    Case Summary MVC No. 2211/2024 | Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Mysuru The Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal dismissed the insurance company's (New India Assurance Co. Ltd.) application to reject the compensation petition on limitation grounds. The petitioner filed the claim on 30.09.2024 for death compensation from an accident occurring on 08.03.2024—technically exceeding the 6-month statutory limit. However, citing Supreme Court precedent, the court held that since an FIR was registered on the accident date itself (08.03.2024), the police report constitutes the claim petition, making the separate filing date irrelevant for limitation purposes. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
