What is Suraksha Scheme of HDFC Bank in Car Loan

Hello Rohtash,

HDFC Suraksha scheme in layman terms is an insurance cover on the loan amount.
The Suraksha is a product of HDFC Ergo - the general insurance division of HDFC

To the best of our knowledge - The premium amount is dependent on age and couple of other factors and banks generally fund the Suraksha premium amount.
Typically it ranges at 1% of loan amount (for a person aged 35 years). So say for loan of 4 lac Rs, your EMI will increase approx by Rs. 70 per month across loan tenor for having that Suraksha cover on the loan amount

It covers some clauses wherein in event of mishap - the insurance company i.e Ergo will make the payment to bank
For fine terms, conditions and clauses - pl speak to HDFC Ergo for same

Is this compulsory to take this policy when taking a car loan for a new car from HDFC BANK or is it optional to take

Please reply me asap

It's completely optional but bank sales people force you to take it. I had the same experience with icici recently. They were charging 185 rupees per month for this 'suraksha kavach'. Just tell the person it's your life, your car and you are not interested in this scheme. Don't worry nothing happens to your loan sanctioning. They are just trying to cross sell a product to meet targets. Firmly say no (don't be polite, if needed)and they'll leave you alone.

Hello
First of all thanks for this information, they are including the policy amount plus the loan sanctioned amount and for this i had to pay the extra 9754/- rupees extra for the 6590/- is the pricing of this Car Loan Suraksha program of this so called HDFC BANK. I had opt out to include this amount in loan program but i had to give another cheque of Rs 6590/- favouring HDFC ERGO bucaue they told me without this the bank doesn't sanction the loan.
The bank personals just loosen our pockets for this kind of waste things. If you had any idea about this suraksha program what is for then please let me know....

it covers all kind of death ?
