Verdict

A core Section I peril (not an add-on in the standard Indian motor wording — it is part of the base cover). ESSENTIAL — a dated FIR / Daily Diary entry at the local police station naming the event, and (where possible) a newspaper clipping / news-portal screenshot of the event. For mass-event losses, insurer often publishes a circular with simplified processing. Reject if the damage is a single localized scratch with no concurrent FIR naming the event. Depreciation / excess apply normally.

यह standard भारतीय motor wording में core Section I peril है (add-on नहीं — base cover का हिस्सा)। ज़रूरी — स्थानीय थाने में event का नाम लेते हुए dated FIR / Daily Diary entry, और संभव हो तो उस event की newspaper clipping / news-portal screenshot। mass-event losses पर बीमा कंपनी अक्सर simplified processing का circular निकालती है। अगर नुकसान एक ही localized scratch है और उसी event का कोई FIR नहीं — reject। depreciation / excess सामान्य नियम से।

Reference material — verify figures against the current IRDAI master circular and quote the actual policy wording in the report.
