Magma HDI Zero Depreciation Add-on
Every commodity loses monetary value over its age due to regular wear and tear. This process of devaluation is known as depreciation. Your car, also being a commodity, is subjected to depreciation and loses value over time. As a result, you receive a lesser claim amount during claim settlement because of the fact that your insurer factors the depreciation cost from the sanctioned claim amount.
However, availing the Magma HDI Zero Depreciation add-on cover along with the comprehensive car insurance policy or the standalone own-damage car insurance will allow you to do away with the burden of bearing the liability of depreciation.
