 | | New Delhi: A city consumer court has asked Tata Tea Limited, an agent of an overseas insurance company, to pay up Rs 1, 00,000 as compensation to an importer which was forced to accept the meager claim amount after the damage of its consignment. |
 | | The Commission headed by Justice J D Kapoor rejected the contention of Tata Tea Limited, a settling and survey agent of Commercial Union Co. Plc, a Singapore based insurance company, that the complainant was not a consumer as per the law. |
 | | "The objection of the OP (Tata Tea) that the complainant is not a consumer does not hold water as the complainant had obtained the Marine Insurance Policy against the payment of consideration therefore comes well within the definition of consumer," the commission said. |
