What is Contractors All Risk Insurance
CAR Insurance: Your Construction Project’s Ultimate Guardian!
Think of CAR insurance as having a security blanket that covers everything from your first pile to final paint job! It’s comprehensive protection for construction works, materials, equipment, and even the neighbor whose wall you accidentally damaged—because construction sites are basically controlled chaos zones.
Whether you’re building a ₹10 crore residential complex or a ₹500 crore metro station, CAR insurance ensures that fires, floods, and “oops” moments don’t bankrupt your construction dreams. It’s like having a time machine that financially fixes construction disasters!
Why Is This Policy Vital for Construction Projects
Because Construction Sites Are Disaster Magnets!
Indian construction projects face ₹12,000 crore annual losses from accidents, weather, and design failures. Projects worth crores can collapse overnight—literally! Under many contracts, CAR insurance is mandatory. It’s the difference between “temporary setback” and “permanent project abandonment.” It’s survival insurance for building India’s infrastructure!

FAQ's
Are design defects covered under CAR insurance?
Design defects themselves aren't covered, but resulting physical damage is! Bad blueprint = your cost, collapse from bad design = covered!
Is the maintenance period automatically included?
No! Maintenance period (typically 12 months post-completion) needs specific inclusion. Handover ≠coverage end!
Are workers' injuries covered under third-party liability?
No! Workers need separate workmen's compensation. Third-party = public, not payroll!
Can CAR cover multiple projects under one policy?
 Each project needs separate CAR coverage. One policy = one project = clear claims!
When should I buy CAR insurance?
Before construction starts! Coverage begins from first activity on site. Start building = start coverage!
Are underground utilities covered if damaged?
Third-party liability covers utility damage claims. Your underground work = material damage section!
