Plan with precision

Know your numbers before you buy.

Seven calculations our advisors run every day, and a reminder service that does the remembering for you. They update as you type. Indicative, not a quotation: a formal recommendation follows underwriting, but these put you in the right ballpark in seconds.

Enter today's replacement values — not book values — to see the sum insured a fire policy should carry, and what under-insurance would do to a claim under the average clause.

These are indicative estimates from standard advisory formulas, not a quotation or a guarantee of insurability. Your actual cover depends on underwriting, health, occupation and the policy wording. An advisor will refine them with you.

Plain-language answers

Questions you might be
asking before you call us.

What makes RFS different?

Many providers simply sell policies. We assess your risk first and arrange cover second. That shows up in three concrete ways: a recommendation matched to your actual exposure, sector-specific policy wording for industries like mining, chemicals and hospitality, and active claims support that does not end once the policy is issued.

What is the difference between using an advisor and going direct?

Going direct to an insurer leaves you to interpret policy language and handle claims on your own. Working with an experienced advisor like RFS means cover matched to your actual risk, guidance across leading insurers' products, and someone who stays engaged through renewals and claims. That difference matters most when something goes wrong.

How does RFS get paid, and does it influence the advice?

Our recommendations are guided by your risk and your needs, not by sales targets. We are glad to walk you through the options we considered and why we recommended what we did, and where you ask us to, we will document that comparison in full.

What happens if I already have policies in place elsewhere?

We can review your existing programme without any obligation to move it. The output is a written report flagging coverage gaps, redundancies, sub-limit risks and renewal opportunities - the same document we would prepare for an internal audit. If the existing arrangement is sound, we will say so. Where it is not, you decide what to do with the information.

Our Approach

The Threat Environment Has Changed, Your Insurance Programme Should Reflect That

Ransomware attacks targeting Indian businesses increased materially through 2024-2025. The DPDPA, once enforced, creates mandatory breach notification obligations and significant financial penalties for data fiduciaries. A cyber insurance programme is now both a financial and a compliance consideration.

We assess your digital infrastructure, data classifications, third-party vendor dependencies and incident response maturity before approaching the cyber insurance market, risk quality directly affects both terms and premium.
We match your risk profile to insurers with demonstrated claims-paying track records in the Indian market, not simply the broadest policy wording on paper.
Your insurer's breach response panel, forensic investigators, legal counsel and communications advisors, is agreed before an incident, so there is no delay in activation when it matters.

FAQ

Common Questions

Most cyber policies include ransomware and cyber extortion cover, which pays the ransom amount and professional negotiator costs. Conditions typically require prior insurer notification before payment and compliance with applicable law. Payments to sanctioned entities are excluded across all policies.
The Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 requires data fiduciaries to notify the Data Protection Board and affected individuals of a data breach within prescribed timelines. It also creates civil penalty exposure for processing failures. Cyber insurance covers the notification costs, regulatory response expenses and, where insurable, penalty exposure.
First-party cover pays for losses your business suffers directly, data recovery, ransom payments, business interruption and forensic costs. Third-party cover pays your legal liability to individuals or organisations whose data was compromised. Most cyber programmes combine both.
Social engineering fraud, where an employee is deceived into transferring funds, is typically a crime or fidelity cover rather than a cyber cover. Some cyber policies offer a social engineering extension. We ensure your programme addresses both, either within the cyber policy or through a complementary crime policy.
Cyber policies typically include dependent business interruption cover for outages at cloud providers such as AWS, Azure or Google Cloud, subject to a waiting period, usually eight to twelve hours. This extension is increasingly important as businesses migrate critical workloads to cloud infrastructure.

Cyber risk insurance matched to how your business actually operates.

Generic cyber policies are not written for your industry or your data profile. We structure cover that is.
