First party car Insurance

5 years ago

I planned to sell my car as I wanted to buy a new one hence this was listed on OLX . I did find a buyer who agreed to pay 4.25lakhs for the car on a mutual agreement .The buyer agreed to pay 1 lakh on advance and the rest of the money after i give him all the transfer docs.I had to get the NOC from Madikeri RTO and the hypothication cancelled ,while waiting for the RTO transfer docs unfortunately my car met with an accident and the car was being driven by the buyers brother around April 12th. Now I have given a complete explanation to the claim officer at hdfc ergo who said I may not get the complete idv value of the car and might get only 70% of the idv. I am extremely dissatisfied with the time taken by hdfc and also the with the settlement amount that has been advised by the claim officer. Please let me know if I can take any action on hdfc .
