The platform offers curated travel plans for family and individuals, corporates and students, with prices starting at INR 552 and covering 198 countries, subject to terms and conditions which may vary from insurers to insurers. The policies provide a wide range of coverage, depending on the plan chosen. However, almost all of them include important covers like loss of passport, emergency medical expenses, flight delay, loss of checked-in baggage, medical evacuation, etc.
Commenting on the launch Mr. Ankit Agrawal, Co-Founder and CEO of InsuranceDekho, said, “In the post-COVID era, Indians are traveling again with international travel growing at 76% YoY which has widened the market for insurance providers.

We are building InsuranceDekho as a one-stop shop for all insurance solutions and diversified investment options; this is one crucial step in that direction.”
