It is only from 31st day that this is covered.
However hospitalization due to accident is covered from 1st day of issue of policy.

Any break in insurance results in issue of Insurance Policy as a New Case and Cooling Off Period applies again. You forgo no claim Bonus benefits also, as now it is a new policy. Therefore it is in your interest
that you should renew the policy well in time. |
