If you possess a two-wheeler, you must be well aware that as per the Motor Vehicle Act 1988, third-party bike insurance is mandatory in India.
But here comes the caveat!
In India, about 75% of the total number of two-wheelers on the road DO NOT have any valid insurance cover. Shocking, right? Well, considering the fact that most riders overlook the significance of insuring their bike when rolling the vehicle out of the showroom, these figures are not that surprising.
