Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, which dismissed the consumer complaint filed by Narsingh Ispat Ltd. against Oriental Insurance Company Ltd. The court found that the incident of damage to the appellant's property did not fall within the coverage of the insurance policy, as it was not caused by a fire or other specified perils. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the Commission's ruling.
