    Case Summary: OP(MV) 1396/2021 Court Decision: The Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal awarded ₹27,54,900 in compensation to the petitioners (widow, children, and mother of deceased Mr. Assain) who died from injuries sustained in a July 2021 motorcycle accident caused by rash and negligent driving of a goods carriage. The insurer (United India Insurance Co.) must pay within 30 days with 7.5% annual interest from petition filing date, with compensation distributed among beneficiaries (widow 65%, three children 10% each, mother's heirs 5%). Key Reasoning: The tribunal found the driver liable based on the police final report establishing negligence, accepted medical evidence confirming death resulted from accident injuries, applied statutory multipliers and notional income calculations (₹13,000 monthly) for dependency loss, and rejected several claimed heads (love/affection, shock/anxiety) as already covered under consortium compensation per Supreme Court precedent.
