SUMMARY: Sonigra Juhi Uttamchand v. D. Kumar (C.A. No. 000028/2025) The Supreme Court dismissed the insurance company's appeals seeking reduction of compensation and rejected the claimant's appeals seeking further enhancement. The Court upheld the High Court's enhanced compensation awards (Rs. 30,58,000 for father, Rs. 16,34,000 for mother, Rs. 5,00,000 for brother) granted to the sole survivor of a 2007 motor vehicle accident, holding that while certain legal corrections could be made regarding deductions and future prospects, the overall quantum represents just compensation under Section 168 of the Motor Vehicles Act, and interference would be inappropriate in the interest of justice.
