Insurance regulator, Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDAI), has raised the minimum insurance cover for owner-driver to Rs 15 lakh for a premium of Rs 750 per annum.
Currently, the capital sum insured (CSI) under this section for motorised two-wheelers and private cars/commercial vehicles is Rs 1 lakh and Rs 2 lakh, respectively.
However, a few general insurers have been offering add-on covers under package policies with higher CSI over and above the stipulated on payment of additional premium.
The regulator directed all general insurers to provide a minimum CSI of Rs 15 lakh under Compulsory Personal Accident (CPA) cover for owner-driver under Liability Only to all classes of vehicles at the premium rate of Rs 750 per annum for annual policy.
