Disclosed subject matter relates to field of telematics that performs a method of correcting velocity of autonomous vehicle to navigate along a planned navigation path. A velocity correcting system may receive a velocity for navigating the autonomous vehicle for a selected segment along the planned navigation path and may identify plurality of values corresponding to current vehicle condition while the autonomous vehicle is navigating along the planned navigation path and may determine a counter angular velocity corresponding to current vehicle condition by comparing the plurality of values with pre-stored values. Finally, velocity is corrected by correlating the velocity with counter angular velocity and provided to navigation module for applying the correction velocity. The present disclosure eliminates need for continuous monitoring and steering angle adjustment to align the autonomous vehicle with planned navigation path, thereby reducing power consumption and minimizing jerks experienced by autonomous vehicle.
