Case History
Case Summary: The Supreme Court disposed of United India Insurance Company's special leave petition challenging a High Court order that enhanced compensation from Rs. 2,16,000 to Rs. 3,75,000 in a 1987 motor vehicle accident case. The Court directed the insurance company to pay the full compensation to claimants Sita Rani and others (within its statutory liability limit of Rs. 1,50,000 under the 1982 Motor Vehicles Act amendment) and recover the balance from the vehicle owner, without requiring fresh execution proceedings before the Tribunal.
