Announcing the launch of the new product, Parag Gupta Chief Underwriting Officer, Bharti AXA General Insurance said, “As per industry projections, the two wheeler segment is expected to grow at CAGR of 10-12% till FY 2020. Additionally, as per IRDAI, approximately 75% of two wheelers are either uninsured or have lapsed insurance policies. With the two-wheeler segment poised for growth, coupled with a large consumer base with a break in policy, it’s extremely important to introduce comprehensive two wheeler plans that will encourage riders to not only buy insurance but also renew regularly.
