Yes, if you have a bike, it is mandatory to buy bike insurance in India. As per Motor Vehicles Act, it is compulsory for every vehicle owner in India to have a valid third-party insurance policy at least. You can not ride your bike on Indian roads without a valid insurance policy as doing so is a punishable offense. You may have to face legal complications, fines and a 3-month improisnment for not having an insurance policy.

Thus, it is always advisable to buy a bike insurance policy to stay away from all the legal hassles.

Since the value of the bike is more than the cost and they want to give you value of the bike, why not take it?
