    Case Summary: FAO/7779/2017 The High Court of Punjab & Haryana dismissed the insurance company's appeal challenging the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal's compensation award of Rs.20,69,000. However, the court enhanced the total compensation to Rs.25,69,200 after recalculating based on settled legal principles, finding the tribunal had erred in applying 50% future prospects instead of the correct 40%, underestimated the deceased's income, and failed to award adequate loss of estate and consortium amounts. The court awarded 9% interest per annum from the petition filing date until realization. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
