Health Insurance

Most health insurance policies cover hospitalisation expenses, pre and post-hospitalisation costs, day-care procedures, and ambulance charges, subject to the terms of your specific plan. Our advisors can walk you through what a particular policy includes.

Yes, family floater health insurance plans let you cover yourself, your spouse, children, and sometimes parents under a single sum insured, which can be more cost-effective than individual policies.

Life Insurance

Term insurance is a type of life insurance that provides pure risk cover for a fixed period at a lower premium, with no maturity benefit if the policyholder survives the term. Other life insurance plans may combine protection with savings or investment.

Claims

You can register your claim by contacting our claims team with your policy number and incident details. We will guide you through document collection, submission and follow-up until your claim is settled.

Typically you will need your policy document, ID proof, and event-specific documents such as hospital bills and discharge summary for health claims, or an FIR and repair estimate for motor claims. Requirements vary by insurer and claim type.

Policy

Yes, in many cases you can port your policy to a new insurer while retaining continuity benefits such as waiting period credit, subject to insurer terms and porting regulations.
