What you pay, and what the government pays

The ring is your share. The government pays the rest of the premium.

Kharif cropsfarmer's share of sum insured
Rabi cropsfarmer's share of sum insured
Commercial & horticulturefarmer's share of sum insured
Livestockfarmer's share of the premium

Ring scale: a full circle is 25%, so small shares stay visible.

Why claims fail

  • Not enrolled before the cut-off, or the premium was not debited
  • Wrong crop, area or survey number, not fixed 2 days before the cut-off
  • Loss not reported within 72 hours, or no geo-tagged photos
  • Loss from something not covered, such as theft or grazing
  • The village's average yield was above the threshold
  • Aadhaar and bank account do not match
  • Livestock: no ear tag, no post-mortem report, or a late report

If your claim is stuck

  1. Helpline 14447 or the insurer's toll-free numberTicket tracked to closure
  2. Block grievance officer7 days
  3. District Grievance Redressal Committee
  4. State Grievance Redressal Committee15 days

Late claims earn you 12% a year from the insurer. For private policies: insurer, then IRDAI Bima Bharosa, then the Insurance Ombudsman.
