ICICI Lombard General Insurance

ICICI Lombard General Insurance Co. Ltd., Motor Claims

ICICI Lombard Redefines Motor Claims with a Seamless Digital-First Experience

ICICI Lombard is the leading private general insurance company in the country. The Company offers a comprehensive and well-diversified range of products through multiple distribution channels, including motor, health, crop, fire, personal accident, marine, engineering, and liability insurance. With a legacy of over 2 decades, ICICI Lombard is committed to customer centricity with its brand philosophy of ‘Nibhaye Vaade’.

 Digital Motor Claims:  

In today’s fast-paced digital era, ICICI Lombard has redefined motor insurance claims by moving away from tedious paperwork toward a seamless, app-centric experience. By leveraging the IL Mobile app, the company has transformed a traditionally stressful ordeal into a transparent, DIY process that can be managed entirely from a smartphone.

The Digital Journey:

The digital claim journey is built on speed and simplicity, typically following these stages:

  • Instant Intimation: Instead of waiting to speak to an agent, policyholders can register a claim instantly through the IL Mobile app, website, or even via WhatsApp
  • Video Inspection: This is the crown jewel of their digital offering. It allows users to conduct a self-inspection by recording a live video of the vehicle damage. This eliminates the 24–48 hour wait for a physical surveyor to arrive, enabling “spot approvals” for minor to mid-sized claims.
  • Digital Documentation: Required documents like the RC, Driving License, and FIR (if applicable) are uploaded directly through the app. Artificial Intelligence and OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technologies process these files in real-time, reducing manual errors and verification lag.
  • Real-Time Tracking: Much like tracking a food delivery, the app provides a live dashboard where users can see the status of their claim—from “Surveyor Assigned” to “Settlement Completed.”

Key Advantages

The shift to digital provides significant benefits:

Cashless Convenience: Users can locate the nearest network garage through a built-in GPS locator, ensuring the bill is settled directly between the insurer and the workshop.

Drastic TAT Reduction: The Turnaround Time (TAT) for approvals has dropped from days to mere hours or even minutes for eligible claims.

Transparency: Digital logs ensure every update is recorded, providing a clear trail for the policyholder.

By integrating AI-based automated approvals and video-led assessments, ICICI Lombard has effectively placed the power of claim settlement directly into the hands of the customer.

 The Visionary Behind India’s Travel & Lifestyle Services Ecosystem

Ms. Liberatha Kallat, Chairperson & Managing Director, Dreamfolks Services Limited, is recognized as a pioneer of India’s airport and travel services ecosystem. Since founding the company in 2008, she has led the company with a bold vision and long-term conviction, transforming a fragmented industry into a structured, technology-driven ecosystem that redefines how travel & lifestyle experiences are accessed and delivered.

Her foundation was built in the hospitality industry.

When Liberatha founded DreamFolks in 2008, her vision was both innovative and bold: democratizing access to premium travel and lifestyle services.

What began with airport lounge access gradually evolved into a comprehensive ecosystem of 20+ services – from global lounges and airport transfers to meet-and-assist, spa services, golf, beauty & grooming, healthcare, members-only clubs, visa services, and more. Today, DreamFolks’ footprint spans over 3,000 touchpoints across 100+ countries, reflecting both scale and reach. In FY25 alone, 10.9 million passengers accessed services powered by DreamFolks – a testament to the trust the platform has built across stakeholders and travellers alike.
