Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court, while adjudicating an appeal under Section 67 of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, upheld the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission's decision rejecting the insured-appellant's claim for indemnification due to a fire incident. The Court emphasized that the insured-appellant failed to comply with the insurer's request for necessary inspections and documentation, which is crucial for processing claims under the insurance policy. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's ruling.
