Insurance Claim

Dear All,

Please guide

A = A compnay

B = own a  warehouse

C = Insurance Company.

 

A puts its goods in the ware house of B

B takes the Fire insurance for such goods from C .

B charges insurance primium from A

Goods destroyed by fire. 

C has some objection n the claim filed by B. 

Can A be considered as the party to the insurance claim? 

Insurance compnay is saying that as A is not Insured as per the records he can not claim anything and stopps any correspondence with A. 

 

What can A do...under these circumstances as against B and C?

Please guide.
