants at the time of accident/mishap.
    • Occurrence of accident due to the negligence of traffic rules or careless/rash driving.
    • Delay in informing the company about the accident.
    • Initiation of car repairs without required intimation of the claim/accident/mishap to the company.
    • Absence of valid documents with the driver at the time of accident.
    • Expired/invalid car insurance policy.

    Cholamandalam MS No Claim Bonus

    No Claim Bonus or NCB is a reward offered by the Cholamandalam MS to its policyholders for not raising any claim request during a policy year. The NCB is provided in terms of discount which ranges from 20% to 50% and is delivered to the insured person at the time of policy renewal with which the car insurance premium for the next year reduces by the percentage of the NCB. This benefit is applicable only on the own-damage section of a car insurance policy when the insured vehicle has been insured continuously for a period of twelve (12) months without any type of break.

    As the No Claim Bonus is given during the time of policy renewal, which means it is quite necessary for policyholders to renew their policies on time to continue to hold and avail this benefit, otherwise, it will be terminated. Also, this discount is transferable in case the policyholder buys a new vehicle or another car insurance policy due to the fact that it belongs to policyholders and not to the insured car as it is given for making no claim which is possible with safe driving. To continue to hold this benefit, it is suggested to try not making any small claims and bear them on your own.
