sir,
I took a rent car (white board) from a person and it was hit.When the FIR was put i told the police i borrowed the vehicle so that the insurance can be claimed but then the rentter's mother who was the owner of the car told the insurance people that it was given for rent and so the insurance was cancelled. Now he is fighting with me telling that i have to pay him the whole damage cost.The rental fellow is having my passport with him. If i approach any police or any one to help me do i have a stand?!?!

If you have taken the car on rent against the registered user, then the insurance company would not pay. Legally, you will have to pay for the damages.

Thank you sir for your advice... but can you please tell me about the registered user cause I dont think the rentter is registered.
