Cashless garages are an important constituent of a vehicle insurance policy. Cashless garages are garages or repair facilities that are authorised by the insurance company to repair a vehicle insured by them. So, if you get your vehicle repairs done from one of the authorised cashless garages, the cashless insurance cover pays for the expenses incurred. You are not liable to pay any money to the garage, and the bill is directly settled by the insurance company. Tata AIG offers more than 6900 network garages for the convenience of cashless repairs and claims. You can choose the one that is nearest to you and get your repairs done. You do not need to file a claim for this.
