Two-wheeler insurance is a motor policy that covers your bike or scooter against accidents, theft, fire and natural disasters, and pays for injuries or damage you cause to others. In India, at least third-party two-wheeler cover is legally mandatory to ride on public roads. Assurmate, an IRDAI-licensed broker, compares plans from 15+ insurers so you get the right cover at a fair price with full claims support.
Two-wheeler insurance protects you financially when something goes wrong with your motorcycle, scooter or moped. A third-party policy covers your legal liability for injuries, death or property damage you cause to other people, which is mandatory under the Motor Vehicles Act. A comprehensive policy adds own-damage cover, paying to repair or replace your own vehicle after accidents, theft, fire, riots or natural calamities.
Most policies also include a personal accident cover for the owner-rider. You can buy long-term third-party plans (commonly up to 5 years for new bikes), choose paperless renewal, and add riders like zero depreciation to boost protection. As a broker, Assurmate helps you weigh cover, price and claim settlement record across insurers rather than pushing a single brand.
Anyone who owns or rides a two-wheeler in India needs this cover. Legally, every bike or scooter on a public road must carry at least valid third-party insurance, so riding without it risks fines, penalty points and impounding. Daily commuters, students, delivery riders, gig-economy workers and families with a second vehicle all benefit from comprehensive cover, which protects against the high costs of theft, accident repairs and natural disasters such as floods. If your two-wheeler is new, on EMI, or simply important to your daily routine, a comprehensive plan with the right add-ons gives you peace of mind and a quicker financial recovery when something goes wrong.
A valid third-party policy keeps you on the right side of the Motor Vehicles Act and avoids fines or your vehicle being impounded.
Comprehensive cover pays for accident, fire, theft and natural-disaster damage, so a single bad day does not become a heavy out-of-pocket expense.

The things people ask us most about this cover.
Yes. Under the Motor Vehicles Act, every two-wheeler on a public road must have at least a valid third-party liability policy. Riding without it can lead to fines, penalty points and your vehicle being impounded.
Third-party cover only pays for injury or damage you cause to others and is the legal minimum. Comprehensive cover adds own-damage protection for your own bike against accidents, theft, fire and natural disasters, plus owner-rider personal accident cover.
Yes. New two-wheelers are commonly issued with long-term third-party cover (often up to 5 years), which saves you the hassle of yearly third-party renewal. Own-damage cover is usually annual and renewed each year. Exact terms vary by insurer and policy wording.
NCB is a discount on your own-damage premium for every claim-free year, which can rise step by step over consecutive years. It rewards safe riding and can lower your renewal cost, and in many cases it can be transferred if you change insurers.
Comprehensive policies cover theft of the insured two-wheeler. You typically need to file a police FIR and submit it along with the keys and documents. Standalone third-party policies do not cover theft of your own vehicle.
