    An expired electric vehicle insurance policy can result in legal penalties, financial risks, and policy gaps. Here is why you must renew your EV policies on time.

    Want to enjoy a seamless driving experience across India with a BH number plate? Read on to understand how the BH registration system works and the benefits it offers.

    What is IDV (Insured Declared Value)?

    Insured Declared Value (IDV) means the maximum payout offered by the insurer in the event of your vehicle's theft or irreparable damage. You can calculate it by subtracting your EV’s manufacturer-listed selling price from its depreciation value. In short,

    IDV = Manufacturer-listed selling price + Listed accessories costs- Depreciation.

    Let’s understand it with an example.

    If your electric car’s selling price is ₹20 lakh and it gets stolen within 6 months, your insurer will pay the compensation after applying a 5% depreciation rate. It means you will get ₹1.25 lakh as compensation. 

    Basis of Arriving at Insured Declared Value (IDV) of the Insured Vehicle:

    What is No Claim Bonus (NCB) in EV Insurance?

    Insurance companies offer No Claim Bonus (NCB) as a reward to policyholders for every claim-free policy year. This discount is generally pre-determined by the IRDA to encourage responsible policy usage.

    For example, for the first policy-free year, you can get around 20%, and later on, it becomes 25% in the subsequent years. With this discount, you can keep your coverage cost-effective despite the rising inflation in India. But remember, you can get the NBC discount on your third-party premiums, as it is only applicable to the own damage cover.

    What are the EV Insurance Terms You Need to Know About?

    FAQ's

    What types of EVs are covered under insurance policies?

    Electric vehicle insurance typically covers private electric cars and can also be available for other EV categories, depending on the insurer and product (e.g., two-wheelers or commercial EVs). Bajaj General Insurance offers solutions designed for eligible EV segments with customizable covers.

    Does EV insurance cover charging equipment damage?

    Under commercial electric vehicle insurance, damage to charging equipment is not always standard and may depend on whether it’s part of the insured vehicle/accessories and the chosen add-ons. If you use installed chargers or charging accessories, check inclusions carefully. We can help you select suitable add-ons for broader protection.

    What risks are unique to electric vehicles?

    EV insurance helps address risks such as battery thermal events, water damage to high-voltage components, costly electronic repairs, specialised towing/repair needs, and charger-related incidents. Since EV parts can be expensive, comprehensive cover and the right add-ons matter. We offer EV-focused options to match these evolving risks.

    Are natural disasters covered under EV insurance?

    Yes, comprehensive plans under Electric Vehicle Insurance India generally cover natural calamities like floods, cyclones, storms, earthquakes, and landslides, subject to policy terms. EVs can be sensitive to water ingress, so timely claim reporting is important. Bajaj General Insurance's comprehensive cover can help protect your EV against such events.

    Can I insure a hybrid vehicle under EV insurance?

    Electric vehicle insurance is typically meant for fully electric vehicles, while hybrids are usually insured under standard motor policies for petrol/diesel-hybrid categories. Some insurers may offer specific hybrid coverage options depending on registration details. We can guide you to the right policy type based on whether your vehicle is a hybrid or an EV.

    Does EV insurance include third-party liability cover?

    Yes. When you buy electric vehicle insurance online, third-party liability cover is included in third-party-only plans and also bundled within comprehensive policies. It protects you against legal liability for injury, death, or property damage to others. Bajaj General Insurance lets you compare plans online and choose the right coverage quickly.

    What does electric vehicle insurance typically cover?

    EV insurance typically covers third-party liability and, with comprehensive plans, own damage from accidents, theft, fire, and natural disasters. It also protects EV-specific parts like the motor, controller, and cables as per policy terms. Bajaj General Insurance offers flexible EV covers with useful add-ons.

    What is No Claim Bonus (NCB) in EV insurance?

Choose what matches the route conditions and downtime risk. For more information on eligible add-ons, get in touch with us.
