NOTE

BURGLARY INSURANCE

Differences between theft and burglary

 

Burglary

Theft

1

It involves a break-in through violent or forcible means.

It involves taking someone’s property but does not require the use of force.

2

Burglary focuses more on entering and remaining on properties unlawfully in order to steal property from it/commit a crime.

Theft occurs when someone intentionally takes and carries away, uses, transfers, conceals, or retains possession of movable property of another without the other’s consent

 

HOW BURGLARY INSURANCE IS ARRANGED UNDER BUSINESS OR

PRIVATE PREMISES

The forcible and violent breaking into the premises or out of the premises of

the insured is the keyword to determine whether a loss is insured or it is an

exempted peril (excluding losses due to dishonesty of the employees or

members of the insured household or by trick or by a key whether original

or duplicate).

 

EXCLUSIONS IN BURGLARY INSURANCE

a. Precious gems, jewellery, designs, business plans, among others unless

they are specifically covered.

b. If the insured property is left deserted for a continuous period of 7 days

and 7 nights or more.

c. Damages due to nuclear bombs or weapons, war, invasion,

nationalisation, confiscation by government authorities, strikes, commotion,

riots, and so on.

d. If the insured‘s family member or a staff of the insured was involved in

the burglary.

 e. If the insured property undergoes alterations that increase the inherent

risk.

f. If the ownership rights of the asset have been transferred through a will

or any legal provision.

g. Shoplifting done by the policyholder or his/her family members.

h. Items stolen using duplicate keys of safe or lockers unless they are done

forcibly using violence or by threat.

as fire, glass, marine, plate, and so on.
