Summary of MAC.APP. 1095/2014 The Delhi High Court upheld a motor accident claims tribunal's award of ₹1,62,93,344 (increased to ₹1,66,40,254.40) to a 22-year-old victim left in a permanent vegetative state after a rash driving accident. The court rejected the insurance company's challenge to loss of earnings based on ITR evidence and reduced future prospects from 50% to 40% for self-employment; it increased non-pecuniary damages (pain, education loss, amenities, marriage prospects) from ₹3-2 lakhs each to ₹5 lakhs each, recognizing the victim's irreversible life deprivation.
