How can I get discount on premium payment?
You can receive a discount on your premium payment through the No Claim Bonus (NCB). If you haven’t made any claims in the previous year, you are eligible for a 25% discount on the premium when renewing your fire insurance. This discount is calculated by comparing the current year’s renewal total premium with the total premium from the previous year, and the NCB will be based on the lesser premium amount.
What is a Fixed Policy for stocks?
A Fixed Policy provides coverage based on a pre-determined sum insured, agreed upon at the policy’s inception. It is ideal for businesses with consistent inventory levels.

A Declaration Policy is an annual policy offering flexible coverage for businesses with fluctuating inventory. The sum insured is adjusted monthly based on declared values, aligning with the Market Value at the time of loss.
