For instance, a Third-party Scooter Insurance Plan (Liability-only Policy) will only cover damages to the third-party property and injury/death of a third party, while a Comprehensive Scooter Insurance Plan will offer all the benefits of the Third-party Liability Policy and cover damages to the scooter.

Types of Scooter Insurance Policies on ACKO

Third-party Cover

The Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 states that all scooter owners must buy a bike insurance plan to safeguard financial liabilities related to the scooter with at least a Third-party Liability cover. This plan includes third-party property damage and injuries/death. Third-party scooter insurance also takes care of any legal liabilities arising out of an accident of the insured scooter.

Comprehensive Cover

The Comprehensive Scooter Insurance Policy is exhaustive; it covers damages to the insured scooter along with all the third-party liabilities. Damages due to fire, accident, theft, natural calamities, man-made calamities, total loss (damage beyond repair), etc., are covered under this plan. Even though buying a comprehensive plan is not mandated by the law, it is a good idea to get this coverage as it provides all-around insurance.
