SBI No Claim Bonus

The SBI General Insurance rewards its policyholders with No Claim Bonus for not raising any car insurance claim in a policy year. The NCB is offered in terms of discount at the time of car insurance policy renewal and ranges between 20% to 50%. To get the NCB and accumulate it with every claim free year, you should renew your claim on time. If you are unable to renew your plan within the specified time, you may do so within 90 days of its expiry, which is known as the grace period; otherwise, your NCB benefit will become null and void.

The No Claim Bonus is unique in that it can be transferable. Because it is given to the policyholder rather than the insured vehicle for safe driving, it can be transferred when you buy a new car or port to another car insurance policy.This benefit is applicable only on the standalone own-damage car insurance policy or on the own-damage component of the comprehensive policy premium. To secure the NCB, basically, there are two ways, where one is to avoid making any claim in a policy year and the other is to opt for an NCB protect add-on cover which keeps this benefit intact even after making a claim.
