A voluntary deductible is a minimum amount that you choose to pay from the claim amount. The policyholder is required to pay the amount before the insurer contributes to the rest of the claim value. For example, if your repair costs Rs. 12,000 and you choose a voluntary deductible of Rs. 4,000, this is paid in advance as an investment in your car's repairs. The insurer will cover the remaining claim amount up to the limits specified in the insurance policy.
In case of an accident or theft of your vehicle, you should file an F.I.R. For claims including theft of vehicle, copy of F.I.R. is mandatory
