Personal accident insurance: A bonus during monsoon?

Come monsoon, many across India will look for ways to battle the rising casualties on the road. One of the better ways to be adequately prepared for the coming months is to obtain a reliable personal accident insurance cover. It is a policy that helps compensate the insured in case of any injuries, death or disability which are caused by accidental circumstances.

Accidents
Monsoon months clock rising accidents in India

With monsoon nearing, most residents are wary of the alarming rise in accidents in India. The weather brings with it serious injuries, deaths and road mishaps. These months (June to September) register the highest number of accidents during the year, records show. The season also throws external infrastructure into haywire, destroying scaffolding, buildings and electronic equipments.

Information
What does the data show?

A survey conducted by market research company Nielsen stated that travelling during rains by road is considered to be one of the worst driving scenarios. Last year, records revealed that there were nearly 569 accidents in Mumbai alone.

Benefits
What are the advantages?

It is different from that of a health insurance as it does not take into consideration age of the insured and their state of health. It covers the insured with an assured sum and not for the monetary value of the damage. Some insurance companies even offer to fund a dependent child's education if the insured dies or suffers permanent disability.

Information
How is the insurance paid?

Personal accident insurance is paid to the policyholder as a fixed lump-sum amount, only if the incident occurs as an accident.
