    Hon'ble Shri Justice Jitendra Shantilal JainView PDF

    The High Court dismissed IFFCO Tokio's appeal challenging a Rs. 6,84,000 compensation award to dependents of Navsa Tumda, who died in a 2011 car accident caused by rash and negligent driving. The court rejected the insurer's claim that the driver lacked a valid license, finding the insurance company failed to prove this assertion and noting police did not prosecute the driver on licensing grounds. The court held that third-party claimants cannot be penalized for policy breaches between the insurer and insured.
