Frequently Asked Questions

Quick, clear answers on motor insurance in India.

Is third-party motor insurance mandatory in India?
Yes. Under the Motor Vehicles Act 1988, third-party liability insurance is mandatory for every vehicle on public roads. Driving without it can result in fines up to ₹2,000 and imprisonment of up to 3 months.
Is zero depreciation cover worth buying?
Yes, for cars under 5 years old. Without it, your insurer deducts depreciation (up to 50% on rubber and plastic parts) from your claim. With zero dep, you get the full repair cost. The add-on typically costs 15–20% more but saves thousands at claim time.
Can I renew expired motor insurance online?
Yes. If your policy has lapsed for less than 90 days, renewal is instant online. Beyond 90 days, a vehicle inspection may be required. Contact Policy Aid for same-day renewal with guidance on inspection requirements.
What documents do I need to buy motor insurance?
You need your vehicle registration certificate (RC), previous policy copy (for renewal), and driving licence. For a new vehicle, the dealer provides the required documents. The entire process is online and takes under 5 minutes.
