Diwali is all about lights and celebrations, but bursting crackers sometimes causes car damage or even fire. The big question\u2014will your car insurance cover it? Let\u2019s find out.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n

In India, third-party insurance is mandatory, but it only pays for damage caused to someone else\u2019s vehicle. If your own car catches fire due to crackers, this basic cover won\u2019t help.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

To protect your car, you need a Comprehensive Insurance Policy. These usually cover fire, theft, natural disasters, and accidents. But beware\u2014if negligence is proven (like placing crackers on your car), your claim can be rejected.<\/p>\n

If your car catches fire, immediately inform your insurer via their helpline or app. Take photos\/videos, contact the fire brigade or police, and collect a fire report or FIR if required.<\/p>\n

The insurer will send a surveyor to assess damage. Submit documents like policy copy, RC, driving license, and bills. After deductibles, the company settles your claim\u2014but negligence can still lead to rejection.<\/p>\n
