    Case Summary: RSA/653/2001 Pargan Singh v. Life Insurance Corporation of India The High Court of Punjab and Haryana dismissed Pargan Singh's second appeal challenging LIC's repudiation of his wife's life insurance claim. The court upheld lower court findings that the insured had concealed material facts—she suffered from Hodgkin's Lymphoma and chronic fever before obtaining the policy but falsely declared herself in good health. Additionally, Singh had accepted ₹15,434 as ex gratia settlement, thereby executing a full discharge of LIC's liabilities, which estopped him from subsequently challenging the repudiation. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
