HDFC ERGO Secures Recovery from Vehicle Owner

Supreme Court condoned delay and granted leave in appeal filed by HDFC ERGO against N Nagesh & others.
Court found evidence of forged insurance policy, with policy start date altered from 09‑03‑2016 to 02‑03‑2016 to secure coverage.
The appeal is allowed in limited extent, permitting HDFC ERGO to recover the compensation amount from the vehicle owner after paying claimants.
