IMT-7 — Depreciation Waiver on Specific Parts (pre-Zero-Dep era)

IMT-7 — Depreciation Waiver on Specific Parts (pre-Zero-Dep era). The pre-2007 depreciation-waiver endorsement, now largely superseded by the modern. — DigiSurvey.

What it covers क्या कवर होता है

The pre-2007 depreciation-waiver endorsement, now largely superseded by the modern Zero-Depreciation / Nil-Depreciation add-on. IMT-7 waived depreciation on certain fibre-glass, rubber and plastic parts, with specific caveats; some insurers still issue it for policies that pre-date the switch to the modern Nil-Dep add-on.

2007-पूर्व का depreciation-waiver endorsement, आज मुख्यतः आधुनिक Zero-Depreciation / Nil-Depreciation add-on से supersede हो चुका। IMT-7 कुछ fibre-glass, rubber और plastic parts पर depreciation माफ़ करता था, कुछ caveats के साथ; कुछ insurers अभी भी पुराने policies के लिए जारी करते हैं।

Policy wording sample"IMT-7 — Depreciation Waiver on Specified Parts. In consideration of the additional premium charged, it is hereby agreed and declared that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the policy, no depreciation shall be deducted on the parts specified in the attached schedule, up to a maximum of ___% of the sum insured in respect of such parts."

Verdict

SURVEYOR PITFALL — if a modern Zero-Dep add-on is in force, DO NOT additionally apply the IMT-7 depreciation scale; the Zero-Dep add-on supersedes IMT-7 contractually. Check only the newer endorsement. If ONLY IMT-7 is on the policy (no Zero-Dep), apply the IMT-7 scale strictly to the parts covered and use the standard depreciation on others.

SURVEYOR PITFALL — अगर आधुनिक Zero-Dep add-on लागू है, तो IMT-7 depreciation scale अलग से मत लगाओ; Zero-Dep add-on IMT-7 को contractually supersede करता है। सिर्फ़ नये endorsement को देखो। अगर policy पर सिर्फ़ IMT-7 है (कोई Zero-Dep नहीं), IMT-7 scale को covered parts पर strictly लागू करो और बाकी पर standard depreciation।
