    The Bombay High Court partially allowed Reliance General Insurance's appeal from a 2018 Motor Accident Claims Tribunal award, modifying the compensation calculation. The court corrected two computational errors: reducing personal expense deductions from one-fourth to one-third of income (Rs.83,972) and awarding loss of consortium compensation to all three claimants rather than one (Rs.1,44,000). Consequently, total compensation was reduced from Rs.27,15,398 to Rs.25,31,594 with 9% interest, maintaining all other tribunal directions. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
