Insurers Cannot Rely On Fine Print To Evade Liability: NCDRC

NCDRC ruled that insurers cannot rely on fine print to evade liability. The case involved an insurance claim where the insurer denied liability based on a clause buried in the policy’s fine print. NCDRC ruled that critical exclusions must be clearly communicated to the insured, and insurers cannot rely on obscure or unclear terms to avoid paying claims. This decision strengthens consumer rights in insurance matters, ensuring transparency and fairness in policy agreements.
