New India Assurance Co.

The Court said,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">&#8220;16. An insurance contract, is a species of commercial transactions and must be construed like any other contract to its own terms and by itself. In a contract of insurance, there is requirement of uberrima fides i.e. good faith on the part of the insured. Except that, in other respects, there is no difference between a contract of insurance and any other contract.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">17. The four essentials of a contract of insurance are: (I) the definition of the risk, (ii) the duration of the risk, (iii) the premium, and (iv) the amount of insurance. Since upon issuance of the insurance policy, the insurer undertakes to indemnify the loss suffered by the insured on account of the risks covered by the insurance policy, its terms have to be strictly construed to determine the extent of liability of the insurer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/D9xrabYi\">Read more&#8230;\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Vikram Greentech (I) Ltd. v.
