  • Property Insurance

Your business property is one of your most valuable assets, and it needs protection from unexpected events such as fire, earthquake, lightning, storm, cyclone, flood and other natural calamities. A single incident can disrupt operations and cause heavy financial loss. 

Many businesses face problems during claims because they insure their property for less than its actual value. This is called underinsurance, and it reduces the claim amount.

To help you avoid this, GIMA experts guide you in choosing the right sum insured, so you get proper financial support when you need it most.

 Businesses are also expected to comply with statutory requirements, safety norms and licensing regulations. Proper compliance combined with the right insurance cover ensures comprehensive protection for your enterprise.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to select the right Insurance Advisor for Export and Import, Voyage, Clearances, or Claims?

What is Public Liability Insurance?

It is a policy that protects your business if a third person (customer, visitor, vendor, neighbour, etc.) gets injured or their property is damaged because of your business activities.

What documents are a must to file claim?

Who is considered a “third party”?

  • Visitors

  • Customers

  • Delivery personnel

  • Vendors and contractors

  • Neighbours

  • General public


If they suffer injury or property damage due to your business, the policy covers your liability.

Why does my business need Public Liability Insurance?

Accidents can happen anytime. Even a small incident—like a visitor slipping or a machine causing property damage—can result in legal claims.

This policy protects you from legal costs and compensation payments, preventing sudden financial burden.

What types of incidents are covered?

Typical incidents include:

  • Injuries on your premises

  • Damage to someone else’s property

  • Objects falling or machinery malfunction

  • Leakage, fire, smoke or water damage affecting others

  • Accidents during maintenance or repair work


What expenses does the policy pay for?


  • Compensation awarded to the affected third party

  • Medical expenses (if applicable)

  • Legal costs for defending the claim

  • Settlement charges (if approved by insurer)


Does it cover injury to my own employees?

No. Employees are covered under Workmen Compensation or Employee Compensation policies, not under Public Liability.

This policy covers non-employees only.

Does it cover damage to my own property?

No. It only covers damage caused to someone else’s property.

Your own property should be covered separately under a Fire & Property Insurance policy.
