காற்கறிகள் மனிதர்களுக்கு சரிவிகித உணவு அளிப்பதில் முக்கிய பங்கு வகிக்கிறது. அவை சுறுசுறுப்பான வாழ்க்கைக்கு உதவும் உயிர் சத்துக்கள், தாது உப்புக்கள், நார் சத்துக்களை வழங்குவதுடன் சக்திக்கு தேவைப்படும் மாவுச் சத்துக்களையும் அதிகமான அளவில் வழங்குகிறது. எனவே மாதவாரியான உள்நாடு மற்றும் வெளிநாடு சந்தைத் தேவையினை கருத்தில் கொண்டும், அதிக லாபம் பெறும் நோக்கத்தில் மாதாந்திர காய்கறிகளின் விலை விவரத்தினை அறிந்தும் பயிரிட வேண்டும்.

Tips to Reduce the Cost of Your Car Insurance

We always keep looking for various ways to reduce the cost of the product we buy, so that the deal becomes cost effective without compromising on its benefits. And if the cost of the product is on a rise, then making the deal economical becomes our prime concern.  The same goes with a car insurance policy.

On the basis of cost inflation and claim statistic, the cost of car insurance is revised every year by IRDAI and last year, the premium rate of car insurance policies was increased by 40%. The increasing price of car insurance is causing problems in the financial planning of many people, but there are many ways through which you can reduce the cost of car insurance premium and make it fit into your budget easily.

That’s why we have outlined some of the important tips which will help you to reduce the premium of your best car insurance policy and tackle the increasing price of car insurance in the most effective way without compromising on its benefits.

1. Compare prices
Comparing car insurance policies allows you to choose the most cost effective and best car insurance in India and with the availability of online car insurance policies, comparing car insurance has become very easy.  You might find a great difference in the price of two policies which are offering almost the same benefit and that’s why comparison is necessary. You can compare car insurance policies through various IRDAI certified web aggregators or through the insurance company’s online web portal.

2. Install anti-theft devices and stay safe
Car insurance companies decide the amount of premium on the basis of risk associated with the car. Higher risk will result into higher premiums. That’s why the installation of anti-theft devices like anti-theft alarm, lock for the steering wheel, air bags, etc., reduces your car insurance premium by 5%. And if you are linked with Automobile Association of India (AAI) or the Western India Automobile Association (WIAA), you can get special discounts and benefits. The members  of these associations are considered as “safe drivers” because such associations are empowered by Motor Vehicle Act and Rule.

3. Avoid Small Claims
If you don’t make any claim for a particular period of time under your car insurance policy, then you are rewarded with No Claim Bonus (NCB) which allows you to lower down your premium till a limit. That’s why you should avoid making claims for small expenses which could snatch your NCB and opportunity to reduce your premium.  A small  saving in the form of claims for small expenses can keep away from the big benefits which you could receive in the form of reduced premium.

4. Go for a higher voluntary deductible
Deductible is the amount of money which you pay from your own pocket upon claim while the insurance company covers the rest. At the start of the policy, you can choose your voluntary deductible according to your need and situation. A higher voluntary deductible decreases your premium amount, but you should  choose your deductible according to your affordability otherwise instead of lowering down the premium, you will end up paying more on each claim you make.

5. Transfer your NCB
You should always transfer your NCB after buying a new car and selling the old one. By transferring NCB, you will be able to take advantage of your accumulated NCB on your new car also. You should always remember that a car insurance policy is linked with the policyholder not with the car. In order to transfer your NCB, you need  to inform your car insurance company about the transfer and they will give you a form which will help you in the transfer.

6. Purchase online
Online car insurance policies are much cheaper than offline policies. While buying through offline medium, a certain amount of commission is charged by the agent, which gets added to your premium amount while in online car insurance, there is no involvement of any middleman and that’s  why the insurance companies are able to provide you the insurance at low prices. Buying online gives you a wider range of options also, so that you can choose the best car insurance policy for yourself.

7. Declare correct IDV
Insurance Declared Value is the value of your car which is decided by the insurance company and it is calculated by considering the depreciation value over the original market price. It is the maximum value which you will receive upon claim in case of total loss or damage. You should always declare the correct IDV of the car because it will make you eligible for a reduced premium.

So instead of worrying about car insurance premium popping out of your budget, you should use the above mentioned tips and make the purchase of car insurance, an economical deal. But in the rush of reducing your car insurance premium, you should never compromise with its benefits.

Tips to keep in mind before buying car insurance

Buying a car not only costs a mammoth amount of money, but the entire experience also has an emotional value attached to it.

It is always better to be prepared for any eventuality and therefore choosing the right car insurance for one's four wheelers is one of the key decisions to make.

Head, Product Strategy, ACKO, Animesh Das lists out tips to keep in mind before buying car insurance:
car insurance tips
car insurance quote

1. Kind of insurance plan

There are two types of car insurance plans. One is a third party liability insurance plan and the other one is a comprehensive car insurance plan. The third party liability insurance covers only injuries caused to other people in an accident but does not cover the damage to one's own vehicle. 

A comprehensive car insurance policy, on the other hand, covers third party liability along with the personal accident or self-vehicle damage and theft. Therefore, it is better to buy a comprehensive insurance plan.

2. Mode of purchase

The best mode of purchasing a car insurance policy is buying it online. This allows one to get a better deal for a similar type of plan, as compared to buying it offline. 

When one purchases the policy offline, he/she needs to wait for the policy document to arrive at their doorstep via post. This is not the case when it is bought online, as one can download the policy within minutes.

Also, the chances of being conned by an agent are almost negligible.

3. Cashless facility

An insurance policy that offers cashless facility, will save one from making several rounds of follow-ups, e-mails, and visits to the insurance company for reimbursement. 

In a cashless insurance, one will have only have to visit the four-wheeler garage, which the insurance company has a tie-up with. The cashless facility comes in extremely handy during an emergency.

4. Customer support

After purchasing a car insurance, the thing one needs the most is decent customer service and support. Choose a brand that is known for their customer service and 24x7 customer support. 

Garner reviews online or from word of mouth. Also, read up on customer support policies and know their contact points at the time of claim.

5. No claim bonus

It is important to look for a company's No Claim Bonus (NCB) policy. NCB is the coverage that is given to those clients who do not make a claim for an entire year. The amount of generally between five to ten percent of the insured declared value, which is given as a bonus at the time of the renewal of the car insurance policy. Sometimes NCB is also carried forward. 

6. Easy claim procedure

Look for a company that has an easy claim settlement process. One can read out the claim policy and procedures and also speak to existing users to know about their experiences, before buying a car insurance from any provider. 

7. Add on facilities

It is always wise to look for some additional benefits. These include:

- Zero depreciation: where one can get the reimbursement for the four-wheeler parts replaced as per their actual value and not the depreciated value.

- NCB protect: where one can keep the discount on account of no claims even if they have already claimed it once in that year

- Hydrostatic cover: which covers losses due to mishaps like waterlogging.

- Also look for additional frills like all-time road assistance, towing amenities, which come in handy in case of an emergency.

A little bit of research helps one save a lot of money and get the coverage that is worth their cost.

10 tips to shrink your car insurance bill

Apart from zeroing down on the best car loan deal, it is equally important to choose an appropriate auto insurance policy. We all know that auto insurance is a mandatory legal requirement when you purchase your car. And there have been instances where you, as an insured, have been charged high premiums.
But there are several ways by which you can lower the premium rates offered to your by your insurers.

Earlier, the geographical zone, the engine capacity, the cost, and the age of the vehicle were the four parameters that were taken into consideration for deciding the premium amount that you needed to pay.

However, there have been various other requirements that have been taken into consideration so that the insured gets to pay lower premiums and avail maximum benefits in case of an accident.

1. Provide correct information: By providing your insurer the correct information, you can reduce your premiums by 10-30 per cent.
2. Model and make of your car: The decision regarding how much premium needs to be charged depends upon the make and model of your car. If your car's make/model is more prone to accidents, as in the books of the insurer, you are likely to be entitled to higher discounts than those make/models of cars which are less prone to accidents.
3. Gender and profession of the driver: The practice of dividing premium considerations on the basis of gender is commonly followed in the West, which is yet to catch up in India. However, some insurers consider female drivers better than male drivers, making the female drivers entitled to higher discounts than their counterparts. The driver's profession too affects the insurance premium. If an office goer uses a car, it is obvious he uses it to commute between his home and office, rather than a sales person, who will use to commute in various cities on a wider basis.
4. Locality where the vehicle will be driven: Apart from the locality, the place where the vehicle is piled or registered is taken into consideration these days. Insurance companies calculate the claims depending upon the location. In congested cities, where bumper to bumper traffic is observed, claims for scratches and dents are more, whereas location highways carry a huge claim amount because they are prone to major accidents.
5. No claim bonus: No claim bonus is a discount allowed as a percentage on the 'own damage premium' and the same is increased every year to the next slab if a claim for damage to the vehicle is not preferred and it is discounted if there was no claim preferred during the currency of the expiring policy. The discount may go up to 50% and it is up to the insured to decide if he wants to transfer the same on another vehicle. If the customer sells his old vehicle, he can also be kept in abeyance and utilize it on a car bought at a later date.
6. Voluntary deductibles: A voluntary deductible discount is offered and the discounts can go up to 35% of the premium for vehicle damage, an option that can be considered by a customer if he wants to opt out of small claims for minor damages and the insurance company will pay a claim only for the damages in excess of this limit of voluntary deductible. Your premium can be way reduced by this move.
7. Safety features: In order to attract 2-5% discount on your premiums, it is necessary to install anti-theft or other safety features from an approved make by your insurer. Therefore, you should provide full and exact details about your vehicle along with safety measures adopted by you in order to avail discounts.
8. Automobile association member: If you are a member of any designated automobile association, then you can avail discounts on own damage premium, which is applicable for private car and motorized two-wheeler policies. A discount of 5% is given on the own damage premium.
9. Concession on your vehicle: If your vehicle was lying in the garage or was not in use for a minimum period of two months then upon notifying your insurance company the customer can avail a concession during renewal of the policy either by way of extending the period after expiry or a credit to the renewal premium.
10. Online purchase: When you buy or renew a private car insurance online, some insurers offer a higher discount. The insurance company has a considerable saving on processing and distribution costs when the transaction is carried out online.
Since these parameters are constantly changing, it always advisable for car owners to get in touch with their insurance company for the latest benefits available.

What is SR-22 Insurance | SR 22 Insurance Cost

4 comments
sr22 insurance
sr22 car insurance

The SR-22 insurance. Most of them speaking about SR-22 Car Insurance !! But Most people probably have a hazy idea of what it is. Maybe you’ve had a friend who needed one or you understand vaguely that it has to do with car insurance. But really, what is an SR-22? Is it something you get from the DMV or your car insurance company? Does everyone have to have one? Is it bigger than a breadbox?

It seems that, aside from a general sense of foreboding, most people don’t know much about SR-22s. And that’s fine. As long as you practice safe driving and don’t let your insurance lapse, you’ll never need one. But just in case, here are a few SR-22 insurance basics to help keep you in the know.

What’s an SR-22?

An SR-22 — also known as SR-22 insurance or Certificate of Financial Responsibility (CFR) — isn’t a type of car insurance, but verification that you’re maintaining car insurance liability coverage. An SR-22 form is a state-mandated certificate filed by your car insurance carrier with your state’s Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).

Who needs an SR-22?

An SR-22 is required when someone who was in an accident or convicted of a traffic offense couldn’t show financial responsibility. For example, you’d need an SR-22 if you were caught driving without car insurance.

You might also need an SR-22 if you had any of the following:
  • A DUI or DWI or any serious moving violation
  • An at-fault accident while driving without insurance
  • Repeat traffic offenses or too many tickets in a short time period
  • A revoked or suspended license

What does an SR-22 cost?

Though it varies by state, car insurance companies will typically charge a nominal fee of $15 to $25 for filing an SR-22 form.

If you need an SR-22, however, you’ll first need to purchase a car insurance policy. Your car insurance rate will be determined based on all the factors that normally go into rating a policy. However, keep in mind that car insurance companies generally consider drivers who need an SR-22 riskier to insure, so your car insurance rates will likely reflect the risk.

We recommend shopping around, but remember, the cheapest SR-22 insurance quotes may not be the best. You should always consider the company’s service, financial responsibility, and reliability when making an insurance purchase of any kind.

How do I get an SR-22?

To obtain an SR-22, you’ll need to go through your car insurance provider. Only an insurance company that is filed with the state can issue SR-22s.

Additionally, if you have an SR-22 in one state but move to another, you’ll need to fulfill the SR-22 requirements for your former state, and your new liability limits will need to meet the minimums required by law in your former state.

How long does an SR-22 have to be maintained?

Most states require drivers to carry SR-22 insurance for 3 years. In that time, continuous coverage must be maintained. If there is an insurance lapse or cancellation, your car insurance company is legally obligated to notify the DMV and your license will be suspended.

How can I avoid an SR-22 requirement?

You can avoid the complication and expense involved with an SR-22 filing by simply maintaining your car insurance and practicing safe driving.

Here are a few useful reminders:

  • Don’t drink and drive. DUIs and DWIs are the most common reasons for needing to file an SR-22 certificate.
  • Drive safe. Not only can too many moving violations result in an SR-22, they can significantly increase your car insurance premiums.
  • Don’t drive without insurance. If you don’t have car insurance and you’re pulled over, you’ll be required to prove financial responsibility by way of an SR-22.
  • Bottom line: Drive carefully and stay insured and you’ll never need to know any more than this about the SR-22 (which, by the way, is smaller than a breadbox).
