Damages Assessment
A surveyor is hired to determine the extent of the damage to the bike caused by the collision. To the surveyor, provide the properly completed claim form, policy paperwork, and circumstantial evidence.

Settlement of Claims
The surveyor provides his or her approval after considering all of the factors. The insurer acknowledges its financial and legal obligations and pays all costs associated with the insured's bike's repair at the garage. After subtracting the deductibles and depreciation, the claim amount is computed.
No-Claim Bonus from SBI
For two-wheelers, SBI General Insurance gives a No Claim Bonus with every own damage. This is available as a stand-alone own damage policy or as part of a complete two-wheeler insurance package. The NCB is given to the policyholder as a gift of appreciation for a year with no claims. This award is cumulative in nature, increasing to 50% after the fifth consecutive year. Any claim, no matter how slight, will, nevertheless, deactivate the collected award. As a result, unless the damage caused by a catastrophe is considerable, it is recommended that policyholders avoid submitting a claim. In order to preserve the accrued No Claim Bonus, the policyholder must renew their two-wheeler insurance policy on schedule. If they don't, the NCB will become invalid.
