    What Is Third Party Car Insurance?

    A third-party car insurance is the most basic car insurance that every driver needs to have. It offers important legal and financial protection to the third party if they are hurt physically or have their property damaged by your car.

     

    You can drive in peace and stay out of trouble with the law by having a third-party policy. This means if you are caught driving without third-party insurance, you can face penalties or even imprisonment.

     

    A third-party car insurance policy limits property damage claims to ₹7.5 lakh and provides limitless compensation in the case of a third person's death. However, it does not cover damage to you or your own car.

    How Your Car's Insured Declared Value (IDV) is Calculated

    To calculate the insured declared value (IDV) of your car, you can use the formula below:

    IDV = Ex-showroom price of a car – Depreciation value) + (Accessory expenses - Depreciation on these accessories)

    This formula for calculating IDV applies to a brand-new vehicle with items added after purchase. The IDV computation is as follows if there are no additional accessories:

    IDV = Ex-showroom price of the car - Depreciation value of the car

    How Vehicle Age Affects IDV

    The main aspect influencing your car's IDV is its age. Standard depreciation causes a vehicle's IDV to decrease as it ages. A lower IDV results in a reduced premium but a smaller reimbursement in the event that the car is lost or stolen.

    IDV is calculated by insurers using the manufacturer's advertised ex-showroom price and a standard depreciation ratio that increases with vehicle age. The table below shows how we use standard depreciation rates to calculate a vehicle's IDV based on its age:

    AGE OF VEHICLE % OF DEPRECIATION FOR FIXING IDV

    Not exceeding 6 months

    5%

    Exceeding 6 months but not exceeding 1 year

    15%

    Exceeding 1 year but not exceeding 2 years

    20%

    Exceeding 2 years but not exceeding 3 years

    30%

    Exceeding 3 years but not exceeding 4 years
