Types of Home Insurance Policies

Fire Insurance is one of the most common types of home insurance policies in India. However, the Indian home insurance market has to offer several other policies with more home insurance benefits.

Structural Cover

This is the most standard form of an insurance policy. Such policies cover the structure of your home in case it gets severely damaged. The policy will usually cover the costs you might have to incur to reconstruct or repair the damaged part. Such policies are frequently acquired with add-ons that give coverage to supporting structures like post-boxes, backyards, distant garages, etc.

Home Content Cover

Home Content Cover, as the name suggests, provides coverage to the contents within your home. This generally includes your furniture, movable & immovable electronic items, and valuables like jewellery. The caveat here is that you should be the owner of the asset insured, and it should be a result of a deliberate attempt to damage it at your hands.

Fire Cover

Other insurance policies are differentiated by 'what is covered by the policy.' Fire Cover gives you coverage against a common source of damage – fire. Incidents like unforeseeable natural calamities and accidents are covered under a fire insurance policy. It can be used to get coverage for your home, its contents, or both. You can also get fire insurance for your goods stored in distant warehouses with fire insurance policies.

Theft Cover

This particular variant of home insurance covers any damages you might have incurred because of theft. It compensates you for any stolen goods and valuables, as far as they are covered under the policy and your insurer can ascertain their value.

Tenant’s Cover

This covers only the contents since tenants do not own the building's structure. However, as a tenant, you should consider renting an apartment or a house covered by the landlord's insurance. This would save you from potential tussles with your landlord if the property or its contents or both incur some damage.

Landlord’s Cover

This is ideally a cover meant for landlords. It gives cover to your building’s structure and contents, even if you are not living in it. It can take away a major source of headache since you can never be entirely sure how your valuables and building are being handled. As far as you own the content and the building, you can get compensated for the damages.
