It is expected from the insured that the information furnished by him is true and correct about the subject matter of insurance. The Insurance company is liable to pay only when the correct information has been furnished to them.
The Insured should have some interest in the object of insurance. Owner of the Car has an insurable interest in Car or owner of the house in the house property.
Insurance indemnifies against the losses suffered due to untoward incident. It will restore the same position as it was before the accident. Insurance is not for making the profit.
The insurance company is liable to pay their part of contribution only. In case, a person obtained two health insurance policies from two companies for Rs 4 lakhs. Then in case of a claim of Rs 4 lakh, each company will pay Rs 2 lakh each, not Rs 4 lakh each.
After payment of a claim, the ownership of the insured property transferred to the insurance company. In case of the total damage of a car, the insurance company gets the ownership of Car after payment of a claim.
It is the responsibility of the insured to minimize the loss in case of any mishappening. In case of fire, insured is expected to take all steps to douse off the fire. He can not simply sit just because he has taken the insurance.
In case of multiple causes of mishappening the nearest cause will be taken into account to decide the liability of the insurance company. In case a car catches fire after meeting an accident. The fire could be taken as a cause of loss.
