Case Summary: OP(MV) No. 970/2021 The Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Kollam awarded ₹5,37,500 to the daughters of deceased Sarojini, who died from injuries sustained in an ambulance accident on January 8, 2020. The tribunal rejected the insurance company's argument that the claim was unmaintainable based on the deceased's income exceeding ₹40,000 annually, holding that the 2018 amendments to Section 163-A of the Motor Vehicles Act eliminated income and age restrictions. The insurer (National Insurance Co.) was directed to pay the compensation with 8% interest from the petition filing date, with each daughter receiving 50% of the award.
