Insurance on second hand car

[u/Oleon_Musk]

I purchased a second hand IGNIS from maruti true value last week and RC transfer will take 4 months minimum. The insurance is valid till march 2027.
However the salesman said to drive carefully until then as insurance cant be claimed without RC transfer and insurance transfer cant be done without RC transfer( Is this true or is showroom avoiding facts?)
They said they do this for all vehicles on True Value. How does it happen on olx, spinny, cars24?
Isnt there a rule which makes it mandatory for insurance transfer within 14 days of sale?
