The contract of indemnity under English Law covers liability arises by the Act of :
Answer: D
Under English law, indemnity covers all of the above.
Section 124 of the Indian Contract Act defines a contract of indemnity narrowly: a promise to save the other from loss caused by the conduct of the promisor himself or of any other person. English law is wider. An indemnity there covers loss however caused, whether by the promisor's act, by a third party, or by an accident or event not caused by any person, such as an act of God (vis major). That is why a contract of insurance is an indemnity in English law.
So each of the first three options states only part of the English position.
