I had a Maruti 800 car, fitted with CNG. It was insured with Bajaj Allianz for last three years. On 27th Oct 2010, while I was on my way back home the car got fire. The car got totally damaged. I took my car to an authorised dealer and submitted required documents with FIR. The surveyor told me that," We will deduct Rs. 15,000/- to 20,000/- out of
the total amount which you will have to bear". I asked him why is that, as my car is fully insured for total amount of Rs. 1,50,000/-. Then why the Rs. 15,000/- to 20,000/-amount is to be deducted by the Insurance company. Why the full amount has not been paid to me?

The above amount would be deducted for excess, plastic and rubber parts. Is your vehicle written off as total loss?

Is your vehicle written off as total loss? The car is not a total loss.
