Who this helps

Hotel and lodge owners needing property, fire, and guest liability cover.
Restaurant, cafe, and catering business owners covering kitchen fire risk and customer liability.
Hospitality businesses with staff working around kitchen equipment or guest-facing operations.

What you get

Fire and property cover sized to your building, kitchen equipment, and furnishings.
Public liability for guest or customer incidents on your premises — a slip, a food-safety complaint, or property damage claim.
Guidance on Workmen Compensation for kitchen and housekeeping staff, given the physical nature of the work.
Business interruption guidance if a fire or major incident would stop you from operating.

How support works

Step 1 — Describe your property

WhatsApp your property type (hotel/lodge/restaurant/cafe), size, and staff count.
Step 2 — Cover matched to hospitality risk

We size fire, liability, and WC cover to your actual kitchen/guest-facing operations, not a generic shop template.
Step 3 — Policy issued

Clear on what's covered for guest incidents, kitchen fire, and staff injury, so there's no surprise at claim time.

Which of these is you?

Restaurant or cafe owner

You run a food service business with a kitchen and dine-in or takeaway customers.

Kitchen fire risk assessed properly — cooking equipment and LPG usage change your fire load significantly.
Public liability for customer incidents, from a slip on the floor to a food-safety complaint.
Workmen Compensation for kitchen staff, who face real physical risk daily.

WhatsApp — restaurant/cafe cover

Hotel or lodge owner

You run guest accommodation and need broader property and guest-liability cover.

Property cover sized to the building, furnishings, and any in-house dining/kitchen operations.
Guest liability cover for incidents on your premises — injury, property damage, or loss claims.
Staff cover across housekeeping, kitchen, and front-desk roles.

WhatsApp — hotel/lodge cover

After an incident — fire, injury, or claim

A kitchen fire, guest injury, or property incident has already happened.

We check what proof you have and what's still needed before the surveyor or investigator visits.
Guidance on guest/customer liability claims specifically, which have different documentation needs than a standard property claim.
Support through the claim process from report to settlement.

Generic shop policy vs. hospitality-specific cover

A shop policy is built for retail risk; hospitality has a different profile entirely.

What's covered	Generic shop package	Hospitality-specific cover
Kitchen fire load (LPG, cooking equipment)	Often underweighted	Assessed specifically as a major fire-load factor
Guest/customer liability	Basic public liability, if included	Sized to actual footfall and guest-facing exposure
Staff physical risk (kitchen, housekeeping)	Standard WC template	Matched to hospitality-specific roles

What makes hospitality risk different from a standard shop

A few things worth understanding before you buy or renew.

Kitchen operations (LPG, deep fryers, continuous flame) significantly raise your fire load compared to a typical retail shop — this affects both premium and the safety conditions insurers expect.
Guest/customer liability is broader than typical retail public liability — think food safety complaints, slip-and-fall incidents, and property damage or loss claims from guests.
Staff in hospitality (kitchen, housekeeping) face more physical risk day-to-day than office-based roles, which should be reflected in your WC classification.

Common questions before you contact us

📍

I'm 20–30km from Sholavaram — will you serve me?

Yes. Most commercial and vehicle policies can be handled fully via WhatsApp and phone — no visit needed. For site inspections or physical surveys (required by some insurers), we coordinate based on location and policy type. We cover the full 30km belt: Red Hills, Puzhal, Ponneri, Madhavaram, Ambattur, Sriperumbudur, Oragadam corridors and more.

🗣️

Do you speak Tamil? What about Malayalam or English?

Tamil is our primary working language. We also communicate in English and Malayalam. You can WhatsApp in any of these — we'll respond in the language you're comfortable with.

🏭

Do you handle import/export and manufacturing businesses?

Yes. We cover Marine Cargo (goods in transit, import/export shipments), factory and warehouse fire insurance, machinery insurance (CPM), contractor all-risk, and public liability — all common for manufacturing and trading units in the industrial belts around Chennai.

🚛

I have lorries / fleet — do you handle commercial vehicles?

Transport and fleet insurance is one of our core focuses. Single lorry owner, 20-vehicle fleet, goods carriers, trailers — we handle all. We also help with permit and fitness document discipline to avoid claim issues.

🏥

Do you also handle personal insurance — car, bike, health?

Yes. Car, bike, health/mediclaim and LIC policies are handled alongside commercial lines. Many of our clients take personal and commercial policies together.

🏗️

I'm running a construction project — is that covered?

Yes. Contractors All Risk (CAR) and Workmen Compensation (WC) are standard for construction projects. We also cover hired plant/equipment and public liability for contractor sites.

🕒

My policy expired — can I still renew or am I stuck?

You can still renew after expiry, but act fast. The grace window and NCB retention depend on how long the lapse has been. WhatsApp your old policy copy and we'll check what's possible.

🤝

Will you be available after I buy the policy?

Yes. We stay reachable after sale — for claim guidance, renewal reminders, document checks and any questions that come up. We're not a one-time sale office.

Real situations we handle

People reach us with exactly these kinds of situations.

Importing a crane — needed CPM + transit insurance before unloading

The situation

A contractor importing a crane from another state needed Contractors Plant & Machinery (CPM) insurance plus transit coverage. The crane was arriving by trailer and he needed proof of insurance before the transport company would release it.

How we helped

We arranged CPM insurance with the correct sum insured based on invoice value, added transit cover for the movement, and got the certificate issued before the delivery date. Documents were shared on WhatsApp for quick verification at the unloading point.

Fleet of 12 lorries — one had an accident on NH, needed claim filed fast

The situation

A fleet owner with 12 lorries had one vehicle involved in a road accident on the NH belt near Red Hills. The driver was injured, third-party damage was significant, and the police complaint had to be registered. He didn't know what to do first.

How we helped

We guided the immediate steps: FIR copy, hospital records, spot photos, and insurer intimation within 24 hours. We prepared the claim documents in the right order so the surveyor could process without back-and-forth. The claim was settled without unnecessary delays.

Warehouse fire — stock proof was wrong, guided correct documentation

The situation

A warehouse owner near Manali industrial area had a fire incident. When the claim was filed, the insurer found that the stock declaration didn't match the actual stock. The sum insured was also lower than actual value. The claim was at risk of being reduced significantly.

How we helped

We helped reconstruct the stock proof trail (purchase invoices, delivery challans, stock register) and explained the shortfall to the owner. For the renewal, we corrected the sum insured and set up a proper stock declaration discipline so future claims would not face this issue.
