Maya Devi and Others, Civil Appeal Nos. 15016-15017 of 2024Citation: 2025 LiveLaw (SC) 58 While dismissing an insurance company's appeal against a motor accident compensation award, the Supreme Court reiterated that merely alleging fraud as regards obtaining of an insurance policy is not enough. Rather, it has to be proved by the insurance company by adducing evidence. The Court further observed that policy coverage commences from the time and date specified in the policy document. "The Insurance Company has not been able to prove that it had not received the money/premium prior to the accident and the only stand taken was that the insurance was fraudulently obtained. The law is very clear – fraud vitiates everything, but merely alleging fraud does not amount to proving it.
