    Case Summary: MAC 239/2020 The Chhattisgarh High Court allowed the appeal of the widow and three minor children of Manoj Kumar Puri, enhancing motor accident compensation from Rs. 21,17,500 to Rs. 25,71,500. The court found the lower tribunal had underassessed the deceased's monthly income (Rs. 13,000 vs. Rs. 15,000) and inadequately awarded loss of consortium (Rs. 40,000 vs. Rs. 1,76,000 for four dependents), plus increased loss of estate and funeral expenses. The insurance company must pay the additional Rs. 4,54,000 within 3 months with 9% interest from the original claim date.
