Case Summary: MAC 942/2019 The High Court of Chhattisgarh enhanced the motor accident compensation awarded to the family of a 24-year-old deceased from Rs. 4,68,600/- to Rs. 7,91,000/-. The court found the lower tribunal's assessment of the deceased's monthly income (Rs. 6,000) undervalued; using Chhattisgarh Minimum Wages Notification standards for a supervisor position (Rs. 7,500/month), the court recalculated damages including future prospects, loss of consortium, and funeral expenses. The insurance company was directed to pay the enhanced amount within 45 days with 7.5% interest. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
