MUMBAI, India, June 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Zurich Kotak General Insurance's comprehensive car insurance policy is crafted to cover various risks, both large and small. Whether it's minor damage from a parking lot incident or significant damage due to unforeseen natural disasters, this coverage ensures that the insurers are always protected. Nearly 25% of car owners face accidental damage annually, and claims related to natural disasters have surged by 30% over the last five years.

What is comprehensive car insurance? Comprehensive car insurance covers a broad spectrum of events unlike normal insurance, which just covers damages from accidents in which car owners are at fault. Whether it's a hailstorm, theft, fire, or even damage caused by an animal crossing their route, etc. Essentially, comprehensive insurance protects them from unexpected events.

Risks covered under comprehensive car insurance • Accidental damage – Comprehensive car insurance covers both a minor fender-bender and the inadvertent scraping of a pole in a close parking space. Although repairs can be costly, this coverage spares car owners from having to pay the entire amount.

• Theft and burglary – Sadly, break-ins and car theft are not unusual. Comprehensive insurance protects them in the event of theft or damage. This suggests that they will always have access to replacement or repair options for their car.

• Natural calamities – Car owners may suffer greatly from floods, storms, hail, and even earthquakes. The all-encompassing insurance plan steps in to pay for these losses so they can concentrate on getting back on the road free from financial load.

• Third-party liability – Although this is essentially different from the overall dangers, the policy covers third-party liability, thereby shielding them financially if they damage or injure someone else's property or person.
