What is Two-Wheeler Insurance

Bike insurance or two-wheeler insurance is an insurance policy that covers you against damages to your two-wheeler due to accidents, natural/man-made disasters, fire, and theft. The policy also provides coverage against bike-related third-party liabilities such as damage to another person’s vehicle/property or injuries/death of a third party. You can buy insurance for 2 wheelers to cover motorcycles, scooters, mopeds, etc.

When you buy bike insurance online through our smartphone app or website, you can choose from different bike insurance plans based on your requirements and insure your bike within minutes. Also, you get instant two-wheeler insurance quotes to know the premium and plan your purchase. In the case of a Comprehensive Policy, you can choose a suitable Insured Declared Value (sum insured) from the given range.

Third-party two-wheeler insurance rates are revised in accordance with the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) circular dated 01 June 2022.

Key Features and Benefits of Two wheeler Insurance

Protection against natural disasters

Having your two-wheeler insured will protect you from the expenses incurred due to damage sustained by your vehicle in case of natural disasters like flood and earthquake, to name a few.

Protection against non-natural incidents

Having two-wheeler insurance also covers you against loss and damage due to theft, strike, burglary or war.

Legal liabilities

In case of a third party being involved in an accident with your two-wheeler, there are bound to be legal liabilities. Third-party insurance, which is mandatory with two-wheeler insurance, protects you against any third-party liability arising due to an accident.

Other benefits

Buying a two-wheeler insurance policy and renewing it regularly and on time makes you eligible for specific discounts such as No Claim Bonus (NCB). NCB is the bonus you earn for every claimless year of your insurance. In other words, it is the benefit given by the insurance provider for safe driving and maintenance of your vehicle. At the time of renewal of your two-wheeler insurance, the higher the NCB, the lower will be your insurance premium.

Cashless claim

This is one of the major benefits of having a two-wheeler insurance policy. You can get your damaged two-wheeler at any of the network garages affiliated with your insurance provider. The bills for those repairs will be settled between the garage and the insurance provider. You need not arrange funds for the repairs.

Insurance cover for personal accident

Insurance cover for personal accident has been another regular feature of the two-wheeler insurance policy and it provided coverage for the rider against any injury resulting from an accident. While it is not mandatory to buy this cover with a two-wheeler insurance policy, having this cover is mandatory as per the law. So, it makes sense to avail of this benefit. If you already have a personal accident cover from an existing vehicle, you need not repurchase this cover when you purchase a new two-wheeler.

What is not covered in Two Wheeler Insurance

It is equally important to know what’s not covered in your two-wheeler insurance policy, so that there are no surprises when you make a claim. Here are some such situations:

In the case of a Third-Party or Liability Only Bike Policy, damages to own vehicle won’t be covered.

Your bike insurance won’t cover for you in situations where you were riding drunk or without a valid two-wheeler licence.

If you hold a learner’s licence and were riding your two-wheeler without a valid licence-holder on the pillion seat- then your claim in those situations won’t be covered.

Any damage which a direct result of the accident is not (e.g. after an accident, if the damaged two-wheeler is being used incorrectly and the engine gets damaged, it is considered as consequential damage and it will not be covered)

Any contributory negligence (e.g. damage due to driving a two-wheeler in a flood, which is not recommended as per the manufacturer’s driving manual, will not be covered)

Some situations are covered in add-ons. If you haven’t bought those add-ons, the corresponding situations will not be covered.

Add-on Covers

Two-wheeler insurance add-ons are also usually available which you can buy with your Two-Wheeler insurance policy. Few of them includes

Think of it like an effective anti-ageing cream for your bike and its parts. Usually, the required depreciation amount is always taken in account during claims. However, a zero-depreciation cover ensures no depreciation is taken into consideration, so you get the full value of the cost of repair/replacement during claims.

If you fall into a situation where your bike is stolen or damages beyond repair, this add-on comes in handy. With return to invoice add-on, we will cover the costs of getting you the same, or similar bike- including the road tax and registration fees for the same.

Do you know that the cost of replacing your engine is approximately 40% of its cost? In a standard two-wheeler insurance policy, only damages caused during the accident are covered. However, with this add-on, you can specifically also cover for the life of your vehicle (the engine and gearbox!) for any consequential damages caused post the accident. This could happen due to water regression, leakage of lubricating oil, and undercarriage damages.

Consumable cover adds an additional shield to your two-wheeler. Covers costs for all your bike’s nitty-gritties too, such as the engine oils, screws, nuts and bolts, grease, etc. in a situation of an accident.

The roadside assistance add-on ensures we’ll always be there for you and your two-wheeler in case of any breakdowns. The best part? Asking for our help doesn’t even count as a claim.

This add-on cover is offered only to vehicles fitted with run flat technology. As part of it, the cost of replacing damaged tyres with equivalent or near equivalent to the one being used in the vehicle, labour and wheel balancing charges can be reimbursed. However, claims made under the add-on cover is subject to conditions set forth under the vehicle insurance policy.

This add-on cover, you will be compensated for your transportation cost during the period when two-wheeler is under repair subject to applicable time excess. However, it is applicable only if a claim for accidental damage is admitted under ‘Own Damage’ section of the insurance policy. A policyholder can be compensated in the form of fixed allowance per day or coupons from taxi operators from an amount equal to per day fixed allowance.
