Insurance
Board has reduced the insurance premium rates for private vehicles.
According to
the Board, the premium rate for private vehicles has been slashed by 25 per
cent for vehicles valued at less than Rs 2 million and those valued over Rs 2 million
will be charged 20 per cent less premium compared to the existing rate.
"The new premium rate will be applicable from February 13," the insurance market regulator said, adding that the reduced premium rate is only applicable to insurance policies that cover loss and damage risks. "It will not be applicable to third party liabilities and vehicles covered under risks group policy."
