How much premium do I have to pay?

The premium you have to pay varies depending on the type, condition and nature of the use of your machineries and our underwriting requirements.

What is the payment mode and how do I pay the premium?

This is an annual policy and you may pay your premium either by cash, or cheque.

What are some of the key terms and conditions that I should be aware of ?

• Duty of disclosure
