How It Works: Indian Home Insurance & Bharat Griha Raksha
Unlike motor insurance, home insurance is not legally mandatory in India. However, following the introduction of the standard Bharat Griha Raksha policy by the IRDAI (Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India), it has become highly standardized and surprisingly affordable.
Structure vs. Content Coverage
A comprehensive home insurance policy is divided into two parts. Structure Insurance covers the physical building against fire, earthquakes, and floods. Importantly, this is calculated based on the reconstruction cost (usually ā¹1,500 to ā¹3,000 per sq. ft.), not the market value of the land. Content Insurance covers your personal belongings (appliances, furniture, jewelry) against theft and damage.
Live Market Premium Estimation
In 2026, the base premium rate for standard property risk in India ranges between ā¹30 to ā¹60 per ā¹1 Lakh of sum assured, depending on the geographical risk zone (e.g., seismic zones) and the age of the property. Older properties attract a higher premium due to structural depreciation risk. A flat 18% GST is applied to the final premium amount.
