Renew car insurance on time to avoid financial loss, here’s how to update your policy online

Car Insurance Renewal: Don’t delay renewing car insurance. It should always be renewed before the due date and try not to lapse the policy. As the policy lapses and the car is damaged (or the car is stolen) then the person has to suffer financial loss.

Insurance companies usually give a grace period of 15 to 30 days from the due date. During this time any person can pay the premium and get the policy renewed. Or if you haven’t renewed the insurance during the grace period, you will need to buy a new car insurance policy.
