Let’s go in deep to know the insurance covers you did not know about:-

1.  Bank Deposits

Fixed deposits of all banks, including foreign banks in India, regional banks and co-operative banks, are insured by the Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC). Under this coverage, each account holder is entitled to get up to Rs 1 lakh coverage, inclusive of principal amount and interest, if the bank is unable to pay the amount due on the FD to the customer due to cancellation of license or merger. However, if the account holder owes any dues to the bank, the amount will be first deducted by DICGC from the payout. The premium cost of the insurance plan will be borne by banks. The types of deposits covered by DICGC are savings and current accounts and fixed and recurring deposits.
