The paper initially begins by defining the term “vicarious liability”. Vicarious liability is a case wherein the unlawful behaviour of a third individual is always considered ramblingly accountable by one of the parties. In the cases whereby the person is expected to be accountable for a third person and is negligent in aiding out that obligation and administering that authority, vicarious liability may develop. Further, the paper moves onto discussing about the constituents of vicarious liability along with its exceptions and the perspective of Indian judiciary on the same. An employer may, for example, be found answerable for an employee's unlawful actions, such as victimization or employment discrimination. If an individual uses equipment and vehicles in a reckless or improper fashion that results in harm to properties or personal damages to the company, an employer may still be found answerable. In common, an individual is answerable for his own unlawful activities and no accountability is experienced for the deeds committed by others. That being said, in some conditions, vicarious liability, that is, one party's accountability for the act of another party, may occur.
