Bike insurance or two-wheeler insurance is a protective plan that covers financial losses in case your bike gets damaged in an accident, stolen, or affected by natural disasters like floods, earthquakes, or fire. It also includes third-party liability coverage, meaning if your bike accidentally causes harm to someone or damages their property, the insurance will cover the expenses.
Having bike insurance is also legally required in India. Riding without at least a third-party bike insurance policy can lead to penalties, fines, or even legal trouble. With Zurich Kotak General Insurance, you get a reliable two-wheeler insurance policy that provides extensive coverage, so you can ride stress-free.
