Frequently asked questions

How does CGL differ from basic Public Liability?

Basic Public Liability covers premises-only incidents in India. CGL is broader, bundling premises liability, products liability, completed operations, and international territorial jurisdiction.

What is a retroactive date in a claims-made policy?

The retroactive date marks the earliest date from which incidents occurring will be covered, provided the claim is formally made during the active policy period.
