BALCONIES COLLAPSED ON BALENO | TOTAL LOSS OR REPAIRABLE?

So this happened this evening around 5:30 PM at our society. Three balconies, one on top of the other, came down together and landed straight on our car, which was parked below. Some work had been going on in the top flat for the past few days.

The car is a 2020 Baleno Sigma 1.2 Petrol, with an IDV of ₹3,27,600.

Damage, as you can see in the photos.

What do you guys think?

Total loss or repairable, honestly?

Anyone dealt with Go Digit for a total loss claim?
How was the settlement process, and how long did
it take?

Should we push for a total loss, or let them repair it if they say it’s repairable?

Has anyone successfully claimed compensation from the society or the flat owner in a situation like this?

Any advice would be really appreciated. Thankfully, everyone is safe. At the end of the day, the car is just a car. 🙏
