What is Add-On Cover in Car Insurance?

Add-on Covers in Car Insurance by Digit

Zero Depreciation cover

In majority of the cases, it is the car owner who pays for the depreciation and replacement of new spare parts, after an accident. However, if one wants this expenditure to be covered by the insurance company, one needs to buy the Nil or Zero Depreciation add-on to avail the benefits of this cover along with the existing insurance plan. The Nil or Zero depreciation plan covers repair and replacement costs of rubber, plastic and fibre components of the vehicle.

Consumable cover

At the time of claims, usually consumables like oil, nuts and bolts etc. are not covered under insurance. With this add on, you can save on all those consumables that will be covered however small they might be! This add on covers expenses towards consumables which are unfit for further use, arising out of damage due to an accident.
