Product liability:

As a manufacturer supplying products, you are always susceptible to the possibility that
your product could cause damage to a third party either property or a person. A small
defect could open up to massive claims. In such a case, Shriram Generals Product
Liability Insurance is vitally important for product manufacturers. The policy not only

9
protects your organisation from claims but also covers legal costs associated with
defending these claims against your organisation.

COVERAGES
The policy covers all sums (including defence costs) which the insured becomes legally
liable to pay as damages as a consequence of:

 Accidental death/bodily injury or disease to any third party;


 Accidental damage to property belonging to a third party;

Arising out of any defect in the product manufactured by the insured and specifically
mentioned in the policy after such product has left the insureds premises. Coverage is
written on a claims made basis, i.e. a liability policy that provides coverage for an
injury or loss if the claim is first reported or filed during the policy period. However,
the policy offers the benefit of retroactive date, i.e. a date stipulated in a claims-made
liability policy declarations section as the first date of incidents covered by the policy.
The retroactive date is designed to provide coverage for claims resulting from
incidents that take place prior to the current policy term. Renewal claims-made
policies usually have the retroactive date of the first policy issued to the insured.
When this is not done, there is a gap in coverage.

ADD-ON COVERS

 a) Technical Collaborators Inclusion Clause: This policy may be extended to


include the legal liability of Collaborator with respect to the technical

10

covered under the Products Liability Policy by charging an additional premium.
 c) North American Jurisdiction Extension Clause: The Policy may be
extended to cover for the indemnity to be granted in respect of any judgement,
award or settlement made within countries which operate under the laws of the
United States of America or Canada (or to any order made anywhere in the
