What is JCB or Backhoe Loader Insurance?

JCB insurance or backhoe loader insurance is a commercial vehicle insurance policy that covers heavy construction JCB machines and equipment used in industries like construction, agriculture and mining.

Under any unforeseen damage or loss to the vehicle, such as accidents, theft, natural calamities, and third-party liability, etc., this comprehensive insurance policy provides financial coverage. The coverage you’ll receive will depend on the add-ons you choose along with this policy.

You can avail this benefit by paying an affordable premium and ensure your peace of mind.

Note: JCB Insurance in Commercial Vehicles has been filed as Digit Commercial Vehicle Package Policy - Miscellaneous & Special Types of Vehicle

UIN Number: IRDAN158RP0003V01201819.

Why Do You Need JCB Insurance?

As a JCB owner you should have a backhoe loader insurance due to the following reasons:

  1. It is mandatory by law to have at least a Liability Only policy to protect a third party against any damage and losses that could be caused by your backhoe loader.
  2. A JCB insurance policy will protect you from any unexpected losses incurred due to unforeseen circumstances.
  3. Since heavy machinery like JCB works in riskier conditions and is more prone to damage, any mishap can lead to a massive loss of investment. Thus, securing it with a standard policy can protect you financially in such situations.
  4. As per your chosen JCB policy, you can get insurance as per the current replacement value of the machinery. 
  5. You can also get coverage for both partial and total damage to the equipment, depending on whether you buy a comprehensive policy.

What’s Not Covered?

It is equally important to know what’s not covered in your JCB insurance policy so that there are no surprises when you make a claim. Here are some such situations:

Own Damages for Third-Party Policy holder

If you’re only going to go for a Third-Party Commercial Insurance for your commercial vehicle, then own damages and losses won’t be covered. 

Drunk Driving, or Driving Without a valid License

If during a claim, the driver-owner is found to be driving the insured vehicle without a valid driver’s license or under the influence of alcohol then the claim can’t be approved.

Contributory Negligences

Any damages or losses caused to the heavy-duty vehicle due to contributory negligence won’t be covered for. For example, if there are existing floods in the city, and one still takes the tractor out. 

Consequential Damages

Any damages or losses that aren’t a direct result of an accident, natural calamity or fire can’t be covered for.

Types of JCB Insurance Plans and Coverages

Based on the type of heavy-duty vehicle and number of JCBs you want to insure, we offer two primary plans you can choose from.

1. Comprehensive or Standard Package Plan

A Comprehensive commercial vehicle insurance plan covers your own JCB vehicle as well as damage or injury to third-parties due to your vehicle. With a comprehensive plan you get enhanced protection against injuries, damage, natural disasters, and theft. 

The comprehensive policy also allows you to further widen your coverage by opting for suitable add-on covers.

2. Third-party or Liability Only Plan

Third-party liability insurance for commercial vehicles offers coverage to your JCB against damage, loss or injury to only third-party property or person due to your vehicle. It is mandatory in India to have at least a third-party insurance policy. 

Also, no add-ons are available with this policy and JCB third-party insurance price is already fixed by IRDAI depending on various factors.
