Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before creating your document.

Is an Indemnity Bond different from a guarantee under Indian law?+

Yes, an indemnity primarily protects the indemnified party against loss, while a guarantee secures performance of a third party; however, both are recognised under the Indian Contract Act and may coexist in complex transactions.

Does this Indemnity Bond cover third-party claims automatically?+

It does so only if you select that third-party claims are covered; the template then activates extended wording to expressly include suits, actions and demands brought by third parties against the indemnified party.

Is there any legal requirement to cap indemnity liability?+

No, Indian law does not mandate a cap, but commercial parties often negotiate caps and survival periods to balance risk; the template allows you to either leave liability uncapped or specify a monetary cap.

Should this Indemnity Bond be executed on stamp paper?+

Yes, it should be executed on appropriate non-judicial stamp paper or duly e-stamped as per the relevant State stamp legislation because indemnity bonds attract stamp duty.

Can this Indemnity Bond be used alongside a main agreement?+

Yes, this template is designed to be used either as a stand-alone indemnity or in conjunction with a principal agreement, and recitals allow you to cross-reference the underlying contract or transaction.
