In Brief
The Supreme Court dismissed a special leave petition challenging a High Court order that held an insurer cannot be held liable once there is a breach of the policy's conditions. The Court upheld this principle, relying on earlier Supreme Court precedents, and disapproved a contrary view from a Kerala judgment that had held insurers liable despite policy breaches. The Court affirmed that insurance liability is contingent on compliance with all terms and conditions of the policy.
