    Summary The High Court of Punjab & Haryana dismissed New India Assurance Co. Ltd.'s appeal challenging a motor accident compensation award of ₹13,31,000. The court upheld the Tribunal's finding that the claimants proved negligent driving by the Haryana Roadways bus driver caused the fatal accident, rejecting the insurer's arguments about timing discrepancies and lack of vehicle identification. Additionally, the court enhanced compensation to ₹13,46,400 with 9% annual interest, recognizing omissions in the original award regarding loss of estate and consortium benefits.
