Seems like Mr. Anurag covered everything but few things i want to add is mentioned below:

1. Prefer buying insurance policy from a private insurance company like Go digit, Chola MS, Tata AIG, Generali. My reccomendation is Chola MS.
2. At time of renewal always increase the sum-insured by 6%-10%. Sum insured should be more or equal to value of your property insured at time of loss. If sum insured is 90% of value of property at time of loss. you will have 90% of loss assessed by surveyor appointed by insurance company.
3. If you want avoid hassle of having adequate sum insured just buy a insurance policy through a renowned broker company like Go Insure, Unison or Alliance. My recommendation is Go Insure.
4. If u just want a sense of financial security and you dont care about under-insurance deduction. You can renew your policy on same sum-insured.
5. Always have a soft copy of invoices of all properties insured under policy.

Have a great Day
