Tata AIG General Insurance ordered to pay over Rs 2.19 lakh by a consumer commission in Visakhapatnam to the owner of a stolen motorcycle after ruling that the insurer's decision to reject the claim solely because the FIR was filed eight days after the theft was arbitrary, legally untenable, and amounted to deficiency in service.
The order, pronounced on 18 July 2026 by the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission-II, Visakhapatnam, settles a dispute that began when a 22-year-old from Visakhapatnam had his cousin's motorcycle stolen while it was parked outside a friend's house during a late-night study session.
