Wrong insurance details won’t lead to denial of third-party accident claims, rules Jharkhand High Court

In a landmark verdict, the Jharkhand High Court ruled that insurers cannot reject claims solely for incorrect policy details, emphasizing that it is the insurer's duty to find the policy using available information. This decision, highlighted by a case involving Reliance General Insurance, aligns with IRDAI's stance against denying claims in lieu of non-submission of documents initially required during policy issuance.
