The Oriental Insurance Company Limited vs Pappu Kumar @ Pushap Kumar & Ors. on 28 February, 2014
In view of the above, applying the ratio in the case of Oriental
Insurance Co. Ltd. (supra) and the fact that the appellant- insurance
company has not filed its policy that it was contractually not liable to pay
penalty, it is held that the appellant was liable to pay penalty, and the appeal
is therefore dismissed, leaving the parties to bear their own costs.
