There are no insurance companies that payout $50 million for $2 million insured amount. What they generally payout is the replacement cost which may include an amount for inconvenience and lost time. There’s nothing impermissible about it.

This may be was an exaggerated example,but if even 1 rupee they give us which we haven’t deposited to them,how can that be halal?And on the other hand if for example i have insured my house and gave money, but nothing happened to house, isn’t it a waste?So in insurance the money of one person goes to the other which he hasn’t earned?

Not really. You insure against a potential future damage. There’s nothing impermissible about it in Islam.

The idea is that the same person will pay his share to help someone else in the future. There’s nothing impermissible about it in Islam either.
