In 2019, the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India, also known as IRDA, permitted long-term 2 wheeler insurance policies to have a time window of about three years. There are several benefits, including over 30% discount, no need for annual renewals, no annual checking of the vehicle, and many more.
There are two types of two wheeler insurance plans offered by insurance companies.
Third party insurance: This insures you from all the financial losses you cause to a third-party and their vehicle. This has been made mandatory by the government to take this bike insurance without exception.
Comprehensive insurance: This includes third party insurance, covers two wheelers from accidents, fire, theft, natural calamities and also covers the medical expenses of the person. The comprehensive bike insurance cover doesn’t shield your bike against depreciation (wear and tear with time). You can save the depreciation by choosing a Zero-Depreciation add on.
