Summary of FAO/716/2004 The High Court of Punjab and Haryana partly allowed three interconnected motor accident appeals arising from a May 1997 collision. While upholding the tribunal's 50:50 contributory negligence finding, the court substantially enhanced compensation amounts. For the death claim (FAO-716-2004), compensation was increased to ₹4,44,131 after applying contemporary guidelines for income assessment and conventional heads. For the injury claims (FAO-1103-2004 and FAO-1104-2004), compensation was enhanced to ₹55,000 and ₹15,000 respectively, with 7.5% interest from petition filing date on amounts exceeding tribunal awards.
