Saral Suraksha Bima

knowledge

Saral Suraksha Bima is a health policy designed to provide a lump sum payout to you and your family in case of loss of life or permanent partial/total disablement resulting from an accident.

It covers a wide range of accidents, such as injuries from slips and falls, workplace mishaps and other unforeseen incidents. This plan is particularly suitable for breadwinners or those who contribute significantly to the family income and frequently travel for work.

The IndusInd Saral Suraksha Bima (previously known as Reliance Saral Suraksha Bima) policy provides a lump sum of up to ₹1 crore. This protection starts from day 1 of policy purchase. The policy also covers hospitalisation expenses (over 24 hours) due to an accident, including room rent, ICU stays, specialist fees, hospitalisation under AYUSH treatment, and more.

Overall, the IndusInd Saral Suraksha Bima ensures you and your family remain financially secure in the event of unforeseen accidents that could lead to a loss of income.

What is Saral Suraksha Bima?

Saral Suraksha Bima is a simple personal accident insurance policy that gives you a fixed lump-sum payout if you suffer death or disability due to an accident. It is designed to provide financial support to you or your family after serious accidental injuries, regardless of your income level or age. This policy is regulated by IRDAI and follows a standard structure across all insurers, making it easy to understand, compare, and trust. 

criterio

Is Saral Suraksha Bima an IRDAI-standard policy?

Yes. Saral Suraksha Bima is a standard policy defined by IRDAI, which means all insurance companies in India must offer it with the same coverage, definitions, and benefits. The only differences between insurers are in claim service quality, digital convenience, and customer support, not in the core policy terms. 

criterio

What does IndusInd Saral Suraksha Bima cover?

It provides financial protection against serious accident-related outcomes, including:
Accidental Death – Lump-sum payout to the nominee if the insured dies due to an accident
Permanent Total Disablement (PTD) – Full payout if an accident leads to total and permanent disability
Permanent Partial Disablement (PPD) – Proportionate payout if an accident causes partial permanent disability

criterio

How is Saral Suraksha different from regular health insurance?

Saral Suraksha Bima pays a fixed lump-sum amount after an accident, while health insurance reimburses or settles actual medical bills.
It covers accidents only, not illnesses, and works best as a supporting cover alongside mediclaim—helping with income loss, family expenses, and long-term financial stability after an accident.

Why Should You Buy IndusInd Saral Suraksha Bima?

Recent reports from Nifty 500 companies reported 10,733 workplace injuries in FY23, an 8.5% rise from the previous year. Such mishaps can lead to a loss of income, high medical costs and strained finances for the entire family, making financial support necessary. And that’s where the IndusInd Saral Suraksha Bima policy can help.

If an accident results in death or permanent disability, Saral Suraksha Bima pays a lump-sum amount to the family. This money can immediately support household expenses, loan EMIs and children’s education at a time when income suddenly stops.
When an accident results in injuries that temporarily prevent you from working, this policy helps cover day-to-day expenses. Optional covers like Temporary Total Disablement (TTD) can provide periodic payouts during recovery.
Permanent disabilities often lead to ongoing costs such as rehabilitation, home modifications or other devices. This benefit helps cover these long-term financial needs without draining your savings.
Even when hospital bills are covered by health insurance, accidents bring additional costs like travel, attendant care, or income loss. Saral Suraksha Bima helps bridge this financial gap with accident-linked payouts.

Sum Insured & Premium Options in IndusInd Saral Suraksha Bima

criterio

Saral Suraksha Bima Sum Insured Range

 

From ₹2.5 Lakh Up To ₹1 Crore 

IndusInd Saral Suraksha Bima allows you to choose a sum insured starting from ₹2.5 lakh up to ₹1 crore. This is the amount your family receives if an accident leads to death or permanent disability. 

You can select the cover in small steps (in multiples of ₹50,000), making it easier to match the policy with your income, responsibilities, and lifestyle. 

If you choose a family policy, each member gets their own individual sum insured, instead of sharing one common amount. This ensures that one claim does not reduce protection for others. 

criterio

How Is the Premium for Saral Suraksha Bima Calculated?

Age of the Insured 

Premiums are lower at younger ages and gradually increase as age rises, since the risk of serious injury and recovery time tends to be higher with age. 

Sum Insured Chosen 

A higher sum insured means a higher payout in case of an accident, which also results in a proportionately higher premium. 

Optional Covers Selected 

Adding benefits like temporary total disability (weekly income), accident hospitalisation or education grant increases the premium slightly. 

Occupation Risk Category 

Jobs with higher physical or travel risks (like drivers, construction workers) attract higher premiums than desk-based or low-risk occupations.

Examples to Understand the Saral Suraksha Bima Coverage

criterio

Example 1 – Individual Cover

Consider a 50-year-old individual choosing a ₹5 lakh cover under Saral Suraksha Bima. 

If they also add optional benefits like accidental hospitalisation and an education grant, the premium increases slightly. However, online purchase discounts can reduce the final amount payable. 

This shows how even a small annual premium can secure a meaningful payout for the family during an accident-related emergency. 

criterio

Example 2 – Family Individual Covers

In a family policy, each member is covered separately, so premiums are calculated per person. 

For example, adding a spouse and children increases the total premium, but it also ensures that each family member has their own protection, including child-specific benefits like education support in case of an accident to the earning parent. 

This structure helps families plan protection without compromising coverage for any individual member. 

Disclaimer: Premiums shown are indicative. Actual pricing depends on age, sum insured, occupation risk, optional covers chosen and more.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is Saral Suraksha Bima, and how does it work?

Saral Suraksha Bima is a standard personal accident insurance policy regulated by IRDAI. It provides a lump-sum payout if the insured suffers accidental death or disability. The claim amount is paid based on the severity of the accident and the sum insured chosen, helping families manage income loss and financial stress after accidents.

Who can buy IndusInd Saral Suraksha Bima?

Any individual who meets the age and eligibility criteria can buy IndusInd Saral Suraksha Bima. It is suitable for salaried employees, self-employed professionals, students, homemakers, and frequent travellers. The policy can be purchased by individuals and for family members under individual sum insured options.

What is the minimum and maximum sum insured under Saral Suraksha Bima?

Under IndusInd Saral Suraksha Bima, you can choose a sum insured starting from ₹2.5 lakh and going up to ₹1 crore, depending on your needs and risk profile. The sum insured determines the payout in case of accidental death or disablement and directly impacts the premium.

Does Saral Suraksha Bima cover hospitalisation due to accidents?

Yes, Saral Suraksha Bima can cover hospitalisation expenses due to accidents if you opt for the optional Hospitalisation Expenses Due to Accident add-on. This cover reimburses medical expenses arising from accidental injuries.

Can I buy Saral Suraksha Bima for my family?

Yes, Saral Suraksha Bima can be purchased for your entire family. Members you can cover under the plan include – your spouse, dependent children (3 months to 25 years), parents and parents-in-law. Each family member will get individual coverage with their own sum insured, ensuring everyone is protected separately under the policy. This way, your whole family can have financial security against accidental injuries or death. All claims under the policy are payable in Indian currency only.

How is Saral Suraksha Bima different from my health insurance?

Saral Suraksha Bima pays a fixed lump-sum amount for accidental death or disability, regardless of medical bills. Health insurance, on the other hand, reimburses hospital expenses due to illness or accidents. Saral Suraksha works as an income-protection and compensation cover, complementing your mediclaim policy.

How long does it take to settle a Saral Suraksha Bima claim?

Saral Suraksha Bima claims are usually settled after all required documents are submitted and claim verification is completed. Timelines may vary based on claim complexity, but insurers aim for prompt settlement once documents like FIR, medical reports, and disability certificates (if applicable) are verified.

What is the age limit for Saral Suraksha Bima?

Saral Suraksha Bima is available for all those who fall between 18 years and 70 years of age at entry, with renewals allowed as per policy terms.

Does Saral Suraksha Bima cover injuries from adventure sports?

This policy excludes injuries caused by hazardous or adventure sports unless specifically covered under policy terms. Always review the policy wording to understand the exclusions for risky activities.

I already have life insurance. Why do I need Saral Suraksha Bima?

While life insurance offers financial support to your family in case of your natural or accidental death, Saral Suraksha Bima specifically protects you against accidental injuries and disabilities. It provides compensation for accidental death, permanent or partial disability and related expenses (areas typically not covered by standard life insurance policies).

Does this policy continue to offer coverage after payment of the sum insured?

This policy shall automatically terminate upon the insured person's death or payment of 100% of the sum insured, and renewal of the contract will not be permissible.

Is the coverage under this policy applicable worldwide?

The coverage of Saral Suraksha Bima is worldwide except for the optional cover "Hospitalisation expenses due to accident". This add-on covers medical treatment taken in India only.

Is it necessary to inform IndusInd General if there is a change in my job profile/occupation after taking the policy?

Yes. You need to immediately notify us in writing of any change in your business or occupation.

Is a nomination required under this policy?

Yes, you need to add a nominee when buying the plan so we can make the payout to the nominee in the event of your passing. If you want to change the nominee, you must contact us or communicate this to us in writing. The change will be in effect only when an endorsement of the policy is made.
