Buy Zero Depreciation Two Wheeler Insurance Cover Online

It’s human nature. We all want to protect the things that we love. Especially if it’s your two wheeler and especially if it’s only been a short while since you bought one! Imagine if there was something that could ensure that the things dearest to us always stayed as good as new.

Of course, magic doesn’t exist but in Comprehensive bike insurance, we have something called the zero depreciation cover, and that kind of aims to do something like that. To keep your bike as good as new, as young as it was when you just got it. Think of it as your bike’s very own anti-ageing cream. Don’t get it? Hang on, we’ll explain.

What is Zero Depreciation Bike Insurance?

Before we explain what zero depreciation means, let’s first learn what depreciation means. Depreciation is the decrease in the value of your bike as it gets older. So, if your bike was worth Rs. 1 lakh when it was new and is worth Rs. 50,000 now, Rs. 50,000 is the depreciation you’ve suffered on the bike.

Depreciation is the decrease in the value of your bike as it gets older. So, if your bike was worth Rs. 1 lakh when it was new and is worth Rs. 50,000 now, Rs. 50,000 is the depreciation you’ve suffered on the bike.

But if you have zero dep insurance for your bike, the insurance company will pay almost the entire cost of the parts to be replaced with nothing (zero) deducted for depreciation. In simple words, having a zero-depreciation cover means in the eyes of your insurer, your bike will remain as good as new.
