Interesting Insights & Claim Stories of Digit Customers

A Digit Two Wheler Insurance Customer Received a Total Loss Claim of ₹3.22 Lakh in Bengaluru

In a recent case from Bengaluru, one of our policyholders experienced a total loss after their two-wheeler was severely damaged. Fortunately, the vehicle was insured, and we processed a claim payout of ₹3.22 lakh. This case highlights the importance of having dependable insurance coverage to stay prepared for life’s unexpected turns.

Digit Settled a Third-Party Claim Worth 1.12 Crores in Hoshiarpur, Punjab

In a recent case from Hoshiarpur, one of our policyholders was involved in a two-wheeler accident that tragically resulted in a third-party fatality. In this case, the vehicle was covered under a valid third-party insurance policy, and we processed a claim payout of ₹1.12 crore to address the resulting liability. This case highlights the vital role third-party insurance plays—even for smaller vehicles like two-wheelers—in offering essential protection during unforeseen events.

Rat Attacks on Two-Wheelers on the Rise

In Surat, a bike owner faced an unusual problem—rats chewed through the wire harness not once, but twice in a single year, all while the vehicle was parked safely at home! Thankfully, the insurance policy included coverage for such unexpected damages. Both times, the repair costs were fully covered, saving the owner from out-of-pocket expenses. 

This case proves that insurance isn’t just for accidents or theft—it also protects against the most unexpected (and smallest) threats.

Importance of IDV When Buying New Two-Wheeler Insurance

Importance of IDV When Buying New Two-Wheeler Insurance

  • IDV or the Insured Declared Value of the two-wheeler is the maximum amount your insurer will give you, in case your bike is completely damaged or stolen. We know low premiums are luring but it will not give you maximum financial benefit. That’s why you should always check the IDV you are being offered and not just the premium.
  • We suggest you choose higher IDV, you know why? In the case of the total loss of your bike, a higher IDV leads to higher reimbursements.
  • At Digit, we let you customise your IDV as per your choice because we want you to make the right decision without any compromises.
