Home Insurance

Protection for your home and insured belongings against covered risks.

How we help

Home insurance covers the structure of your house, the belongings inside it, or both, against the events listed in the policy, such as fire, flood, earthquake and burglary.

We help you set a sum insured that reflects the cost of rebuilding and of replacing contents, because under-insuring can reduce what a claim pays.

Owners and tenants need different cover. We explain what each policy includes and what it excludes before you choose.

What it covers

  • Building cover where selected
  • Contents cover where selected
  • Policy-specific exclusions apply

Coverage, exclusions, and claim conditions depend on the policy and insurer.

Before you decide

Points to check

  3. 03The events covered and the ones excluded
  4. 04Whether you need an owner's policy or a tenant's
  5. 05The documents a claim will require

Common questions

What people ask us about Home Insurance

Does home insurance cover the value of the land?

No. Cover is for the structure and, if selected, its contents. The land is not damaged by the events a policy covers, so it is not insured.

I rent my home. Can I still buy cover?

Yes. Tenants can insure their contents and belongings. Insuring the structure is the owner's responsibility.

Are jewellery and valuables covered?

Usually only when declared and valued separately, and sometimes up to a limit. We check the policy wording with you.

Shree Sai Insurance is the practice of Amit Dhirajlal Waghela, an AMFI-registered mutual fund distributor (ARN-166386), not a SEBI-registered investment adviser. The firm earns commission from asset management companies on the schemes it distributes, does not charge a fee for distribution, and does not guarantee returns. Insurance is offered separately from the mutual fund distribution business. Mutual fund investments are subject to market risks. Read all scheme related documents carefully.
