So, Stay Informed about Motor Insurance

What is Motor Insurance?

Motor insurance is an insurance policy that protects vehicle owners from incurring any financial losses that may have arisen due to damages caused to their vehicle. The damages caused to the vehicle could be due to accidents, theft, or any natural or man-made calamity. A motor insurance policy provides coverage to all types of vehicles, whether a private car, two-wheeler, or any commercial vehicle.

Having a motor insurance policy becomes necessary for every vehicle on the road to avoid any financial setbacks due to the damages caused to the vehicle. The insurance company agrees to pay the repairing cost of the damages to your vehicle in return for the regular premium paid towards the motor insurance policy. In case of total loss such as theft or a situation where the damage to your vehicle is beyond repair, the insurance provider pays the entire assured sum of the car.

Motor insurance policy that includes third party liability also pays for any damages caused by your vehicle to the third-party person or property.

There are two types of changes that can be done in a motor insurance policy:

  • Non-monetary changes: This includes correcting the vehicle owner's name, address, or contact details. These changes do not require the policyholder to pay any extra premium.
