Electric bikes are all the rage these days. People have understood the value of reducing their carbon footprint and hence have been looking for greener ways to commute.

The concept of electric bikes in our country is new. Let’s take a look at some upcoming electric bikes in India.

When buying a bike or scooter in India, securing two-wheeler insurance is also crucial as it is mandatory by the Motor Vehicles Act of 1988. It provides financial protection against accidents, theft and damage, safeguarding you and your investment. 

Having bike insurance also saves you from hefty traffic fines, licence suspension and even legal trouble.
