Iffco Tokio General Insurance Co Ltd vs Vandnaben Harshadbhai Ratani Thacker on 31 August, 2021

In the case of National Insurance Company Limited Vs. Ratani and Ors. rendered in Civil Application No. 7399 of 2008 the victim of the accident was traveling in the truck as a gratuitous passenger and therefore, the Apex Court viewed that the Insurance Company would not be liable to pay the compensation to the claimants. The effect of the provisions contained in Section 147 with respect to the persons other than the owner of the goods or his authorized representative would remain in the same. Although the owner of the goods or his authorized representative would now be covered under the policy of insurance company and in respect of goods vehicle, it was never the intention of the legislator to provide that the liability of the insurer with respect to the passengers as especially gratuitous passengers, who were neither contemplated at the time of contract of insurance was entered into nor was any premium paid to the extent of benefit of insurance to such category of people. Therefore, in the facts and circumstances of the present case, this Court has no hesitation to hold that the claimants were traveling in the tempo as gratuitous passengers and in that view of the matter the appellant herein would not be liable to pay an amount of compensation.
