J.P. Leasing & Finance Pvt. Ltd., (R.P No.643 / 2005), (2) Punjab Chemical Agency v. National Insurance Company Ltd. (R.P. No.2097), (3) New India Assurance Co. Ltd. v. Sou. Bahrati Rajiv Bankar, (RP No.3294 / 2009) and (4) National Insurance Company // 10 // Ltd. v. Jeetmal, (RP No.3366/2009). There has been a landmark judgment of Hon'ble Apex Court in the matter of National Insurance Company Ltd. v Nitin Khandelwal, IV (2008) CPJ 1 (SC), where the Hon'ble Apex Court held that in the matter of theft of vehicle, breach of conditions of policy was not germane and also held further "the appellant Insurance Company is liable to indemnify the owner of the vehicle when the insurer has obtained comprehensive policy to the loss caused to the insurer. The respondent submitted that even assuming that there was a breach of condition of policy, the appellant Insurance Company ought to have settled the claim on 'non-standard 'basis".

The claim of the complainant was repudiated by the Insurance Company on the ground that stolen was doubtful. The State Commission allowed the appeal and awarded compensation to the complainant and National Commission upheld the finding recorded by the State Commission.

Gian Singh, reported in II (2006) CPJ 83 (NC) = 2006 CTJ 221 // 11 // (CP) ((NCDRC). In that decision of the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC) it has been held that in a case of violation of condition of the policy as to the nature of use of the vehicle, the claim ought to be settled on a non-standard basis. The said decision of the National Commission has been referred to by this Court in the case of National Insurance Company v. Nitin Khandelwal, reported in IV (2008) CPJ 1 (SC) = 2008 (7) SCALE 351. In paragraph 13 of the judgment, in the case of Nitin Khandelwal (supra) this Court held :

"...... The appellant Insurance Company is liable to indemnify the owner of the vehicle when the insurer has obtained comprehensive policy for the loss caused to the insurer. The respondent submitted that even assuming that there was a breach of condition of the insurance policy, the appellant Insurance Company ought to have settled the claim on non-standard basis."

The respondent submitted that even assuming that there was a breach of condition of the insurance policy, the appellant Insurance Company ought to have settled the claim on non standard basis. The Insurance Company cannot repudiate the claim in toto in case of loss of vehicle due to theft.

// 12 //

14. In the facts and circumstances of the case, the real question is whether, according to the contract between the respondent and the appellant, the respondent is required to be indemnified by the appellant. On the basis of the settled legal position, the view taken by the State Commission cannot be faulted and the National Commission has correctly upheld the said order of the State Commission"

Similar question came up for consideration before the National Commission in the matter of United India Insurance Company Limited Vs. Gian Singh (2006) 2 CPJ 83 (NC) wherein it has been held that in case violation of conditions of the policy so as to nature of use of the vehicle, the claim ought to be settled on a non-standard basis.
13. The question whether the insurance company is justified in repudiating the claim of the insured for violation of the terms and conditions of the insurance policy in the case of theft of vehicle came up before the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the matter of National Insurance Company Limited Vs. Nitin Khandelwal (2008) 11 SCC 259, wherein the Hon'ble Supreme Court observed thus :
"In the case in hand, the vehicle has been snatched or stolen. In the case of theft of vehicle breach of condition is not germane. The appellant Insurance Company is liable to indemnify the owner of the vehicle when the insurer has obtained comprehensive policy for the loss caused to the insurer. The respondent submitted that even assuming that there was a breach of condition of the insurance policy, the appellant Insurance Company ought to have settled the claim on non-
// 13 // standard basis. The Insurance Company cannot repudiate the claim in toto in case of loss of vehicle due to theft.
In the instant case, the State Commission allowed the claim only on non-standard basis, which has been upheld by the National Commission. On consideration of the totality of the facts and circumstances in the case, the law seems to be well settled that in case of theft of vehicle, nature of use of the vehicle cannot be looked into and the Insurance Company cannot repudiate the claim on that basis.
In the facts and circumstances of the case, the real question is whether, according to the contract between the respondent and the appellant, the respondent is required to be indemnified by the appellant. On the basis of settled legal position, the view taken by the State Commission cannot be faulted and the National Commission has correctly upheld the said order of the State Commission".

Looking to the judgment of Hon'ble National Commission passed in Mohd. Unis vs. United India Insurance Company Limited (Supra) & Baljeet v. United India Insurance Company Limited (Supra), it appears that the breach was not a fundamental breach and hence the respondent (O.P.) (Insurance Company) was required to pay compensation at least on non-standard basis to the appellant (complainant).

20. In the instant case, the copy of the insurance policy was filed by both the parties. In the insurance policy, the Insured Declared Value (I.D.V.) of the vehicle is mentioned as Rs.32,015/-, but the learned District Forum, has dismissed the complaint of the appellant (complainant) and the District // 14 // Forum should have awarded compensation to the appellant (complainant) on non-standard basis i.e. 75% of the I.D.V. of the vehicle. The I.D.V. of the vehicle is Rs.32,015/- and its 75% comes out to Rs.24,011/-."
