What is a Third-Party Motor Insurance?
A third-party insurance covers any liabilities arising from an individual other than you in case of an accident. So if you were to bump into someone else’s car, your third-party insurance would pay for the damages done to that car. This is a mandatory insurance in India and one cannot legally drive without it.
