    Summary The Chhattisgarh High Court dismissed the insurance company's appeal seeking exoneration from liability, finding that the company failed to plead or prove that the driver lacked a valid license for heavy vehicles in its written statement, making the belated application for additional evidence inadmissible under Order 41 Rule 27 CPC. The court partly allowed the claimants' appeal, enhancing the motor accident compensation from Rs. 26,57,455 to Rs. 34,33,698 by adding 30% future prospects to the deceased forest guard's annual income as per Supreme Court precedent, with the additional amount carrying 9% interest from the claim filing date.
