Secure Your Vehicle and Yourself from Risks with Two-Wheeler insurance

twowheeler-image

Two-wheeler insurance or bike insurance provides financial cover against any damages or losses that you face, which are caused by accidents, theft, and even natural disasters. Two-wheeler insurance also protects the insured vehicle and its owner from any third-party liabilities if it is ever involved in an accident causing injury to any person or causes damage to another vehicle, or property of others.


Bike insurance is mandatory for owners of two-wheelers in India. Without motorcycle insurance, you could end up paying a hefty fine, face imprisonment for up to 3 months, or both. Even unintentional losses caused to third-parties may be payable.


Your bike insurance policy protects you from having to cover these third-party costs such as loss to property and medical expenses. Bike insurance is also essential as it provides financial security for your vehicle. If your vehicle is damaged without bike insurance, then the costs associated with repairs have to be paid by you.


In case of the untimely demise of a third-party, the compensation payable to the surviving members of the deceased person's family would also have to be borne by you if you do not have any two-wheeler insurance.

Why Two-Wheeler Insurance?

Two-wheelers offer an affordable means of personal transport for people to commute in cities, towns, and even villages. In areas where travelling via cars or buses is a challenge due to harsh road conditions, it makes sense to own a two-wheeler. They are also incredibly economical and easy on the pocket when compared to cars. However, getting two-wheeler insurance is mandatory under The Motor Vehicles Act.

Apart from the third party liability insurance being mandatory, there are many reasons why you should have two wheeler insurance if you own a motorcycle or bike. This kind of insurance protects your asset – the vehicle if any damage occurs during accidents. It also protects others via third party protection, compensation to the affected parties, and even helps when property owned by others has been damaged. Bike insurance ensures that you have peace of mind always.

What is IDV?

The insured declared value (IDV) of motorcycles, bikes, and scooters is the sum insured coverage provided as part of the bike insurance policy.

This amount is also adjusted for depreciation.

IDV represents the current market value of your motor vehicle. When a claim is made, this is the maximum amount that can be expected by the insured party.

Understanding Third-Party Liability

In India, it is mandatory to have at least third-party insurance cover, to protect against damage caused to others or their property in case of an accident. Third-party insurance cover is one of the main types of bike insurance available in the country. It protects the insured party from legal liabilities associated with the death/disability to third parties. Motorcycle insurance also secures the insured party against damage or loss caused to property. These policies also provide personal accident coverage for the insured party. There is no payout under third party cover when the motorcycle is lost, stolen, or damaged.

  • With effect from September 2018, the sum insured is now increased to Rs.15 lakh, rather than the original Rs.1 lakh.
  • Third-party liability for new vehicles is mandatory for a term of at least 5 years. Personal accident cover can be availed for a minimum of 1 year to a maximum of five years.
  • Personal accident coverage for the insured party is payable regardless of the vehicle in use at the time of the claim. So for people with more than one vehicle, motorcycle insurance, which includes personal accident cover, would automatically be in effect in case of accidents, regardless of the vehicle they were using at the time.

Comprehensive motorcycle insurance policies are different, ad cover the liabilities covered by third party insurance while also offering additional protection to the two-wheelers and the insured party.

  • Premium rate hike protection - where insurance charges do not rise dramatically
