FAQ
Torts fall into three general categories: Intentional torts (e.g., intentionally hitting a person); Negligent torts (e.g., causing an accident by failing to obey traffic rules); and. Strict liability torts (e.g., liability for making and selling defective products - see Products Liability).
Four of them are personal: assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and false imprisonment. The other three are trespass to chattels, trespass to property, and conversion.
Tort law in India is primarily governed by judicial precedent as in other common law jurisdictions, supplemented by statutes governing damages, civil procedure, and codifying common law torts.
There are two elements to establishing causation in respect of tort claims, with the claimant required to demonstrate that: • the defendant's breach in fact resulted in the damage complained of (factual causation) and. • this damage should, as a matter of law, be recoverable from the defendant (legal causation)

From this perspective, to make a claim in tort a claimant must show that they have (or had) a right, exercisable against the defendant, that has been infringed.

The law of torts in India, rooted in the English legal system, is judge-made and lacks codification. In contrast to the U.K. and U.S.A., tort litigation in India is relatively low, influenced by factors like legal awareness and cultural nuances. This non-codified nature allows flexibility but poses challenges.
Negligence Torts This usually involves car accidents, slip and fall accidents, or medical malpractice. To succeed in a negligence claim, you must prove duty, breach, causation, and damages.
