Case Summary: SLP(C) No. 027745/2009 Mysore Sales International Ltd. v. United India Insurance Co. Ltd. On 06/11/2009, the Supreme Court dismissed multiple connected Special Leave Petitions (including SLP 27745/2009) involving HAL's insured spare parts destroyed in a fire at Bangalore airport in 2000 while in MSIL's custody as customs bonded godown custodian. The Court found that while liability for compensation was undisputed, the only question was burden-sharing between MSIL and the Customs Department. Noting all parties were government entities (MSIL—state government company; HAL, insurer, and Customs Department—central government instrumentalities), the Court expressed surprise at Supreme Court litigation and dismissed the petitions, directing MSIL and the Customs Department to resolve their respective liability through mutual negotiations.
