HPCL website states all registered HP GAS consumers (having valid SV) are insured against the outcome of an accident at their registered premises due to LPG. Details are available with all the distributors and Customer Service Cell, In addition, HPCL has also taken a Public Liability Insurance Policy.
Valid SV stands for Valid Subscription Voucher.
The following are few simple tips:
01) Check with your LPG distributor on the requisites for a valid insurance claim.
02)Use only Original accessories which are ISI approved.
03)Request your dealer to do the maintenance check every year.
04)Preserve the maintenance check receipt.
05)In case of death due to explosion of gas cylinder, the victim's family has to appeal in the court demanding compensation
06)Insurance agents said it is very easy to get the claim — informs cops and gas agency, wait for survey by insurance officials and soon you will get the claim amount.
We Indian citizens have to create awareness amongst ourselves. No gas company or insurance company will create awareness. The main challenge in claiming the insurance amount is that the evidence has to be preserved till the survey by insurance officials. In the majority of the households, the scene of an accident is immediately cleaned up so that the routine life can go on.
