Cashless Motor Insurance

Hurdles such as approvals for repair and fixed rates can make the process time consuming

 

The pitch ' our insurance company has tied up with 1,600 garages' seems attractive to buy cashless motor insurance. However, this means little if the garages aren't located close when needed.

As is the case in the health segment, insurers offer cashless motor insurance, too, provided you choose to go to a garage that is part of the insurer's network. These schemes are gaining popularity— about 80 per cent of claims are from such policies, say industry players. For cashless motor insurance, most companies have a reasonable number of tie- ups. For instance, Bajaj Allianz has tie- ups with about 1,700 garages, while HDFC Ergo has tie- ups with about 1,600 garages across the country.

Such schemes are convenient:

 

If a network garage is located close to your residence, simply walk in for repairs after you have taken the approval of the company.

Another major advantage is customers need not pay the money upfront, as the insurance company concerned already negotiates and fixes the rates with the garage for tasks such as painting, denting and replacing spare parts.

Typically, if the insurance policy is bought from an authorised agent/ dealer of the manufacturer, the cashless facility is assured across the company's network in India, says Vijay Kumar, chief technical officer at Bajaj Allianz General Insurance. But in this case, the premium might be marginally higher, as it is customised for the manufacturer concerned for assured quality of repair, use of genuine parts and ease in the claim- handling and the repair processes. If you are buying a policy on your own, check for the number of garage tie- ups the insurance company has and whether the garages are authorised or capable of servicing claims for the vehicle- make owned by the customer.

Only in case of the roadside garage is the cashless facility not available, because these tend to be unauthorised and do not conform to certain standards. If you have a luxury car and a preference for a trustworthy garage, don't go for a cashless policy. Remember, if you don't have a cover such as a depreciation cap, you will have to pay the depreciation amount from the admissible claims. Also, the approval for repairs can be time- consuming. If the damage is a minor one and you want to address it quickly, or if the vehicle is old, maybe reimbursements are a better option.

So, while the cashless facility is preferred for private cars, in case of two- wheelers, not too many prefer it. It is also possible the garage might tell you for the rates fixed, you might not get the best possible work done. So, if you want better service you might have to pay additional charges or compromise on the quality

How to PPF Account extension after maturity

A PPF account can be retained after maturity without making any further deposits. The balance will continue to earn interest till it is closed. Public provident fund or PPF remains one of the most popular savings options for the long term despite a gradual decline in interest rates over the years. PPF accounts have a maturity period of 15 years and they can be extended. If there is no fund requirement, financial planners say, PPF account holders should extend the account beyond 15 years. In terms of income tax implications, PPF accounts enjoy the benefit of EEE (exempt-exempt-exempt) status . Under Section 80C, contribution up to Rs 1.5 lakh in a financial year qualifies for income tax deduction. The interest earned and maturity proceeds are also tax free. What are your options when a PPF account matures? 1) A PPF account can be closed after the expiry of 15 financial years from the end of the year in which the account was opened. 2) The subscriber can retain his
