National Insurance Co.Ltd vs Manju Majumder & Anr

The Supreme Court set aside multiple judgments of the High Court of Assam and Delhi, remanding the matters for fresh consideration on merits, in light of the precedent established in United Insurance Co. Ltd. Vs. Shila Datta & Ors, (2011) 10 SCC 509. The Court emphasized that the issues raised are no longer res integra, thus requiring the High Court to issue appropriate notices and decide the appeals accordingly. The outcome reinstates the appeals for a thorough examination by the High Court.
