Frequently asked — Alotau

Who are the AJG principals?
AJG has two founding principals: Vinod Kumar Jain (India Principal) based in Panchkula, Haryana — with 50+ years of experience in pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, and import-export; and Amit Jain (EU Principal) based in Porto, Portugal — a digital generalist holding a D2 Entrepreneur Visa and a PGDip in Global Marketing. Together they cover India-EU, India-UAE, and global trade corridors.
What insurance should I take on India-EU shipments?
Recommended: Institute Cargo Clauses A (ICC-A) — the broadest all-risks marine cargo cover. ICC-A covers all risks of loss or damage except war, strikes, inherent vice, and deliberate damage. For high-value cargo (pharma, gems, electronics): ICC-A plus War Risk cover (separate endorsement) plus Strike, Riots and Civil Commotions (SRCC). Insure for CIF value + 10% (standard practice). Note: CIP Incoterm requires ICC-A minimum; CIF Incoterm only requires ICC-C minimum — always upgrade to ICC-A.
