Answer: A- No, a surveyor from the insurance company will not pay money and add fraudulent charges against the firm.
A Fire Insurance contract is no different from an insurance contract and thus, these are also the features of a fire insurance contract.
The insured must have an insurable interest in the subject matter of the contract both at the time of taking the policy and at the time of taking the claim for loss or damage.
In this case, the insured must disclose all the material facts such as fire detection and fire fighting equipment, their use, etc. It is a contract of indemnity as the insured can claim only the actual damages from the insurer.
