Respected Experts,
"A" is the registered owner of a car. He took insurance policy during his life time. On demise of "A", vehicle was transferred in the name of son "B" and the same was duly intimated to the insurer.
Recently, car met with an accident and damaged. "B" sought for insurance claim. But insurance company repudiated the claim that the registered owner differs and policy stands in the name of previous owner.
Whether Insurance Company can absolve its liability in the given facts of the case?
Whether B has any remedy?
Pls answer my queries.
Thanks in advance for your valuable opinions.
