To All Concern Branches
CIRCULAR

If Materials under transit gets damaged due to different reasons, we are supposed to inform the Insurance Company & its our duty to provide required information/data/documents to the Surveyor appointed by the Insurance Company under the transit insurance Policy.

While intimating to the Regional office of the Insurance Company in your City as well as to the transporter, you are required to have  information/documents viz ready with you.

i)             Copy of Invoice/Challan
ii)           Copy of L/R
iii)          Copy of FIR, if lodged
iv)          Photographs taken
v)           Assessment sheet of loss

As mentioned above, a letter must be issued to the transporter alleging him for the losses that incurred during transit; the loss should be quantified properly.  This letter should be receipted with legible seal and signature, if sent by post, then NO COURIERS ARE TO BE USED but only by registered post with A/D (Draft copy of letter annexed as ‘A’).

Further, the letter sent to the local insurance company must contain information about the mishap in brief.   Subsequently, a request to be made to appoint a Surveyor to inspect the damages.  Date, place and time should also be given. Our representative should be present with the Surveyor, helping him to show all the damaged boards and making the exact loss assessment (Draft copy of letter annexed as ‘B’).

From our past experience, it is noticed that due to incomplete papers, we cannot recover our claims in full.  Hence, all are advised to intimate Mr Sachin Talwar at Head Office about all the progress and developments regarding any loss, so that in future we can improve upon recovery levels.


It will be a great help for us in lodging & Settling the claim.
