United India Insurance Co. Ltd. vs Sushil Kumar Godara

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, which dismissed the insurer's revision petition regarding a claim under an expired insurance policy. The court emphasized that the insurance policy was not valid due to the expiration of the vehicle's temporary registration, and thus, the insurer was not liable to compensate the respondent. The judgment reinforces the principle that insurance coverage is contingent upon compliance with policy terms and conditions.
