Case History
Case Summary: Shashidhara v. Branch Manager, New India Assurance Co. Ltd. The Supreme Court allowed Shashidhara's appeal against the High Court's judgment dated November 7, 2012. Shashidhara, injured as a pillion rider in an accident, had been awarded Rs. 17,33,561/- compensation by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, which the High Court reduced to Rs. 11,50,000/-. The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order and restored the Tribunal's original compensation award of Rs. 17,33,561/- with 6% interest per annum, finding the High Court's reduction unsustainable based on the case's peculiar facts and circumstances.
