Frequently Asked Questions

Two-Wheeler Insurance FAQs

Answers to common questions about 1st party vs 3rd party coverage, IDV calculation, NCB transfers, and renewal grace periods.

What is the difference between 1st party and 3rd party bike insurance?

1st-party (Comprehensive) covers damage to your own two-wheeler from collisions, theft, fire, and flood damage, along with mandatory 3rd-party protection. 3rd-party insurance covers only legal liabilities for damage or injuries caused to other people or vehicles.

How much does 1 year bike insurance cost for 100cc to 150cc bikes?

Mandatory third-party rates are fixed by IRDAI based on engine capacity (approx ₹538 up to 75cc, ₹714 for 75cc-150cc, and ₹1,366 for 150cc-350cc). Comprehensive premiums also include own-damage cover based on the vehicle's Insured Declared Value (IDV) and accumulated No Claim Bonus discounts.

Can I renew a lapsed bike insurance policy online?

Yes. If your policy has expired for fewer than 90 days, you can renew instantly online without vehicle inspection and retain your accumulated No Claim Bonus (NCB). For longer lapses, insurers may require a quick photo upload of the vehicle before issuing the policy.

What is Zero Depreciation cover for two-wheelers?

Zero Depreciation (Bumper to Bumper) eliminates standard depreciation deductions on replaced plastic, fibre, rubber, and glass parts during accidental repairs, ensuring maximum claim reimbursement.

How can I transfer my No Claim Bonus (NCB) to a new bike?

NCB belongs to you as the rider, not the bike. You can obtain an NCB retention certificate from your previous insurer and transfer your 20% to 50% discount to your new two-wheeler policy.
