Depending on the state of health you can buy from visitorscoverage.com or Insubuy . I have heard lot of complaints about India bought insurance when it comes to claims

Are they moving here or coming to visit? If they're coming to visit, ask them to get one from India itself. Much cheaper

Yeah just visiting. Yep. I am looking for Indian travel insurance. Hence the ask.

^ I visited this site, the names were shady AF and well expensive too.

Visitorscoverage is the one I used. Cheaper than India. Also one of my friend had to use the insurance for his dad. The insurance was from India. It was a big hassle to claim. So I always buy from visitorscoverage

Buy insurance from India only if they will do cashless. Visitors coverage is a good but expensive option. None of them cover pre existing. Some high cost Visitors coverage plans do cover hospitalization to some extent.

Gid forbid if there's a hospitalization, make sure your/spouse's name does not appear anywhere as person financially responsible.

I meant to say some high cost Visitors coverage plans cover critical hospitalization for preexisting.

To some extent. Sorry for the multiple posts!

Thanks guys!

Do you know any insurance broker in India? They are vendor agnostic and can advice on the best deal. I have routinely used one for last 7-8 years with very good results

I don't actually.

HDFC has some good plans. My parents get that whenever they visit.

We used insubuy. Challenge is after 70 when coverage for acute onset of pre existing conditions I.e. A heart attack stops!

Just giving a bit of Gyan to fellow fishers

Please please do not ever use CTC comparison between current and next company. If you get an offer, do an in hand calculation. Some companies add Retirals like Employer PF, Gratuity along with Insurance, furniture allowance as part of your CTC. Others don't. Sone also have higher variable package. So when you do a CTC delta you may get a 20% hike but when you discount the above things you will fall short and may end up making less. So choose wisely.
