The Factory Insurance Replacement Cost Review

CURRENT RCN SURVEY ₹27.8 Cr 28 major equipment items individually surveyed
15–20% Approx. machinery price increase
28 Major equipment items surveyed
₹9.3 Cr Current insurance gap

The ₹9.3 crore underinsurance gap

The Pune auto-components manufacturer had insured its factory P&M at ₹18.5 crore based on a 2019 value. The current RCN survey, supported by OEM price lists and distributor quotes, established a replacement cost of ₹27.8 crore after considering machinery price increases, import duty changes and GST recalibration.

In a total fire loss, the company could bear the shortfall directly. The insurance replacement cost certificate enables the premium and insured value to be recalculated on the correct RCN basis.
