Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], September 2: Zurich Kotak General Insurance, an insurer in India explains the importance of timely car insurance renewals. It is easy to overlook important tasks in today’s world we live in. However, timely renewal is not something that should be pushed to the bottom of your to-do list when it comes to car insurance. Timely car insurance renewal is very important for maintaining continuous coverage, protecting policyholder’s financial investment and adhering to the legal requirements as per Motor Vehicle Act, 1988.
Importance of timely car insurance renewals
Let’s explore why renewing car insurance on time is very important and the potential consequences of letting the policy lapse:
Continuous coverage: One of the important reasons for renewing car insurance on time is to maintain continuous coverage. Accidents are unexpected and having a lapse in car insurance can leave policyholders vulnerable to financial losses.
Avoid legal consequences: Driving without third-party insurance as per Motor Vehicle Act, 1988 is illegal in India and can lead to severe penalties. If you’re caught driving without a valid car insurance, you could face fines, license suspension and even imprisonment of up to three months.
Preserving financial stability: Car insurance is not just a legal requirement, it is a financial protection from unforeseen circumstances. The cost associated with car accidents can be high and without car insurance, these costs can be stressful. Renewing car insurance preserves financial stability and protects policyholders from financial implications.
Maintaining No Claim Bonus benefits: Allowing car insurance to lapse can result in the loss of No Claim Bonus benefits, which can increase your overall car insurance costs in the long run. By renewing car insurance on time, policyholders can enjoy the benefits of No Claim Bonus.
To wrap up
For maintaining continuous protection, adhering to legal requirements and avoiding financial risks, timely car insurance renewal is very important. Don’t let your car insurance lapse – set reminders, renew online and stay protected to drive with confidence.
