Two-wheeler Insurance

Two-wheeler insurance is your vehicle’s unseen superhero. It protects your bike or scooter against real-world villains like unexpected accidents, natural or man‑made calamities, theft, etc. It also protects you when you accidentally cause third-party damages and liabilities. That’s why choosing the best two-wheeler insurance policy helps to ensure your every ride is safe, smooth and hassle-free.

Now that the GST on new bikes below 350 cc has been revised to just 18%, it has become quite affordable to buy a new bike. So when you bring a new ride to your home, safeguard it with ICICI Lombard’s two-wheeler insurance. Our policies are designed to give you complete peace of mind every time you hit the road.

What is Bike Insurance?

Bike insurance or two-wheeler insurance financially protects you and your vehicle from accidental damages or losses. It covers repair or replacement expenses incurred due to unexpected accidents, theft, natural or man-made disasters and more. It also covers you if your bike or scooter accidentally cause damage to someone else’s vehicle or property. Bike insurance also helps you provide financial compensation in case of accidental injuries or death.

All bike owners in India are required to have at least a third-party insurance as per the Motor Vehicles Act. You will have to pay fines and penalties if you ever drive without a valid third-party coverage. Note that it does not cover own damages and its premium rates are based on engine capacity and the Indian Motor Tariff.

The right bike insurance policy helps you enjoy complete protection and peace of mind on every ride. You can choose a comprehensive two-wheeler insurance policy to get coverage for both damages to your own bike and third-party liabilities. You can also enhance your policy by opting for add-ons like zero depreciation, roadside assistance, engine protection, etc.

Two Wheeler Insurance - Security Round The Clock

Quick Summary

Third-party bike insurance is mandatory under the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988.
Personal Accident Cover for Owner-Driver offers a compensation of up to ₹15 lakhs for accidental disability or death.
You can enhance your bike insurance coverage with add-ons like Zero Depreciation, Roadside Assistance, Consumables Cover, etc.

Why Do You Need Bike Insurance?

Every ride comes with a dash of uncertainty - a minor collision, a stolen bike, or damage caused to someone else’s property. A reliable bike insurance helps you deal with these unpleasant situations without draining your savings. Here are the top reasons why you need a bike insurance:

Comprehensive Protection

Repairing a two-wheeler, especially a new bike, can be quite expensive. The best bike insurance plan offers comprehensive coverage against third-party liabilities, accidental damages or loss, theft, fire, personal accidents, malicious activities, natural calamities like flood, earthquake, etc.

Legal Requirement

Riding your bike or scooter without a valid third-party two-wheeler insurance is against the law. For example, you need to pay a ₹2,000 fine and/or face imprisonment for breaching the Motor Vehicles Act 1988 for the first time. Any future offence can attract ₹4000 in fines and/or imprisonment.

Personal Accident Coverage

According to a report from Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, the number of road accidents and fatalities has increased between 2020 and 2024. A two-wheeler policy with a personal accident coverage of up to ₹15 lakhs helps you and your dependents deal with accidental disabilities or loss of life.

Enhanced Coverage

While a third-party coverage is mandatory, you can enhance your own damage coverage by opting for add-ons. You can choose add-ons that protect your NCB, bike’s engine, tyre/rim, etc. You can also opt for covers like zero depreciation, consumables cover or roadside assistance and more for enhanced protection.

Who Should Buy Two-Wheeler Insurance?

Two-wheeler insurance is essential for anyone who owns or rides a bike or scooter in India.

New Bike Owners

All new bike owners should opt for comprehensive bike insurance policy, which covers both third-party liabilities and own damage. This helps to ensure they fulfil a mandatory requirement whilst enjoying a well-rounded protection.

Daily Commuters

The risk of accidental damage is particularly high when you use your vehicle for daily commute. Why? Because you are regularly exposed to unpredictable road conditions and weather changes. This makes having a bike insurance quite important.

Occasional Riders

Are you someone who takes out your bike only on weekends, for errands, or during road trips? If yes, then you also need motorcycle insurance as accidents can happen anytime. The best bike insurance can help you deal with the unexpected with ease.

Which Types of Two-Wheelers Can Be Insured with ICICI Lombard?

ICICI Lombard offers coverage to almost every type of two-wheelers available in the Indian market. You can choose the ideal two-wheeler insurance based on your vehicle and riding style.

Bikes

You can insure all kinds of bike models, be it basic motorcycles or sports bikes. A comprehensive bike insurance will protect your beloved bike against accidents, natural calamities, theft and more.

Scooters

You can buy scooter insurance to secure both geared and gearless scooters. Scooters, which are among most popular choices for city travel or daily errands, requires reliable coverage for those everyday road risks.

Electric Bikes

Electric bikes are gaining popularity for their eco-friendliness. Just like their conventional counterparts, these two-wheelers also require a valid electric bike insurance that protects them against third-party liabilities and own damages.

Mopeds

These lightweight bikes with 50-100cc engines are a popular choice among small businesses and logistics operators for short-distance commuting and quick deliveries. With their growing presence on the road, these two-wheelers need a reliable bike insurance.

What Are the Different Types of Two-Wheeler Insurance?

Third-party Two-wheeler Insurance

This insurance covers third-party property damages, bodily injuries and even death caused by your insured two-wheeler. It helps cover legal liabilities arising due to such damages. A third-party two-wheeler insurance, which is the most basic form of bike insurance, is mandatory under the Motor Vehicles Act 1988. However, it does not cover damage to your own bike.

View Plan

Own Damage Two-wheeler Insurance

A standalone own damage two-wheeler insurance protects your bike or scooter against accidental damages, fire, theft, malicious activities, natural calamities, etc. Unlike third-party insurance, this policy focuses on your bike's repair or replacement costs. You can further enhance your own damage coverage with add-ons like zero depreciation, roadside assistance, consumables cover, etc.

View Plan

Comprehensive Two-wheeler Insurance

A comprehensive two-wheeler insurance or two-wheeler package insurance policy combines a third-party insurance and own damage insurance to offer a 360-degree coverage. In simple terms, it offers coverage for third-party liabilities, own damage, and the damage your bike suffers from accidents, theft, vandalism, etc.

Cashless Repairs

What are the Key Add-ons Available in Bike Insurance?

Here are some add-ons you can add to your two-wheeler insurance policy from ICICI Lombard, along with their benefits.

IL Smart Assist

This add-on is specially designed to offer enhanced on-road support and convenience services. Some of the key services include towing, battery jumpstart, flat tyre replacement, etc.

Zero Depreciation

With this cover, you get the maximum claim amount without any deductions for depreciation on your bike’s parts. The zero depreciation cover in bike applies only if your claim is for loss or damage to the vehicle.

Engine Protect Plus

This add-on protects your bike’s engine parts and gearbox parts against damages caused due to water ingress or oil leakage. It will not cover added damage caused by delayed intimation or late removal from a waterlogged area.

Key Protect

Garage Cash

Under this add-on, you get daily allowance if your bike is under repair at a garage for a specified number of days. You may also get a lump-sum amount if your bike is declared as total loss/constructive total loss/cash loss.

Note: Kindly go through the policy wordings for detailed information about different two-wheeler add-ons offered by ICICI Lombard. You can check the complete list of add-on covers in this document.

What is Zero Depreciation in Bike Insurance?

Zero depreciation, also known as nil depreciation, is an add-on cover that offsets the depreciation deductions on your bike or scooter’s parts. Normally, insurers charge a deduction on replaced parts based on their material. For example, plastic parts, tyres, tubes and batteries attract up to 50% depreciation while fibre glass components see around 30% depreciation.

Your bike depreciation also depends on its age. Here’s a breakdown of the same:

Bike Age	Percentage of Depreciation
Less than 6 months	0%
More than 6 months but less than 1 year	5%
More than 1 year but less than 2 years	10%
More than 2 years but less than 3 years	15%
More than 3 years but less than 4 years	25%
More than 4 years but less than 5 years	35%
More than 5 years but less than 10 years	40%
More than 10 years	50%

Our zero depreciation add-on is ideal for people who have recently purchased a new bike, own a luxury two-wheeler, stay in metro cities or accident-prone areas, and looking for stronger financial protection. Note that this add-on is available at nominal extra premium.

What is IDV in Bike Insurance?

IDV or Insured Declared Value is the maximum amount your insurer will pay if your bike is stolen or completely damaged beyond repair. It is your bike's current market value, excluding depreciation. In simple terms, it's the amount you will get if your bike is lost or destroyed.

IDV is calculated based on your bike’s ex-showroom price minus depreciation. So the older your bike gets, the lower would be its IDV. Suppose your bike’s ex-showroom price is ₹120,000. Its IDV would be around ₹102,000 and ₹100,000 after one year depending upon the applicable depreciation rate.

Here’s the depreciation schedule for fixing your bike’s IDV:

Bike Age	% of Depreciation For Fixing IDV
Not exceeding 6 months	5%
Exceeding 6 months but not exceeding 1 year	15%
Exceeding 1 year but not exceeding 2 years	20%
Exceeding 2 years but not exceeding 3 years	30%
Exceeding 3 years but not exceeding 4 years	40%
Exceeding 4 years but not exceeding 5 years	50%

Note that IDV for bikes aged over five years and obsolete models is calculated based on mutual understanding between the insurer and the insured.

Which Factors Impact the IDV?

Age of the Bike

Age is the biggest factor affecting IDV. The value of your bike depreciates as your bike gets older. The older the bike, the lower its IDV.

Bike’s Market Value

Your bike’s market value is determined by its make, model and variant. Premium bikes or models with higher market demand typically have a higher IDV than regular bikes.

Modifications Done

Any approved additional accessories fitted to your bike may also influence the IDV. Note that these modifications need to be declared and included in the bike insurance policy.

Depreciation Rates

Your bike's value depreciates yearly based on a standard depreciation rate. The older the bike, the higher the depreciation, which lowers the IDV.

What is NCB in Bike Insurance?

NCB or No Claim Bonus is a reward your insurer offers for not making any claims during the policy period. You earn a discount on your bike insurance premium for every claim-free year. You can easily claim this discount while renewing your policy.

Here are the different NCB slabs for two-wheelers:

Scenario	Discount Percentage (Applicable Only on Own Damage Premium)
No claims in the first year	20%
No claims in two consecutive years	25%
No claims in three consecutive years	35%
No claims in four consecutive years	45%
No claims in five consecutive years	50%

As highlighted above, NCB offers discount on the own damage component of your bike insurance premium. Let’s understand this with an example. Suppose your own damage premium is ₹4000 and you have an NCB of 25%. Your NCB discount amount will be ₹1000, which is 25% of ₹4000. Note that NCB is not applicable on third-party premiums.

Which Factors Affect Two-Wheeler Insurance Premium?

Policy Type

The type of policy you choose directly affects your premium. While third-party insurance is quite affordable, an own damage or comprehensive bike insurance offers wider protection.

Engine’s Cubic Capacity

Your bike insurance premium depends on your vehicle’s cubic capacity (CC). A higher CC model usually has a higher premium and vice versa.

Bike’s Age & Model

Newer and premium bike models usually have higher IDV, which increases the premium. As your bike ages, its IDV lowers and the premium may depend on its condition and resale value.

Bike Modifications

Any modifications that alter the bike’s performance or appearance can increase the IDV and impact the calculation of your bike insurance premium.

No Claim Bonus (NCB)

While frequent claims can lead to higher premiums, you earn a NCB discount for riding safely and not making a claim during a policy year.

Add-ons

Opting for optional covers such as zero depreciation, engine protect, or roadside assistance increase your premium but also enhance bike insurance coverage.

How to Calculate Two-Wheeler Insurance Premium Online?

Your bike insurance premium is calculated using a digital premium calculator available on the insurer’s website. The premium depends on factors such as your bike’s age and model, engine’s cubic capacity, IDV, type of coverage and add-on selected, and registration location. Here’s how you can calculate your bike insurance premium:

STEP 1

Enter your two-wheeler details, including registration number.

STEP 2

Choose the coverage and add-ons you want.

STEP 3

You will know premiums instantly.

How to Save on Bike Insurance Premium?

Compare Plans Online: Don’t settle for the first quote. Comparing different bike insurance plans online allows you to find the best coverage at an attractive price.
Choose Right IDV: Know your bike’s correct market value before selecting the Insured Declared Value (IDV). A lower IDV may reduce your premium.
Claim NCB: Being a responsible driver reduces the chances of making a claim and availing of the benefits of NCB in bike insurance. Use it to your advantage to save on premiums.
Opt for Voluntary Deductible: You can opt for a higher voluntary deductible to reduce your bike insurance premium.
Renew on Time: Renew your bike insurance online on time to avoid policy lapse and protect your accumulated NCB.

One accident can cost more than a year of insurance.

Bike Insurance Price for Different Two-Wheelers

Different bike insurance policies have different premiums. This is mainly because they depend on various factors such as bike’s make and model, IDV, coverage type, add-ons, claims history, location and more. However, the cost of a third-party bike insurance plan is uniform and regulated by the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI). This table shows the latest price of third-party bike insurance plans:

Bike’s cubic capacity	One-year Third-party Insurance Premium	Five-year Third-party Insurance Premium
Less than 75 CC	₹538	₹2,901
75 to 150 CC	₹714	₹3,851
150 - 350 CC	₹1,366	₹7,365
Greater than 350 CC	₹2,804	₹15,117

How to Effectively Compare Bike Insurance Premium?

Comparing bike insurance premiums online isn’t about choosing the lowest price. It’s about getting the right coverage at the right value. Here are some tips to effectively compare your bike insurance premium:

Compare Plans Online: The first step is comparing bike insurance plans online. A third-party coverage is cheaper, but a comprehensive bike insurance covers both third-party liabilities and own damage.
Check IDV: Pay special attention to IDVs offered across different bike insurance quotes. A lower IDV reduces premium but also lowers your claim payout in case of theft or total loss.
Review Coverage Details: Carefully go through the policy inclusions and exclusions to understand what’s covered and what’s not covered. Some policies may appear cheaper but offer limited benefits.
Evaluate Add-ons: There are multiple add-on options available in the market to improve your bike insurance coverage. However, they attract additional premium. Evaluate your needs and select the ones that actually add value to your coverage.
Compare Deductibles: Opting for a higher voluntary deductible lowers your payable premium but increases your out-of-pocket expense during a bike insurance claim.
Review Premium Break-Up: Your premium is made up of multiple components like your own damage premium, your third-party liability premium, add-on premium, personal accident coverage premium, etc. Review your premium break-up before selecting a policy.
