Reported in: II(2007)ACC314; 2006ACJ1705

S.R. Nayak, C.J.1. In this appeal where enhancement of compensation is sought, the contention urged by the learned Counsel for the appellants is that on the date of the accident and demise of the deceased, the average age of appellants-claimants was 43.5 years and, therefore, M.A.C.T. ought to have applied multiplier 15 in terms of Second Schedule instead of wrongly applying multiplier 8. It was also contended that the M.A.C.T. is not justified in not awarding any compensation towards loss of filial love and loss to estate. We find force in the contentions.2. There is no controversy between the parties that as on the date of accident, the appellants-claimants were aged 45 and 42 years respectively and, therefore, the average age of the appellants-claimants would come to 43.5 years. In that view of the matter, the M.A.C.T. ought to have applied multiplier 15 in terms of Second Schedule. If we apply multiplier 15, loss of dependency would come to Rs. 3,24,000. Therefore, we award a sum o...
