After the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA) made the five-year third-party insurance mandatory as against the current coverage for one year, vehicle manufacturers were forced to increase the prices of their products. The decision was taken after the Supreme Court of India passed the judgement that the third party insurance cover for two-wheelers should be compulsory for a period of five years.

The new insurance rules apply to all vehicle manufacturers in the country. The increase in prices in fairly substantial but it covers the five-year insurance premium and thus it's highly unlikely that it will affect the buying decision of a potential customer.
