    Summary The Gujarat High Court partly allowed the motor accident compensation appeal, increasing the total award from Rs. 5,23,600 to Rs. 6,83,500 with interest at 9% per annum. While upholding the tribunal's income assessment (Rs. 2,100/month) and dependency calculation, the court enhanced compensation under conventional heads—particularly loss of consortium from Rs. 50,000 to Rs. 1,93,600—applying the Supreme Court's Pranay Sethi principles, and directed the insurance company to deposit the enhanced amount within six weeks.
