    The insurance policy is transferable; hence, you could easily transfer the insurance policy, or you can also opt for cancellation of the policy.

  • What is No Claim Bonus?

    No Claim Bonus is basically the discount given by the company in case no claim is requested by the insured during the complete tenure of his policy period.

    • Years-45%
    • or more years-50%

  • Can the LPG/CNG kit be covered in the policy? If Yes, then how?

    Yes, this can be done on payment of additional premium. The kit so installed should be added to the RC of the vehicle.

  • What if I lost my Car Insurance policy?

    You may reach your nearest branch to avail a duplicate copy against a nominal fee.

  • Can I cancel my car insurance policy midway?

    Yes, a policy can be terminated midway and the unused premium can be refunded on a short period basis provided alternate insurance proof is provided and there is no claim lodged in the policy.

  • My vehicle is financed by the SBI Bank. Shall I need to mention the same in my policy?

    Yes, it is necessary to incorporate that in the policy document. It should be mentioned under heading financier details.

Zero Depreciation

  • What is Depreciation?

    Depreciation is the continuous loss of value of a asset with time. Your car, just like any other asset, is also subjected to depreciation with a pre-decided rate.

  • Should I file a claim if my car got minor dents in an accident?

    It is highly recommended not to lodge claims for minor damages. You can file a maximum of two claims with Zero Dep add-on cover during the policy term.

  • I have purchased the Zero Dep add-on, will I get full claim now?

    No. This is because the Zero Dep add-on cover only exempts you from paying the depreciation amount of your car. You will still be liable to pay for the things that are not covered under your policy.

  • How can I know the quote for a comprehensive car insurance policy with Zero Dep add-on cover?

    Adding covers increases the premium amount accordingly. To know the premium of a policy with Zero Dep cover, visit www.insurancedekho.com and select SBI General car insurance policy along with Zero Dep add-on. Click on ‘get a quote’ to get the desired results.

  • Is there any way to calculate the depreciation of my car?

    You don’t need to worry about the calculations. Entire assessment is done by SBI General and you will be informed about all details. However, you only need to know the depreciation rate and age of your car to do the necessary calculations.

Third Party

  • Will SBI General compensate me for the expenses incurred while giving medical aid to the third-party?

    Yes, definitely. You just need to keep the bill/receipts of all the expenses incurred while seeking any medical attention. Submit those along with necessary documents during the claim settlement process and you will be reimbursed as soon as possible.

  • What if the accident occurred when my car is being driven by any other person?

    You can extend the legal liabilities for any paid driver/conductor/cleaner employed in operation of the vehicle. However, this cover is not available by default and you need to purchase it against an extra cost.

  • Do I need to renew the policy every year?

    No, there is no need to renew the policy every year. SBI General Act Only is a long term policy for 3 years, which eliminates the need for annual auto-renewal.

  • I have lost the insurance Policy. Can I get a duplicate one?

    Yes. Just approach the nearest branch and submit a written request. A nominal fee will be charged to furnish a duplicate copy of your insurance policy.

  • Is No Claim Bonus available with the Act Only cover?
