Automobile insurance is a mandatory requirement for all vehicle owners to drive on Indian roads as per the Motor Vehicles Act 1988. At the least, you need to have third-party car insurance that safeguards other vehicles, people and property against damage caused by accidents involving your car or bike.
Furthermore, driving an uninsured vehicle will attract a fine of Rs 2000 and/or imprisonment of up to three months as a first-time offender. The severity of the fine and punishment increases for repeat offences.
Ideally, you shouldn’t be driving without active motor vehicle insurance. However, if your policy is nearing its expiry date or has lapsed, here’s how to renew car insurance online and stay on the right side of the law.
Minimise delay
Insurance providers offer a 90-day window to renew your policy and hold onto the accumulated benefit after the expiry date. If you haven’t been able to renew your car’s insurance cover in time, do not delay it any further, especially to retain the No Claim Bonus (NCB) accumulated on your policy. An NCB is a discount awarded for every claim-free year of the policy. It starts at 10%, goes up to 50%, and can help reduce the premium cost of motor insurance.
Re-evaluate premiums
The service provider may levy a penalty or revise the premium charges to continue with the existing car insurance. In such a scenario, it would be wise to compare the features and premiums charged by other insurance providers so that you can choose the better deal.
Brace for automobile inspections
Whether you choose to go with the existing insurer or purchase a new policy, your vehicle must undergo a re-inspection before getting the cover. The insurer can send a third-party agent to inspect the car at your registered address. Alternatively, you can take the vehicle to the nearest partner garage or insurance branch for the check. As more and more car insurances are renewed online, insurers now even allow for a self-inspection, wherein car owners can send photos and videos to the company through a digital medium for quicker turnaround times.
