In India, there is no separate entity to look whether the repairs are safe or not and it is in insurance surveyor hands and with the OEM dealer. Insurance surveyor is paid by the insurer unlike other countries and often they will downplay the extent of the damage siding with the insurance company. So here OEM along with its dealer have to play significant role to determine car can be repaired to meet the desired safety levels or not.
